11Particle size (general) — Particle size is a notion introduced for comparing dimensions of solid particles ( flecks ), liquid particles ( droplets ), or gaseous particles ( bubbles ).The notion of particle size applies to *Colloidal particles; *Particles in ecology;… …
12Particle radiation — is the radiation of energy by means of fast moving subatomic particles. Particle radiation is referred to as a particle beam if the particles are all moving in the same direction, similar to a light beam.Due to the wave particle duality, all… …
13Small-angle neutron scattering — (SANS) is a laboratory technique, similar to the often complementary techniques of small angle X ray scattering (SAXS) and light scattering. These are particularly useful because of the dramatic increase in forward scattering that occurs at phase …
14Particle size (grain size) — Particle size, also called grain size, refers to the diameter of individual grains of sediment, or the lithified particles in clastic rocks. The term may also be applied to other granular materials. This is different from the crystallite size,… …
15particle — (n.) late 14c., small part or division of a whole, from L. particula little bit or part, dim. of pars (gen. partis); see PART (Cf. part) (n.). In construction, particle board (1957) is so called because it is made from chips and shavings of wood …
