Chirp mass In astrophysics the chirp mass of a compact binary system determines the leading-order orbital evolution of the system as a result of energy loss from emitting gravitational waves. Because the gravitational wave frequency is determined by orbital frequency, the chirp mass also determines the frequency evolut... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki?curid=35733284 |
Capped square antiprismatic molecular geometry In chemistry, the capped square antiprismatic molecular geometry describes the shape of compounds where nine atoms, groups of atoms, or ligands are arranged around a central atom, defining the vertices of a gyroelongated square pyramid. The gyroelongated square pyramid is ... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki?curid=35740250 |

Bioconcentration is the accumulation of a chemical in or on an organism when the source of chemical is solely water. is a term that was created for use in the field of aquatic toxicology. can also be defined as the process by which a chemical concentration in an aquatic organism exceeds that in water as a result of exp... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki?curid=35741423 |
Bioconcentration A partitioning model is based on assumptions that chemicals partition between water and aquatic organisms as well as the idea that chemical equilibrium exists between the organisms and the aquatic environment in which it is found can be described by a bioconcentration factor (BCF), which is the ratio o... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki?curid=35741423 |
Bioconcentration for the B and 5000 l/kg for vB criteria. A bioconcentration factor greater than 1 is indicative of a hydrophobic or lipophilic chemical. It is an indicator of how probable a chemical is to bioaccumulate. These chemicals have high lipid affinities and will concentrate in tissues with high lipid content ... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki?curid=35741423 |
Bioconcentration This is especially pertinent for conservative chemicals that are not easily metabolized into degradation products. Biomagnification of conservative chemicals such as toxic metals can be harmful to apex predators like orca whales, osprey, and bald eagles. factors facilitate predicting contamination leve... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki?curid=35741423 |
Bioconcentration The rate at which an organism is exposed through respiratory surfaces and contact with dermal surfaces of the organism, competes against the rate of excretion from an organism. The rate of excretion is a loss of chemical from the respiratory surface, growth dilution, fecal excretion, and metabolic biot... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki?curid=35741423 |
Bioconcentration An example of this is the movement of the organism may change as well as rates of excretion. If a contaminant is ionic, the change in pH that is influenced by a change in temperature may also influence the bioavailability The natural particle content as well as organic carbon content in water can affec... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki?curid=35741423 |
Kantowski–Sachs metric In general relativity the Kantowski-Sachs metric (named after Ronald Kantowski and Rainer K. Sachs) describes a homogeneous but anisotropic universe whose spatial section has the topology of formula_1. The metric is: The isometry group of this spacetime is formula_3. Remarkably, the isometry grou... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki?curid=35752296 |
