  2. Photometric system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Photometric_system

    Photometric system. In astronomy, a photometric system is a set of well-defined passbands (or optical filters ), with a known sensitivity to incident radiation. The sensitivity usually depends on the optical system, detectors and filters used. For each photometric system a set of primary standard stars is provided.

  3. Edge states - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Edge_states

    In some materials, for example, in graphene and zigzag graphene quantum dot, there exists the energy states having energy eigenvalues exactly equal to zero (E=0) besides the conduction and valence bands. These states are called edge states which modifies the electronic and optical properties of the materials significantly. [3] [4] [5] [6]

  4. Multispectral imaging - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multispectral_imaging

    In the case of Landsat satellites, several different band designations have been used, with as many as 11 bands comprising a multispectral image. [17] [18] [19] Spectral imaging with a higher radiometric resolution (involving hundreds or thousands of bands), finer spectral resolution (involving smaller bands), or wider spectral coverage may be ...

  5. Black hole information paradox - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_hole_information_paradox

    Black hole information paradox. The first image (silhouette or shadow) of a black hole, taken of the supermassive black hole in M87 with the Event Horizon Telescope, released in April 2019. The black hole information paradox [1] is a paradox that appears when the predictions of quantum mechanics and general relativity are combined.

  6. Electronic band structure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electronic_band_structure

    Energy band gaps can be classified using the wavevectors of the states surrounding the band gap: Direct band gap: the lowest-energy state above the band gap has the same k as the highest-energy state beneath the band gap. Indirect band gap: the closest states above and beneath the band gap do not have the same k value.

  7. The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Hitchhiker's_Guide_to...

    The different versions of the series spell the title differently — thus Hitch-Hiker's Guide, Hitch Hiker's Guide, and Hitchhiker's Guide are used in different editions (UK or US), formats (audio or print), and compilations of the book, with some omitting the apostrophe. Some editions use different spellings on the spine and title page.

  8. Surface states - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Surface_states

    The theory found that a one-dimensional finite crystal with two ends at and + always has one and only one state whose energy and properties depend on but not for each band gap. This state is either a band-edge state or a surface state in the band gap(see, Particle in a one-dimensional lattice, Particle in a box). Numerical calculations have ...

  9. Band offset - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Band_offset

    The band offsets, especially those at heterovalent heterojunctions depend significantly on the distribution of interface charge. The band offsets are determined by two kinds of factors for the interface, the band discontinuities and the built-in potential. These discontinuities are caused by the difference in band gaps of the semiconductors and ...
