The Zeeman effect ( / ˈzeɪmən /; Dutch pronunciation: [ˈzeːmɑn]) is the effect of splitting of a spectral line into several components in the presence of a static magnetic field. It is named after the Dutch physicist Pieter Zeeman, who discovered it in 1896 and received a Nobel prize for this discovery. It is analogous to the Stark effect ...
Yakir Aharonov. David Bohm. The Aharonov–Bohm effect, sometimes called the Ehrenberg–Siday–Aharonov–Bohm effect, is a quantum-mechanical phenomenon in which an electrically charged particle is affected by an electromagnetic potential ( , ), despite being confined to a region in which both the magnetic field and electric field are zero. [1]
The paradox of a charge in a gravitational field is an apparent physical paradox in the context of general relativity. A charged particle at rest in a gravitational field, such as on the surface of the Earth, must be supported by a force to prevent it from falling. According to the equivalence principle, it should be indistinguishable from a ...
The nickel–iron battery (NiFe battery) is a rechargeable battery having nickel (III) oxide-hydroxide positive plates and iron negative plates, with an electrolyte of potassium hydroxide. The active materials are held in nickel-plated steel tubes or perforated pockets. It is a very robust battery which is tolerant of abuse, (overcharge ...
Memory effect. Memory effect, also known as battery effect, lazy battery effect, or battery memory, is an effect observed in nickel-cadmium rechargeable batteries that causes them to hold less charge. [1] [2] It describes the situation in which nickel-cadmium batteries gradually lose their maximum energy capacity if they are repeatedly ...
I refuse to do it all; stop trying to make me!”. Wanting it all has driven women to the brink — struggling with mental and physical health issues because they “have been sold a false bill of ...
e. The triboelectric effect (also known as triboelectricity, triboelectric charging, triboelectrification, or tribocharging) describes electric charge transfer between two objects when they contact or slide against each other. It can occur with different materials, such as the sole of a shoe on a carpet, or between two pieces of the same material.
The Rashba–Edelstein effect ( REE) is a spintronics -related effect, consisting in the conversion of a bidimensional charge current into a spin accumulation. [1] [2] This effect is an intrinsic charge-to-spin conversion mechanism [1] and it was predicted in 1990 by the scientist V.M. Edelstein. [3] It has been demonstrated in 2013 [4] and ...
