  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. IC50 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IC50

    EC 50 represents the dose or plasma concentration required for obtaining 50% of a maximum effect in vivo. [1] IC 50 can be determined with functional assays or with competition binding assays. Sometimes, IC 50 values are converted to the pIC50 scale.

  4. Perturbation theory (quantum mechanics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Perturbation_theory...

    In quantum mechanics, perturbation theory is a set of approximation schemes directly related to mathematical perturbation for describing a complicated quantum system in terms of a simpler one. The idea is to start with a simple system for which a mathematical solution is known, and add an additional "perturbing" Hamiltonian representing a weak ...

  5. Fine structure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fine_structure

    Relativistic corrections (Dirac) to the energy levels of a hydrogen atom from Bohr's model. The fine structure correction predicts that the Lyman-alpha line (emitted in a transition from n = 2 to n = 1) must split into a doublet. The total effect can also be obtained by using the Dirac equation. In this case, the electron is treated as non ...

  6. Euler's formula - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euler's_formula

    The two equations above can be derived by adding or subtracting Euler's formulas: e i x = cosx + i sinx , e i x = cos ⁡ ( x ) + i sin ⁡ ( x ) = cosx − i sin ⁡ x {\displaystyle {\begin{aligned}e^{ix}&=\cos x+i\sin x,\\e^{-ix}&=\cos(-x)+i\sin(-x)=\cos x-i\sin x\end{aligned}}}

  7. Eyring equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eyring_equation

    Eyring equation. The Eyring equation (occasionally also known as Eyring–Polanyi equation) is an equation used in chemical kinetics to describe changes in the rate of a chemical reaction against temperature. It was developed almost simultaneously in 1935 by Henry Eyring, Meredith Gwynne Evans and Michael Polanyi.

  8. Bolometric correction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bolometric_correction

    Bolometric correction. In astronomy, the bolometric correction is the correction made to the absolute magnitude of an object in order to convert its visible magnitude to its bolometric magnitude. It is large for stars which radiate most of their energy outside of the visible range. A uniform scale for the correction has not yet been standardized.

  9. Volume correction factor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Volume_Correction_Factor

    Formula and usage The formula for Volume Correction Factor is commonly defined as: V C F = C T L = exp ⁡ { − α T Δ T [ 1 + 0.8 α T ( Δ T + δ T ) ] } {\displaystyle VCF=C_{TL}=\exp\{-\alpha _{T}\Delta T[1+0.8\alpha _{T}(\Delta T+\delta _{T})]\}}

  10. 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.

  11. Eötvös effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eötvös_effect

    The force of gravity and the normal force. The resultant force acts as the required centripetal force. 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.
