https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Normal%20form%20%28dynamical%20systems%29 | In mathematics, the normal form of a dynamical system is a simplified form that can be useful in determining the system's behavior.
Normal forms are often used for determining local bifurcations in a system. All systems exhibiting a certain type of bifurcation are locally (around the equilibrium) topologically equival... |

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tyndall%20effect | The Tyndall effect is light scattering by particles in a colloid such as a very fine suspension (a sol). Also known as Tyndall scattering, it is similar to Rayleigh scattering, in that the intensity of the scattered light is inversely proportional to the fourth power of the wavelength, so blue light is scattered much m... |

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Branching%20order%20of%20bacterial%20phyla%20%28Rappe%20and%20Giovanoni%2C%202003%29 | There are several models of the Branching order of bacterial phyla, the most cited of these was proposed in 1987 paper by Carl Woese. This cladogram was later expanded by Rappé and Giovanoni in 2003 to include newly discovered phyla. Clear names are added in parentheses, see list of bacterial phyla.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Signal%20reconstruction | In signal processing, reconstruction usually means the determination of an original continuous signal from a sequence of equally spaced samples.
This article takes a generalized abstract mathematical approach to signal sampling and reconstruction. For a more practical approach based on band-limited signals, see Whitt... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Red-suffusion%20rosy-faced%20lovebird%20mutation | The red-suffusion rose-faced lovebird (Agapornis roseicollis), also known as the red-pied lovebird, is not a true colour mutation of lovebird species. Many breeders believe it is due to a health issue, most likely dealing with the bird's liver. Some think the red-pied has some genetic relations with the Lutino rosy-fac... |
