  2. Actinide contraction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Actinide_contraction

    It is more pronounced than the lanthanide contraction because the 5f electrons are less effective at shielding than 4f electrons. [1] It is caused by the poor shielding effect of nuclear charge by the 5f electrons along with the expected periodic trend of increasing electronegativity and nuclear charge on moving from left to right.

  3. Simplification - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simplification

    Simplification is the process of replacing a mathematical expression by an equivalent one that is simpler (usually shorter), according to a well-founded ordering. Examples include:

  4. Five-point stencil - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Five-point_stencil

    An illustration of the five-point stencil in one and two dimensions (top, and bottom, respectively). In numerical analysis, given a square grid in one or two dimensions, the five-point stencil of a point in the grid is a stencil made up of the point itself together with its four "neighbors".

  5. Numerical differentiation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Numerical_differentiation

    The classical finite-difference approximations for numerical differentiation are ill-conditioned. However, if is a holomorphic function, real-valued on the real line, which can be evaluated at points in the complex plane near , then there are stable methods.

  6. Stretched exponential function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stretched_exponential_function

    Following the usual physical interpretation, we interpret the function argument t as time, and f β (t) is the differential distribution.The area under the curve can thus be interpreted as a mean relaxation time.

  7. Binary silicon-hydrogen compounds - Wikipedia

    hexasilane Si 6 H 14 or H 3 Si−SiH 2 −SiH 2 −SiH 2 −SiH 2 −SiH 3, 6 silicon atoms and 14 hydrogen atoms, analogous to hexane; Silanes are named by adding the suffix-silane to the appropriate numerical multiplier prefix. Hence, disilane, Si 2 H 6; trisilane Si 3 H 8; tetrasilane Si 4 H 10; pentasilane Si 5 H 12; etc.

  8. Polymorphs of silicon carbide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polymorphs_of_silicon_carbide

    The 2H-SiC structure is equivalent to that of wurtzite and is composed of only elements A and B stacked as ABABAB. The 4H-SiC unit cell is two times longer, and the second half is twisted compared to 2H-SiC, resulting in ABCB stacking. The 6H-SiC cell is three times longer than that of 2H, and the stacking sequence is ABCACB.

  9. 4,7-Dihydroisoindole - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/4,7-dihydroisoindole

    4,7-Dihydroisoindole is universally a synthon of extended porphyrins, since its isolated double bond in the annelated cyclohexene ring can allow for modification by addition or cycloaddition reactions. Addition reactions can furnish new intermediates for benzosubstituted tetrabenzoporphyrins, while the use of cycloaddition reactions can lead to ...
