  2. Hausdorff moment problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hausdorff_moment_problem

    The essential difference between this and other well-known moment problems is that this is on a bounded interval, whereas in the Stieltjes moment problem one considers a half-line [0, ∞), and in the Hamburger moment problem one considers the whole line (−∞, ∞). The Stieltjes moment problems and the Hamburger moment problems, if they are ...

  4. Momentum operator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Momentum_operator

    The derivation in three dimensions is the same, except the gradient operator del is used instead of one partial derivative. In three dimensions, the plane wave solution to Schrödinger's equation is: = and the gradient is = + + = (+ +) = where e x, e y, and e z are the unit vectors for the three spatial dimensions, hence ^ =

  5. Three-body problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Three-body_problem

    The three-body problem is a special case of the n-body problem. Historically, the first specific three-body problem to receive extended study was the one involving the Earth, the Moon, and the Sun. [2] In an extended modern sense, a three-body problem is any problem in classical mechanics or quantum mechanics that models the motion of three ...

  6. Solutions of the Einstein field equations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solutions_of_the_Einstein...

    Unfortunately, even in the simplest case of gravitational field in the vacuum (vanishing stress–energy tensor), the problem is too complex to be exactly solvable. To get physical results, we can either turn to numerical methods , try to find exact solutions by imposing symmetries , or try middle-ground approaches such as perturbation methods ...

  7. Conservation law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conservation_law

    In physics, a conservation law states that a particular measurable property of an isolated physical system does not change as the system evolves over time. Exact conservation laws include conservation of mass-energy, conservation of linear momentum, conservation of angular momentum, and conservation of electric charge.

  8. Classical central-force problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/.../Classical_central-force_problem

    In classical mechanics, the central-force problem is to determine the motion of a particle in a single central potential field.A central force is a force (possibly negative) that points from the particle directly towards a fixed point in space, the center, and whose magnitude only depends on the distance of the object to the center.

  9. Energy–momentum relation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Energy–momentum_relation

    The energy and momentum of an object measured in two inertial frames in energy–momentum space – the yellow frame measures E and p while the blue frame measures E ′ and p ′. The green arrow is the four-momentum P of an object with length proportional to its rest mass m 0.
