https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elliptic%20algebra | In algebra, an elliptic algebra is a certain regular algebra of a Gelfand–Kirillov dimension three (quantum polynomial ring in three variables) that corresponds to a cubic divisor in the projective space P2. If the cubic divisor happens to be an elliptic curve, then the algebra is called a Sklyanin algebra. The notion ... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrophysiological%20techniques%20for%20clinical%20diagnosis | Clinical Electrophysiological Testing is based on techniques derived from electrophysiology used for the clinical diagnosis of patients.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Strange%20star | A strange star is a hypothetical astronomical object, a quark star made of strange quark matter.
Strange stars might exist without regard to the Bodmer–Witten assumption of stability at near-zero temperatures and pressures, as strange quark matter might form and remain stable at the core of neutron stars, in the same ... |

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oscillator%20sync | Oscillator sync is a feature in some synthesizers with two or more VCOs, DCOs, or "virtual" oscillators. As one oscillator finishes a cycle, it resets the period of another oscillator, forcing the latter to have the same base frequency. This can produce a harmonically rich sound, the timbre of which can be altered by v... |

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Evolution%20of%20seed%20size | The first seeded plants emerged in the late Devonian 370 million years ago. Selection pressures shaping seed size stem from physical and biological sources including drought, predation, seedling-seedling competition, optimal dormancy depth, and dispersal.
History
Since the evolution of the first seeded plants ~370 mi... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/New%20digraph%20reconstruction%20conjecture | The reconstruction conjecture of Stanisław Ulam is one of the best-known open problems in graph theory. Using the terminology of Frank Harary it can be stated as follows: If G and H are two graphs on at least three vertices and ƒ is a bijection from V(G) to V(H) such that G\{v} and H\{ƒ(v)} are isomorphic for all verti... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solar2D | Solar2D (formerly Corona SDK) is a free and open-source, cross-platform software development kit originally developed by Corona Labs Inc. and now maintained by Vlad Shcherban. Released in late 2009, it allows software programmers to build 2D mobile applications for iOS, Android, and Kindle, desktop applications for Win... |

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capillary%20fringe | The capillary fringe is the subsurface layer in which groundwater seeps up from a water table by capillary action to fill pores. Pores at the base of the capillary fringe are filled with water due to tension saturation. This saturated portion of the capillary fringe is less than the total capillary rise because of the ... |
