  2. Linear energy transfer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear_energy_transfer

    Diffusion cloud chamber with tracks of ionizing radiation (alpha particles) that are made visible as strings of droplets. In dosimetry, linear energy transfer (LET) is the amount of energy that an ionizing particle transfers to the material traversed per unit distance.

  3. Primitive element theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Primitive_element_theorem

    Let / be a field extension.An element is a primitive element for / if = (), i.e. if every element of can be written as a rational function in with coefficients in .If there exists such a primitive element, then / is referred to as a simple extension.

    The theorem is also known variously as the Hermite–Lindemann theorem and the Hermite–Lindemann–Weierstrass theorem.Charles Hermite first proved the simpler theorem where the α i exponents are required to be rational integers and linear independence is only assured over the rational integers, [4] [5] a result sometimes referred to as Hermite's theorem. [6]

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beth_number

    Beth numbers are defined by transfinite recursion: =, + =, = {: <}, where is an ordinal and is a limit ordinal. [1]The cardinal = is the cardinality of any countably infinite set such as the set of natural numbers, so that = | |.

  6. Aleph number - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aleph_number

    Notably, ℵ ω is the first uncountable cardinal number that can be demonstrated within Zermelo–Fraenkel set theory not to be equal to the cardinality of the set of all real numbers 2 ℵ 0: For any natural number n ≥ 1, we can consistently assume that 2 ℵ 0 = ℵ n, and moreover it is possible to assume that 2 ℵ 0 is as least as large ...

  7. Alpha recursion theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alpha_recursion_theory

    [6] A computational interpretation of α {\displaystyle \alpha } -recursion exists, using " α {\displaystyle \alpha } -Turing machines" with a two-symbol tape of length α {\displaystyle \alpha } , that at limit computation steps take the limit inferior of cell contents, state, and head position.

  9. Root system - Wikipedia

    E 6 = {α ∈ Z 6 ∪ (Z+1/2) 6 : Σα i 2 + 2α 1 2 = 2, Σα i + 2α 1 ∈ 2Z} Note that deleting α 1 and then α 2 gives sets of simple roots for E 7 and E 6 . However, these sets of simple roots are in different E 7 and E 6 subspaces of E 8 than the ones written above, since they are not orthogonal to α 1 or α 2 .
