https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thiodictyon | Thiodictyon is a genus of gram-negative bacterium classified within purple sulfur bacteria (PSB).
T. elegans forms "netlike aggregates under certain culture conditions." It is obligately phototrophic and strictly anaerobic.
T. bacillosum does not form netlike aggregates, only clumps.
"Ca. T. syntrophicum" grows bes... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Necrobiome | The necrobiome has been defined as the community of species associated with decaying corpse remains. The process of decomposition is complex. Microbes decompose cadavers, but other organisms including fungi, nematodes, insects, and larger scavenger animals also contribute. Once the immune system is no longer active, mi... |

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fully%20Buffered%20DIMM | Fully Buffered DIMM (or FB-DIMM) is a memory technology that can be used to increase reliability and density of memory systems. Unlike the parallel bus architecture of traditional DRAMs, an FB-DIMM has a serial interface between the memory controller and the advanced memory buffer (AMB). Conventionally, data lines from... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quantum%20speed%20limit | In quantum mechanics, a quantum speed limit (QSL) is a limitation on the minimum time for a quantum system to evolve between two distinguishable states. QSL are closely related to time-energy uncertainty relations. In 1945, Leonid Mandelstam and Igor Tamm derived a time-energy uncertainty relation that bounds the speed... |

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Earnshaw%27s%20theorem | Earnshaw's theorem states that a collection of point charges cannot be maintained in a stable stationary equilibrium configuration solely by the electrostatic interaction of the charges. This was first proven by British mathematician Samuel Earnshaw in 1842.
It is usually cited in reference to magnetic fields, but was ... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Asymmetric%20bacterium | Asymmetric bacteria are bacteria that undergo "non-symmetrical" life cycles. This especially includes those that differentiate temporally, such as prosthecate bacteria.
History
Cell division asymmetries have appeared alongside the evolution of complex developmental processes. While bacteria were historically consider... |

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eduard%20Heine | Heinrich Eduard Heine (16 March 1821 – 21 October 1881) was a German mathematician.
Heine became known for results on special functions and in real analysis. In particular, he authored an important treatise on spherical harmonics and Legendre functions (Handbuch der Kugelfunctionen). He also investigated basic hyperge... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ZHLS-GF | ZHLS-GF (Zone-Based Hierarchical Link State Routing Protocol with Gateway Flooding) is a hybrid routing protocol for computer networks that is based on ZHLS.
In ZHLS, all network nodes construct two routing tables — an intra-zone routing table and an inter-zone routing table — by flooding NodeLSPs within the zone and... |
