  2. Flash photolysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flash_photolysis

    Flash photolysis is a pump-probe laboratory technique, in which a sample is first excited by a strong pulse of light from a pulsed laser of nanosecond, picosecond, or femtosecond pulse width or by another short-pulse light source such as a flash lamp.

  3. Units of energy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Units_of_energy

    In physics and chemistry, it is common to measure energy on the atomic scale in the non-SI, but convenient, units electronvolts (eV). 1 eV is equivalent to the kinetic energy acquired by an electron in passing through a potential difference of 1 volt in a vacuum. It is common to use the SI magnitude prefixes (e.g. milli-, mega- etc) with ...

  4. Joule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joule

    The energy required to accelerate a 1 kg mass at 1 m/s 2 through a distance of 1 m. The kinetic energy of a 2 kg mass travelling at 1 m/s, or a 1 kg mass travelling at 1.41 m/s. The energy required to lift an apple up 1 m, assuming the apple has a mass of 101.97 g. The heat required to raise the temperature of 0.239 g of water from 0 °C to 1 ...

    Cartesian y-axis basis unit vector unitless kinetic energy: joule (J) wave vector: radian per meter (m −1) Boltzmann constant: joule per kelvin (J/K) wavenumber: radian per meter (m −1) stiffness: newton per meter (N⋅m −1) ^ Cartesian z-axis basis unit vector

  6. Erg - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Erg

    The erg is a unit of energy equal to 10 −7 joules (100 nJ). It is not an SI unit, instead originating from the centimetre–gram–second system of units (CGS). Its name is derived from ergon (ἔργον), a Greek word meaning 'work' or 'task'. [1] An erg is the amount of work done by a force of one dyne exerted for a distance of one centimetre.

  7. Electrophoresis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrophoresis

    Electrophoresis is the basis for analytical techniques used in biochemistry and molecular biology to separate particles, molecules, or ions by size, charge, or binding affinity, either freely or through a supportive medium using a one-directional flow of electrical charge. [10] It is used extensively in DNA, RNA and protein analysis. [11]

  8. Electron microprobe - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electron_microprobe

    The electron microprobe (electron probe microanalyzer) developed from two technologies: electron microscopy — using a focused high energy electron beam to impact a target material, and X-ray spectroscopy — identification of the photons scattered from the electron beam impact, with the energy/wavelength of the photons characteristic of the atoms excited by the incident electrons.

  9. Inverse gas chromatography - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inverse_Gas_chromatography

    Inverse gas chromatography is a physical characterization analytical technique that is used in the analysis of the surfaces of solids. [1]Inverse gas chromatography or IGC is a highly sensitive and versatile gas phase technique developed over 40 years ago to study the surface and bulk properties of particulate and fibrous materials.
