X-Ray is a reference tool, introduced in September 2011, [1] that is incorporated in the Amazon Kindle Touch and later models, Kindle apps for mobile platforms, Amazon Fire tablets, Fire TVs and Amazon Prime Video streaming apps, and the discontinued Fire Phone. On the Kindle, general reference information is preloaded into a small file on the ...
Natural color X-ray photogram of a wine scene. Note the edges of hollow cylinders as compared to the solid candle. William Coolidge explains medical imaging and X-rays.. An X-ray (also known in many languages as Röntgen radiation) is a form of high-energy electromagnetic radiation with a wavelength shorter than those of ultraviolet rays and longer than those of gamma rays.
X.Org Server is the free and open-source implementation of the X Window System (X11) display server stewarded by the X.Org Foundation.. Implementations of the client-side X Window System protocol exist in the form of X11 libraries, which serve as helpful APIs for communicating with the X server. [4]
In higher dimensions, the X-ray transform of a function is defined by integrating over lines rather than over hyperplanes as in the Radon transform. The X-ray transform derives its name from X-ray tomography (used in CT scans ) because the X-ray transform of a function ƒ represents the attenuation data of a tomographic scan through an ...
X-ray crystal truncation rod scattering is a powerful method in surface science, based on analysis of surface X-ray diffraction (SXRD) patterns from a crystalline surface. For an infinite crystal , the diffracted pattern is concentrated in Dirac delta function like Bragg peaks .
Germfree Adolescents is the 1978 debut album of English punk rock band X-Ray Spex.It contained the UK hit singles "The Day the World Turned Dayglo" (No. 23 in April 1978), "Identity" (No. 24 in July 1978) and "Germ Free Adolescents" which reached No. 18 in November 1978.
Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer, commonly known as IXPE or SMEX-14, is a space observatory with three identical telescopes designed to measure the polarization of cosmic X-rays of black holes, neutron stars, and pulsars. [6]
A Chandra image of NGC 4485 and NGC 4490: two potential ULXs. In astronomy and astrophysics, an ultraluminous X-ray source (ULX) is less luminous than an active galactic nucleus but more consistently luminous than any known stellar process (over 10 39 erg/s, or 10 32 watts), assuming that it radiates isotropically (the same in all directions).
