  2. Light-dependent reactions - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Light-dependent_reactions

    Cyclic phosphorylation is important to create ATP and maintain NADPH in the right proportion for the light-independent reactions. The net-reaction of all light-dependent reactions in oxygenic photosynthesis is: 2 H 2 O + 2 NADP + + 3ADP + 3P i → O 2 + 2 H + + 2NADPH + 3ATP. PSI and PSII are light-harvesting complexes.

    2. In any given inertial frame, the velocity of light c is the same whether the light be emitted by a body at rest or by a body in uniform motion. [Emphasis added by editor] [12]: 140–141 Einstein's wording of the first postulate was one with which nearly all theorists of his day could agree.

  4. Calvin cycle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calvin_cycle

    The Calvin cycle, light-independent reactions, bio synthetic phase, dark reactions, or photosynthetic carbon reduction (PCR) cycle [1] of photosynthesis is a series of chemical reactions that convert carbon dioxide and hydrogen-carrier compounds into glucose. The Calvin cycle is present in all photosynthetic eukaryotes and also many ...

    Unlike most chemical reactions, the product C converts to a further product, which is produced in an electronically excited state often indicated with an asterisk: A + B → C C → D* D* then emits a photon (hν), to give the ground state of D: [1] I D* → D + hν. In theory, one photon of light should be given off for each molecule of reactant.

  7. Photosynthesis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Photosynthesis

    Photosynthesis occurs in two stages. In the first stage, light-dependent reactions or light reactions capture the energy of light and use it to make the hydrogen carrier NADPH and the energy-storage molecule ATP. During the second stage, the light-independent reactions use these products to capture and reduce carbon dioxide.

  8. Hill reaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hill_reaction

    A diagram of the Hill reaction which shows with the usage of an artificial electron acceptor such as DCPIP, and the chloroplast is subjected to light there is a release of oxygen, Also with the absence of CO 2 there is no sugar production A diagram of the Hill reaction taking place under dark conditions there is no oxygen emitted and the no ...

  9. Cherenkov detector - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cherenkov_detector

    Most Cherenkov detectors aim at recording the Cherenkov light produced by a primary charged particle. Some sensor technologies explicitly aim at Cherenkov light produced (also) by secondary particles, be it incoherent emission as occurring in an electromagnetic particle shower or by coherent emission, for example Askaryan effect.
