https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trajectoid
Trajectoids are a three-dimensional object designed to follow a desired path. The term was coined by Bartosz Grzybowski and his colleagues from the Institute for Basic Science in Ulsan, South Korea. A mathematical algorithm to design trajectoids was developed by researchers in South Korea and a colleague from the Unive...

Amanita virosiformis, commonly known as the narrow-spored destroying angel, is a poisonous basidiomycete fungus, one of many in the genus Amanita. Originally described from Florida, it is found from coastal North Carolina through to eastern Texas in the southeastern United States. See also List of Amanita species Lis...
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lutetium%20phosphide
Lutetium phosphide is an inorganic compound of lutetium and phosphorus with the chemical formula . The compound forms dark crystals, does not dissolve in water. Synthesis Heating powdered lutetium and red phosphorus in an inert atmosphere or vacuum: 4Lu + P4 -> 4LuP It can also be formed in the reaction of lutetium a...
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Skew%20lines
In three-dimensional geometry, skew lines are two lines that do not intersect and are not parallel. A simple example of a pair of skew lines is the pair of lines through opposite edges of a regular tetrahedron. Two lines that both lie in the same plane must either cross each other or be parallel, so skew lines can exi...

In mathematics, the Selberg integral is a generalization of Euler beta function to n dimensions introduced by Atle Selberg. Selberg's integral formula When , we have Selberg's formula implies Dixon's identity for well poised hypergeometric series, and some special cases of Dyson's conjecture. This is a corollary of ...

EUginius is an Internet-based database application for Genetically modified organisms (GMOs). The name EUginius is an acronym and stands for EUropean GMO Initiative for a Unified Database System. Development and commissioning The EUginius database was created on the initiative of the German Federal Office of Consumer...
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear%20response%20function
A linear response function describes the input-output relationship of a signal transducer, such as a radio turning electromagnetic waves into music or a neuron turning synaptic input into a response. Because of its many applications in information theory, physics and engineering there exist alternative names for specif...
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gambling%20mathematics
The mathematics of gambling is a collection of probability applications encountered in games of chance and can get included in game theory. From a mathematical point of view, the games of chance are experiments generating various types of aleatory events, and it is possible to calculate by using the properties of proba...
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marine%20One
Marine One is the call sign of any United States Marine Corps aircraft carrying the president of the United States. It usually denotes a helicopter operated by Marine Helicopter Squadron One (HMX-1) "Nighthawks", consisting of either the large Sikorsky VH-3D Sea King or the newer, smaller VH-60N "White Hawk". Both heli...
