  2. Tree of knowledge system - Wikipedia

    The ToK System embraces a view of nature as levels, but adds the notion that there are also separable dimensions of complexity. The difference becomes particularly clear in the extension of the ToK System into the Periodic Table of Behavior. The Periodic Table of Behavior (PTB) shows that natural science can be arranged in terms of the four ...

    The Physikalisch-Technische Bundesanstalt (PTB) is the national metrology institute of the Federal Republic of Germany, with scientific and technical service tasks.It is a higher federal authority and a public-law institution directly under federal government control, without legal capacity, under the auspices of the Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs and Climate Action.

    The exact date of the book's first publication is uncertain. [9] Brewer believed it was 1840 [3] but other sources suggest 1841 [3] or as late as 1847. [11] A second edition of the book was published in 1848 [11] [12] and two more in 1849. [11] A total of 47 editions were published with the 47th edition appearing in 1905. [3]

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Index_of_branches_of_science

    The branches of science, also referred to as scientific fields, scientific disciplines, or just sciences, can be arbitrarily divided into three major groups: The natural sciences ( biology , chemistry , physics , astronomy , and Earth sciences ), which study nature in the broadest sense;

  6. Point groups in three dimensions - Wikipedia

    The three-fold axes give rise to four D 3d subgroups. The three perpendicular four-fold axes of O now give D 4h subgroups, while the six two-fold axes give six D 2h subgroups. This group is isomorphic to S 4 × Z 2 (because both O and C i are normal subgroups), and is the symmetry group of the cube and octahedron. See also the isometries of the ...

  7. Three-dimensional space - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Three-dimensional_space

    In geometry, a three-dimensional space (3D space, 3-space or, rarely, tri-dimensional space) is a mathematical space in which three values (coordinates) are required to determine the position of a point. Most commonly, it is the three-dimensional Euclidean space, that is, the Euclidean space of dimension three, which models physical space.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Branches_of_science

    The branches of science, also referred to as sciences, scientific fields or scientific disciplines, are commonly divided into three major groups: . Formal sciences: the study of formal systems, such as those under the branches of logic and mathematics, which use an a priori, as opposed to empirical, methodology.

  9. Desargues configuration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Desargues_configuration

    Although it may be embedded in two dimensions, the Desargues configuration has a very simple construction in three dimensions: for any configuration of five planes in general position in Euclidean space, the ten points where three planes meet and the ten lines formed by the intersection of two of the planes together form an instance of the configuration.
