  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. Dynkin's formula - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dynkin's_formula

    The strategy is to apply Dynkin's formula with X = B, τ = σ j = min(j, τ K), and a compactly-supported C 2 f with f(x) = |x| 2 on K. The generator of Brownian motion is Δ/2, where Δ denotes the Laplacian operator .

    The generator A for standard n-dimensional Brownian motion B, which satisfies the stochastic differential equation dX t = dB t, is given by A f ( x ) = 1 2 ∑ i , j δ i j ∂ 2 f ∂ x i ∂ x j ( x ) = 1 2 ∑ i ∂ 2 f ∂ x i 2 ( x ) {\displaystyle Af(x)={\tfrac {1}{2}}\sum _{i,j}\delta _{ij}{\frac {\partial ^{2}f}{\partial x_{i}\,\partial ...

  5. 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.

    All two bit errors separated by a distance less than the order of the primitive polynomial which is a factor of the generator polynomial will be detected. The error polynomial in the two bit case is E ( x ) = x i + x k = x k ⋅ ( x i − k + 1 ) , i > k {\displaystyle E(x)=x^{i}+x^{k}=x^{k}\cdot (x^{i-k}+1),\;i>k} .

  9. Aberration (astronomy) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aberration_(astronomy)

    Aberration (astronomy) A diagram showing how the apparent position of a star viewed from the Earth can change depending on the Earth's velocity. The effect is typically much smaller than illustrated. In astronomy, aberration (also referred to as astronomical aberration, stellar aberration, or velocity aberration) is a phenomenon where celestial ...

  10. 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.

  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.
