  2. Radiation chemistry - Wikipedia

    Finally, the solvated electron can react with solutes such as solvated protons or oxygen molecules to form hydrogen atoms and dioxygen radical anions, respectively. The fact that oxygen changes the radiation chemistry might be one reason why oxygenated tissues are more sensitive to irradiation than the deoxygenated tissue at the center of a tumor.

  3. Elementary particle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elementary_particle

    Unlike the electromagnetic force, which diminishes as charged particles separate, color-charged particles feel increasing force. Nonetheless, color-charged particles may combine to form color neutral composite particles called hadrons. A quark may pair up with an antiquark: the quark has a color and the antiquark has the corresponding anticolor.

  4. Quantum entanglement - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quantum_entanglement

    Quantum entanglement is the phenomenon of a group of particles being generated, interacting, or sharing spatial proximity in a manner such that the quantum state of each particle of the group cannot be described independently of the state of the others, including when the particles are separated by a large distance.

  5. React (software) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/React_(software)

    React (also known as React.js or ReactJS) is a free and open-source front-end JavaScript library [5] [6] that aims to make building user interfaces based on components more "seamless". [5] It is maintained by Meta (formerly Facebook) and a community of individual developers and companies.

  6. Alpha particle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alpha_particle

    Alpha particles, also called alpha rays or alpha radiation, consist of two protons and two neutrons bound together into a particle identical to a helium-4 nucleus. [5] They are generally produced in the process of alpha decay but may also be produced in different ways. Alpha particles are named after the first letter in the Greek alphabet, α.

  7. Nuclear reaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nuclear_reaction

    The term "nuclear reaction" may refer either to a change in a nuclide induced by collision with another particle or to a spontaneous change of a nuclide without collision. Natural nuclear reactions occur in the interaction between cosmic rays and matter, and nuclear reactions can be employed artificially to obtain nuclear energy, at an ...

  8. Collision theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Collision_theory

    For particles in a solution, an example model to calculate the collision frequency and associated coagulation rate is the Smoluchowski coagulation equation proposed by Marian Smoluchowski in a seminal 1916 publication. [4] In this model, Fick's flux at the infinite time limit is used to mimic the particle speed of the collision theory.

  9. Standard Model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Standard_Model

    It is weak and short-range, due to the fact that the weak mediating particles, W and Z bosons, have mass. W bosons have electric charge and mediate interactions that change the particle type (referred to as flavor) and charge. Interactions mediated by W bosons are charged current interactions. Z bosons are neutral and mediate neutral current ...
