  2. Strabismus surgery - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Strabismus_surgery

    Strabismus surgery is a one-day procedure that is usually performed under general anesthesia most commonly by either a neuro- or pediatric ophthalmologist. [1] The patient spends only a few hours in the hospital with minimal preoperative preparation. After surgery, the patient should expect soreness and redness but is generally free to return home.

  3. Triangular prism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Triangular_prism

    Triangular bipyramid. In geometry, a triangular prism or trigonal prism [1] is a prism with 2 triangular bases. If the edges pair with each triangle's vertex and if they are perpendicular to the base, it is a right triangular prism. A right triangular prism may be both semiregular and uniform . The triangular prism can be used in constructing ...

  4. Volume - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Volume

    Volume is a measure of regions in three-dimensional space. [1] It is often quantified numerically using SI derived units (such as the cubic metre and litre) or by various imperial or US customary units (such as the gallon, quart, cubic inch ). The definition of length and height (cubed) is interrelated with volume.

  5. Fixation disparity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fixation_disparity

    Fixation disparity. Fixation disparity is a tendency of the eyes to drift in the direction of the heterophoria. While the heterophoria refers to a fusion-free vergence state, the fixation disparity refers to a small misalignment of the visual axes when both eyes are open in an observer with normal fusion and binocular vision. [1]

  6. Host–guest chemistry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Host–guest_chemistry

    In supramolecular chemistry, [1] host–guest chemistry describes complexes that are composed of two or more molecules or ions that are held together in unique structural relationships by forces other than those of full covalent bonds. Host–guest chemistry encompasses the idea of molecular recognition and interactions through non-covalent ...

  7. Surface plasmon polariton - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Surface_plasmon_polariton

    Condensed matter physics. Surface plasmon polaritons ( SPPs) are electromagnetic waves that travel along a metal – dielectric or metal–air interface, practically in the infrared or visible -frequency. The term "surface plasmon polariton" explains that the wave involves both charge motion in the metal ("surface plasmon") and electromagnetic ...

  8. Fluorite - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fluorite

    Fluorite (also called fluorspar) is the mineral form of calcium fluoride, CaF 2. It belongs to the halide minerals. It crystallizes in isometric cubic habit, although octahedral and more complex isometric forms are not uncommon. The Mohs scale of mineral hardness, based on scratch hardness comparison, defines value 4 as fluorite.

  9. Quantum error correction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quantum_error_correction

    The error-correction demonstration was performed on Schrodinger-cat states encoded in a superconducting resonator, and employed a quantum controller capable of performing real-time feedback operations including read-out of the quantum information, its analysis, and the correction of its detected errors. The work demonstrated how the quantum ...
