  2. X and Y bosons - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/X_and_Y_bosons

    An X boson would have the following two decay modes:: 442 X + → u L + u R X + → e + L + d R. where the two decay products in each process have opposite chirality, u is an up quark, d is a down antiquark, and e + is a positron. A Y boson would have the following three decay modes:: 442 Y + → e + L + u R Y

  3. Canonical commutation relation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Canonical_commutation_relation

    where q is the particle's electric charge, A is the vector potential, and c is the speed of light. Although the quantity p kin is the "physical momentum", in that it is the quantity to be identified with momentum in laboratory experiments, it does not satisfy the canonical commutation relations; only the canonical momentum does that.

  4. Earnshaw's theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Earnshaw's_theorem

    Scientists. v. t. e. Earnshaw's theorem states that a collection of point charges cannot be maintained in a stable stationary equilibrium configuration solely by the electrostatic interaction of the charges. This was first proven by British mathematician Samuel Earnshaw in 1842. It is usually cited in reference to magnetic fields, but was first ...

  5. Ten-code - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ten-code

    Ten-codes, especially "10-4" (meaning "understood") first reached public recognition in the mid- to late-1950s through the popular television series Highway Patrol, with Broderick Crawford. [ citation needed ] Crawford would reach into his patrol car to use the microphone to answer a call and precede his response with "10-4".

  6. atan2 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atan2

    atan2. atan2 (y, x) returns the angle θ between the positive x -axis and the ray from the origin to the point (x, y), confined to (−π, π]. Graph of over. In computing and mathematics, the function atan2 is the 2- argument arctangent. By definition, is the angle measure (in radians, with ) between the positive -axis and the ray from the ...

  7. Negative number - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Negative_number

    The minus sign "−" signifies the operator for both the binary (two-operand) operation of subtraction (as in y − z) and the unary (one-operand) operation of negation (as in −x, or twice in −(−x)). A special case of unary negation occurs when it operates on a positive number, in which case the result is a negative number (as in −5).

  8. Mass-to-charge ratio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mass-to-charge_ratio

    The mass-to-charge ratio ( m / Q) is a physical quantity relating the mass (quantity of matter) and the electric charge of a given particle, expressed in units of kilograms per coulomb (kg/C). It is most widely used in the electrodynamics of charged particles, e.g. in electron optics and ion optics .

  9. Multiplicative inverse - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiplicative_inverse

    The graph forms a rectangular hyperbola. In mathematics, a multiplicative inverse or reciprocal for a number x, denoted by 1/ x or x−1, is a number which when multiplied by x yields the multiplicative identity, 1. The multiplicative inverse of a fraction a / b is b / a. For the multiplicative inverse of a real number, divide 1 by the number.
