81Cyldon — logo Cyldon was the brand name for a range of model stationary steam engines, manufactured in Enfield, Middlesex, England between 1947 and 1951 by Sydney S Bird Sons. The range extended to five different models, numbered: 13/1 which was a single… …
82Doubochinski's pendulum — Fig.1. Schematics of the Doubochinski’s pendulum Doubochinski’s pendulum is a classical oscillator interacting with a high frequency field in such a way that the oscillator takes on a discrete set of stable regimes of oscillation, each at a… …
83Oscillation theory — In mathematics, in the field of ordinary differential equations, a non trivial solution to an ordinary differential equation is called oscillating if it has an infinite number of roots, otherwise it is called non oscillating. The differential… …
84Dipole — This article is about the electromagnetic phenomenon. For other uses, see dipole (disambiguation). The Earth s magnetic field, approximated as a magnetic dipole. However, the N and S (north and south) poles are labeled here geographically, which… …
85Resonance — This article is about resonance in physics. For other uses, see Resonance (disambiguation). Resonant redirects here. For the phonological term, see Sonorant. Increase of amplitude as damping decreases and frequency approaches resonant frequency… …
86Magnetic levitation — This article is about magnetic levitation. For trains based on this effect, see Maglev. For the Ruby interpreter, see MagLev (Ruby interpreter). Levitating pyrolytic carbon Magnetic levitation, maglev, or magnetic suspension is a method by which… …
87Q factor — For other uses of the terms Q and Q factor see Q value. In physics and engineering the quality factor or Q factor is a dimensionless parameter that compares the time constant for decay of an oscillating physical system s amplitude to its… …
88Coherent state — In quantum mechanics a coherent state is a specific kind of quantum state of the quantum harmonic oscillator whose dynamics most closely resemble the oscillating behaviour of a classical harmonic oscillator system. It was the first example of… …
89Ignition system — For other uses, see Ignition system (disambiguation). An ignition system is a system for igniting a fuel air mixture. Ignition systems are well known in the field of internal combustion engines such as those used in petrol (gasoline) engines used …
90Inertial electrostatic confinement — (often abbreviated as IEC) is a concept for retaining a plasma using an electrostatic field. The field accelerates charged particles (either ions or electrons) radially inward, usually in a spherical but sometimes in a cylindrical geometry. Ions… …
