  2. Scattering parameters - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scattering_parameters

    The RF Toolbox add-on to MATLAB [26] and several books (for example "Network scattering parameters" [27]) use this last definition, so caution is necessary. The "From S to T" and "From T to S" paragraphs in this article are based on the first definition. Adaptation to the second definition is trivial (interchanging T11 for T22, and T12 for T21 ...

  3. List of common physics notations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_common_physics...

    Meaning SI unit of measure alpha: alpha particle: angular acceleration: radian per second squared (rad/s 2) fine-structure constant: unitless beta: velocity in terms of the speed of light c: unitless beta particle: gamma: Lorentz factor: unitless photon: gamma ray: shear strain: radian

  4. Thermophoresis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermophoresis

    When they collide with the large, slower-moving particles of the tobacco smoke they push the latter away from the rod. The force that has pushed the smoke particles away from the rod is an example of a thermophoretic force, as the mean free path of air at ambient conditions is 68 nm [2] and the characteristic length scales are between 100 ...

  5. S-matrix - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/S-matrix

    In physics, the S-matrix or scattering matrix is a matrix that relates the initial state and the final state of a physical system undergoing a scattering process.It is used in quantum mechanics, scattering theory and quantum field theory (QFT).

  6. Physical coefficient - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Physical_coefficient

    Partition coefficient (K D) - The ratio of concentrations of a compound in two phases of a mixture of two immiscible solvents at equilibrium. Hall coefficient (electrical physics) - Relates a magnetic field applied to an element to the voltage created, the amount of current and the element thickness. It is a characteristic of the material from ...

  7. Temperature coefficient - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Temperature_coefficient

    Therefore, many materials that produce acceptable values of include materials that have been alloyed or possess variable negative temperature coefficient (NTC), which occurs when a physical property (such as thermal conductivity or electrical resistivity) of a material lowers with increasing temperature, typically in a defined temperature range ...

  8. Heat transfer coefficient - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heat_transfer_coefficient

    The heat transfer coefficient is often calculated from the Nusselt number (a dimensionless number). There are also online calculators available specifically for Heat-transfer fluid applications. Experimental assessment of the heat transfer coefficient poses some challenges especially when small fluxes are to be measured (e.g. < 0.2 W/cm 2). [1] [2]

  9. Talk:Reflection coefficient - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Reflection_coefficient

    If you accept that the reflection coefficient is equivalent to the S11 scattering parameter of the load, and that Z0 is the impedance the load sees looking out of its port, i.e. the source impedance, then the formula as written contradicts the definition of S11 (see Scattering_parameters). S11 is defined as b1/a1; a1 is defined as (1/2) K1 (V1 ...
