  2. Saffir–Simpson scale - Wikipedia

    So an intensity of 115 kn is rated Category 4, but the conversion to miles per hour (132.3 mph) would round down to 130 mph, making it appear to be a Category 3 storm. Likewise, an intensity of 135 kn (~155 mph, and thus Category 4) is 250.02 km/h, which, according to the definition used before the change would be Category 5. [11]

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Candela

    The 26th General Conference on Weights and Measures (CGPM) redefined the candela in 2018. [10] [11] The new definition, which took effect on 20 May 2019, is: The candela [...] is defined by taking the fixed numerical value of the luminous efficacy of monochromatic radiation of frequency 540 × 10 12 Hz, [a] K cd, to be 683 when expressed in the unit lm W −1, which is equal to cd sr W −1 ...

    The New York Times has used video games as part of its journalistic efforts, among the first publications to do so, [13] contributing to an increase in Internet traffic; [14] In the late 1990s and early 2000s, The New York Times began offering its newspaper online, and along with it the crossword puzzles, allowing readers to solve puzzles on their computers.

  6. Inverse-square law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inverse-square_law

    The energy or intensity decreases (divided by 4) as the distance r is doubled; if measured in dB would decrease by 6.02 dB per doubling of distance. When referring to measurements of power quantities, a ratio can be expressed as a level in decibels by evaluating ten times the base-10 logarithm of the ratio of the measured quantity to the ...

  7. Proton Synchrotron - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Proton_Synchrotron

    The linear accelerator, now serving the PSB, was replaced in 1978 by Linac 2, leading to an further increase in intensity. [7] During this period acceleration of light ions entered the scene. Linac 1, which was replaced by Linac 2, was equipped to accelerate deuterons that were accelerated in the PS, and transferred to the ISR where they ...

  8. δ13C - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Δ13C

    An increase in primary productivity causes a corresponding rise in δ 13 C values as more 12 C is locked up in plants. This signal is also a function of the amount of carbon burial; when organic carbon is buried, more 12 C is locked out of the system in sediments than the background ratio.
