https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trojan%20wave%20packet | A trojan wave packet is a wave packet that is nonstationary and nonspreading. It is part of an artificially created system that consists of a nucleus and one or more electron wave packets, and that is highly excited under a continuous electromagnetic field. Its discovery as one of significant contributions to the Quant... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coarse%20structure | In the mathematical fields of geometry and topology, a coarse structure on a set X is a collection of subsets of the cartesian product X × X with certain properties which allow the large-scale structure of metric spaces and topological spaces to be defined.
The concern of traditional geometry and topology is with the ... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flag%20of%20the%20Estonian%20Soviet%20Socialist%20Republic | The flag of the Estonian Soviet Socialist Republic was officially adopted by the former Soviet Union in 1940. It showed a set of Communist symbols: a yellow hammer and sickle on a red field and, after official change of the flag's design in 1953, also an outlined yellow star, above a band of water waves near the bottom... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vaporific%20effect | Vaporific effect is a flash fire resulting from the impact of high velocity projectiles with metallic objects. Impacts produce particulate matter originating from either the projectile, the target, or both. Particles heated from the force of impact can burn in the presence of air (oxidizer). An explosion can result fro... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Convergence%20proof%20techniques | Convergence proof techniques are canonical components of mathematical proofs that sequences or functions converge to a finite limit when the argument tends to infinity.
There are many types of series and modes of convergence requiring different techniques. Below are some of the more common examples. This article is ... |

Established in 2015, it was founded by Jennifer Lee and Yiying Lu. Emojination’s motto is “Emoji by the people, for the people” and the founders help individuals to submit emoji... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Silly%20Putty | Silly Putty is a toy containing silicone polymers that have unusual physical properties. It bounces, but it breaks when given a sharp blow, and it can also flow like a liquid. It contains viscoelastic liquid silicones, a type of non-Newtonian fluid, which makes it act as a viscous liquid over a long time period but as ... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Edward%20Dwelly | Edward Dwelly (1864–1939) was an English lexicographer and genealogist. He created the authoritative dictionary of Scottish Gaelic, and his work has had an influence on Irish Gaelic lexicography. He also practised as a professional genealogist and published transcripts of many original documents relating to Somerset.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frobenius%20theorem%20%28real%20division%20algebras%29 | In mathematics, more specifically in abstract algebra, the Frobenius theorem, proved by Ferdinand Georg Frobenius in 1877, characterizes the finite-dimensional associative division algebras over the real numbers. According to the theorem, every such algebra is isomorphic to one of the following:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reflection%20principle%20%28Wiener%20process%29 | In the theory of probability for stochastic processes, the reflection principle for a Wiener process states that if the path of a Wiener process f(t) reaches a value f(s) = a at time t = s, then the subsequent path after time s has the same distribution as the reflection of the subsequent path about the value a.
