  2. Prism correction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prism_correction

    Thus a prism of 1 Δ would produce 1 cm visible displacement at 100 cm, or 1 meter. This can be represented mathematically as: = ⁡ where is the amount of prism correction in prism dioptres, and is the angle of deviation of the light.

  3. Formula for primes - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Formula_for_primes

    In number theory, a formula for primes is a formula generating the prime numbers, exactly and without exception. Formulas for calculating primes do exist, however, they are computationally very slow. A number of constraints are known, showing what such a "formula" can and cannot be.

  4. Cauchy's equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cauchy's_equation

    The most general form of Cauchy's equation is. where n is the refractive index, λ is the wavelength, A, B, C, etc., are coefficients that can be determined for a material by fitting the equation to measured refractive indices at known wavelengths.

  5. Free-air gravity anomaly - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Free-air_gravity_anomaly

    The free air correction is calculated from Newton's Law, as a rate of change of gravity with distance: g = G M R 2 d g d R = − 2 G M R 3 = − 2 g R {\displaystyle {\begin{aligned}g&={\frac {GM}{R^{2}}}\\{\frac {dg}{dR}}&=-{\frac {2GM}{R^{3}}}=-{\frac {2g}{R}}\end{aligned}}}

  6. Infinitesimal generator (stochastic processes) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Infinitesimal_generator...

    The Ornstein–Uhlenbeck process on , which satisfies the stochastic differential equation = +, has generator: A f ( x ) = θ ( μ − x ) f ′ ( x ) + σ 2 2 f ″ ( x ) {\displaystyle {\mathcal {A}}f(x)=\theta (\mu -x)f'(x)+{\frac {\sigma ^{2}}{2}}f''(x)}

  7. Esophoria - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Esophoria

    Esophoria is an eye condition involving inward deviation of the eye, usually due to extra-ocular muscle imbalance. It is a type of heterophoria. Cause. Causes include: Refractive errors; Divergence insufficiency; Convergence excess; this can be due to nerve, muscle, congenital or mechanical anomalies.

  8. Dirac equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dirac_equation

    Both the Dirac equation and the Adjoint Dirac equation can be obtained from (varying) the action with a specific Lagrangian density that is given by: L = i ℏ c ψ ¯ γ μ ∂ μ ψ − m c 2 ψ ¯ ψ {\displaystyle {\mathcal {L}}=i\hbar c{\overline {\psi }}\gamma ^{\mu }\partial _{\mu }\psi -mc^{2}{\overline {\psi }}\psi }

  9. Hagen–Poiseuille equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hagen–Poiseuille_equation

    This is exactly Ohm's law, where the resistance R = V / I is described by the formula R = 8 μ L n 2 π r 4 ( q ∗ ) 2 {\displaystyle R={\frac {8\mu L}{n^{2}\pi r^{4}\left(q^{*}\right)^{2}}}} . It follows that the resistance R is proportional to the length L of the resistor, which is true.

  10. List of relativistic equations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_relativistic_equations

    Lorentz transformation. The following notations are used very often in special relativity: Lorentz factor. where and v is the relative velocity between two inertial frames . For two frames at rest, γ = 1, and increases with relative velocity between the two inertial frames. As the relative velocity approaches the speed of light, γ → ∞.

  11. Eötvös effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eötvös_effect

    The mathematical derivation for the Eötvös effect for motion along the Equator explains the factor 2 in the first term of the Eötvös correction formula. What remains to be explained is the cosine factor. Because of its rotation, the Earth is not spherical in shape, there is an Equatorial bulge.
