https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biological%20rhythm | Biological rhythms are repetitive biological processes. Some types of biological rhythms have been described as biological clocks. They can range in frequency from microseconds to less than one repetitive event per decade. Biological rhythms are studied by chronobiology. In the biochemical context biological rhythms ar... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermal%20shock | Thermal shock is a phenomenon characterized by a rapid change in temperature that results in a transient mechanical load on an object. The load is caused by the differential expansion of different parts of the object due to the temperature change. This differential expansion can be understood in terms of strain, rather... |

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Double%20electron%20capture | Double electron capture is a decay mode of an atomic nucleus. For a nuclide (A, Z) with a number of nucleons A and atomic number Z, double electron capture is only possible if the mass of the nuclide (A, Z−2) is lower.
In this mode of decay, two of the orbital electrons are captured via the weak interaction by two pro... |
