https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quadrupole%20splitting | Quadrupole splitting is an example of a hyperfine interaction found in gamma-ray spectroscopy, in the circumstance where nuclei with a non-radially-symmetric shape (that is, with a spin quantum number greater than 1/2) are found immersed in an external electric field gradient. It splits a state into two, producing a d... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/C12orf66 | C12orf66 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the C12orf66 gene. The C12orf66 protein is one of four proteins in the KICSTOR protein complex which negatively regulates mechanistic target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1) signaling.
Gene
C12orf66 is located on the minus strand in the locus 12q14.2. C12orf66 variant... |

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metzler%20matrix | In mathematics, a Metzler matrix is a matrix in which all the off-diagonal components are nonnegative (equal to or greater than zero):
It is named after the American economist Lloyd Metzler.
Metzler matrices appear in stability analysis of time delayed differential equations and positive linear dynamical systems. ... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Normal%20element | In mathematics, an element x of a *-algebra is normal if it satisfies
This definition stems from the definition of a normal linear operator in functional analysis, where a linear operator A from a Hilbert space into itself is called unitary if where the adjoint of A is A and the domain of A is the same as that of... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/It%C3%B4%20calculus | Itô calculus, named after Kiyosi Itô, extends the methods of calculus to stochastic processes such as Brownian motion (see Wiener process). It has important applications in mathematical finance and stochastic differential equations.
The central concept is the Itô stochastic integral, a stochastic generalization of the... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flick%20%28physics%29 | In optical engineering and telecommunications engineering, the flick is a unit of spectral radiance. One flick corresponds to a spectral radiance of 1 watt per steradian per square centimeter of surface per micrometer of span in wavelength (W·sr−1·cm−2·μm−1). This is equivalent to 1010 watts per steradian per cubic m... |

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Object%20permanence | Object permanence is the understanding that whether an object can be sensed has no effect on whether it continues to exist. This is a fundamental concept studied in the field of developmental psychology, the subfield of psychology that addresses the development of young children's social and mental capacities. There is... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Let%20expression | In computer science, a "let" expression associates a function definition with a restricted scope.
The "let" expression may also be defined in mathematics, where it associates a Boolean condition with a restricted scope.
The "let" expression may be considered as a lambda abstraction applied to a value. Within mathema... |
