    [citation needed] In a close-packed structure there are 4 atoms per unit cell and it will have 4 octahedral voids (1:1 ratio) and 8 tetrahedral voids (1:2 ratio) per unit cell. [1] The tetrahedral void is smaller in size and could fit an atom with a radius 0.225 times the size of the atoms making up the lattice.

  3. List of voids - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_voids

    Voids are particularly galaxy-poor regions of space between filaments, making up the large-scale structure of the universe. Some voids are known as supervoids . In the tables, z is the cosmological redshift , c the speed of light , and h the dimensionless Hubble parameter , which has a value of approximately 0.7 (the Hubble constant H 0 = h × ...

  4. Close-packing of equal spheres - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Close-packing_of_equal_spheres

    The distance between the centers along the shortest path namely that straight line will therefore be r 1 + r 2 where r 1 is the radius of the first sphere and r 2 is the radius of the second. In close packing all of the spheres share a common radius, r. Therefore, two centers would simply have a distance 2r.

  5. Euclidean distance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euclidean_distance

    That is (unlike road distance with one-way streets) the distance between two points does not depend on which of the two points is the start and which is the destination. [12] It is positive, meaning that the distance between every two distinct points is a positive number, while the distance from any point to itself is zero. [12]

  6. Tetrahedron - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tetrahedron

    The central angle between any two vertices of a perfect tetrahedron is arccos(− ⁠ 1 / 3 ⁠), or approximately 109.47°. [39] Water, H 2 O, also has a tetrahedral structure, with two hydrogen atoms and two lone pairs of electrons around the central oxygen atoms. Its tetrahedral symmetry is not perfect, however, because the lone pairs repel ...

  7. Lp space - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lp_space

    The Euclidean distance between two points and is the length ‖ ‖ of the straight line between the two points. In many situations, the Euclidean distance is appropriate for capturing the actual distances in a given space.

  8. Void (astronomy) - Wikipedia

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

    1978 – The first two papers on the topic of voids in the large-scale structure were published referencing voids found in the foreground of the Coma/A1367 clusters. [ 10 ] [ 14 ] 1981 – Discovery of a large void in the Boötes region of the sky that was nearly 50 h −1 Mpc in diameter (which was later recalculated to be about 34 h −1 Mpc).

  9. Delaunay triangulation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Delaunay_triangulation

    For four or more points on the same circle (e.g., the vertices of a rectangle) the Delaunay triangulation is not unique: each of the two possible triangulations that split the quadrangle into two triangles satisfies the "Delaunay condition", i.e., the requirement that the circumcircles of all triangles have empty interiors.
