  3. Crystal structure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crystal_structure

    The shift of one node in a more dense direction requires a lesser distortion of the crystal lattice. Some directions and planes are defined by symmetry of the crystal system. In monoclinic, trigonal, tetragonal, and hexagonal systems there is one unique axis (sometimes called the principal axis ) which has higher rotational symmetry than the ...

  4. List of Wenninger polyhedron models - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Wenninger...

    This is an indexed list of the uniform and stellated polyhedra from the book Polyhedron Models, by Magnus Wenninger.. The book was written as a guide book to building polyhedra as physical models.

  5. Angular defect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Angular_defect

    The defect of any of the vertices of a regular dodecahedron (in which three regular pentagons meet at each vertex) is 36°, or π/5 radians, or 1/10 of a circle. Each of the angles measures 108°; three of these meet at each vertex, so the defect is 360° − (108° + 108° + 108°) = 36°.

  6. Ideal polyhedron - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ideal_polyhedron

    This fact can be used to calculate the dihedral angles themselves for a regular or edge-symmetric ideal polyhedron (in which all these angles are equal), by counting how many edges meet at each vertex: an ideal regular tetrahedron, cube or dodecahedron, with three edges per vertex, has dihedral angles = / = (), an ideal regular octahedron or ...

  7. Deltoidal icositetrahedron - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deltoidal_icositetrahedron

    The deltoidal icositetrahedron is a member of a family of duals to the uniform polyhedra related to the cube and regular octahedron. When projected onto a sphere (see right), it can be seen that the edges make up the edges of a cube and regular octahedron arranged in their dual positions. It can also be seen that the 3- and 4-fold corners can ...

  8. Jahn–Teller effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jahn–Teller_effect

    The Jahn–Teller effect (JT effect or JTE) is an important mechanism of spontaneous symmetry breaking in molecular and solid-state systems which has far-reaching consequences in different fields, and is responsible for a variety of phenomena in spectroscopy, stereochemistry, crystal chemistry, molecular and solid-state physics, and materials science.

  9. Regular 4-polytope - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Regular_4-polytope

    The tesseract is one of 6 convex regular 4-polytopes. In mathematics, a regular 4-polytope or regular polychoron is a regular four-dimensional polytope.They are the four-dimensional analogues of the regular polyhedra in three dimensions and the regular polygons in two dimensions.
