  2. Molecular vibration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Molecular_vibration

    A molecular vibration is a periodic motion of the atoms of a molecule relative to each other, such that the center of mass of the molecule remains unchanged. The typical vibrational frequencies range from less than 10 13 Hz to approximately 10 14 Hz, corresponding to wavenumbers of approximately 300 to 3000 cm −1 and wavelengths of approximately 30 to 3 μm.

  3. IUPAC numerical multiplier - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IUPAC_numerical_multiplier

    The numbers 200-900 would be confused easily with 22 to 29 if they were used in chemistry. khīlioi = 1000, diskhīlioi = 2000, triskhīlioi = 3000, etc. 13 to 19 are formed by starting with the Greek word for the number of ones, followed by και (the Greek word for 'and'), followed by δέκα (the Greek word for 'ten').

  4. Multi-wavelength anomalous diffraction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multi-wavelength_anomalous...

    Multi-wavelength anomalous diffraction (sometimes Multi-wavelength anomalous dispersion; abbreviated MAD) is a technique used in X-ray crystallography that facilitates the determination of the three-dimensional structure of biological macromolecules (e.g. DNA, drug receptors) via solution of the phase problem.

  5. Major seventh chord - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Major_seventh_chord

    In music, a major seventh chord is a seventh chord in which the third is a major third above the root and the seventh is a major seventh above the root. The major seventh chord, sometimes also called a Delta chord, can be written as maj 7, M 7, Δ, ⑦, etc. The "7" does not have to be superscripted, but if it is, then any alterations, added ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glossary_of_chemistry_terms

    This glossary of chemistry terms is a list of terms and definitions relevant to chemistry, including chemical laws, diagrams and formulae, laboratory tools, glassware, and equipment. Chemistry is a physical science concerned with the composition, structure, and properties of matter , as well as the changes it undergoes during chemical reactions ...

  7. MUSIC (algorithm) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MUSIC_(algorithm)

    MUSIC is a generalization of Pisarenko's method, and it reduces to Pisarenko's method when = +. In Pisarenko's method, only a single eigenvector is used to form the denominator of the frequency estimation function; and the eigenvector is interpreted as a set of autoregressive coefficients, whose zeros can be found analytically or with ...

  8. Scientific pitch notation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scientific_pitch_notation

    Scientific pitch notation is often used to specify the range of an instrument. It provides an unambiguous means of identifying a note in terms of textual notation rather than frequency, while at the same time avoiding the transposition conventions that are used in writing the music for instruments such as the clarinet and guitar.

  9. Delta baryon - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Delta_baryon

    The Delta states discussed here are only the lowest-mass quantum excitations of the proton and neutron. At higher spins , additional higher mass Delta states appear, all defined by having constant ⁠ 3 / 2 ⁠ or ⁠ 1 / 2 ⁠ isospin (depending on charge), but with spin ⁠ 3 / 2 ⁠ , ⁠ 5 / 2 ⁠ , ⁠ 7 / 2 ⁠ , ..., ⁠ 11 / 2 ...
