  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. 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.

  4. 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 ...

  6. Fission barrier - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fission_Barrier

    This releases a small amount of neutrons and prompt gamma radiation, followed by the beta decay of the lighter nuclei with additional gamma radiation released. [1] In nuclear physics and nuclear chemistry, the fission barrier is the activation energy required for a nucleus of an atom to undergo fission. This barrier may also be defined as the ...
