Radian
The radian, denoted by the symbol rad, is the unit of angle in the International System of Units (SI) and is the standard unit of angular measure used in many areas of mathematics. The unit was formerly an SI supplementary unit (before that category was abolished in 1995). The radian is defined in the SI as being a dimensionless unit, with 1 rad = 1. Its symbol is accordingly often omitted, especially in mathematical writing. Definition One radian is defined as the angle subtended from the center of a circle which intercepts an arc equal in length to the radius of the circle. More generally, the magnitude in radians of a subtended angle is equal to the ratio of the arc length to the radius of the circle; that is, \theta = \frac, where is the subtended angle in radians, is arc length, and is radius. A right angle is exactly \frac radians. The rotation angle (360°) corresponding to one complete revolution is the length of the circumference divided by the radius, which i ...

Radian (band)
Radian is an Austrian experimental music group. Their music touches on instrumental rock, post-rock, jazz and electronica, and is notable for imitating some of the more demanding musical structures of intelligent dance music. The trio was formed in 1996, in Vienna. Members * 1996-2011 Martin Brandlmayr: drums, vibraphone, editing and arrangement Stefan Nemeth: synthesizer, guitars John Norman: bass * 2011- Martin Brandlmayr: drums, vibraphone, electronics, editing and arrangement Martin Siewert: guitar, electronics John Norman: bass Discography *''Radian'' EP (1998) - Rhiz *''tg11'' (2000) - Mego / Rhiz *''rec.extern'' (2002) - Thrill Jockey (recorded by John McEntire) *''Juxtaposition'' (2004) - Thrill Jockey *''Chimeric'' (2009) - Thrill Jockey *''Radian Verses Howe Gelb'' (2014) - Radian Releases (collaboration with Howe Gelb) *''On Dark Silent Off'' (2016) - Thrill Jockey Thrill Jockey is an American independent record label established by former Atlantic Rec ...

Yamaha YX600 Radian
The YX600 Radian is a sport/touring motorcycle manufactured by the Yamaha Motor Company between the years of 1986–1990. Except for the suspension, the rest of the Radian was a parts-bin motorcycle and came equipped with a slightly detuned for mid and low-end torque version of air-cooled, inline-4 which came from the Yamaha XJ600 that was also along with the Radian used in the Yamaha FZ-600 Sport Motorcycle (precursor of Yamaha's FZR series of performance bikes), as well as smaller carburetors and frame from the 550 Maxim. Cycle World obtained for the Radian a 1/4 mi. time of 12.76 @ and acceleration at 3.8 seconds.

Steradian
The steradian (symbol: sr) or square radian is the unit of solid angle in the International System of Units (SI). It is used in three-dimensional geometry, and is analogous to the radian, which quantifies planar angles. Whereas an angle in radians, projected onto a circle, gives a ''length'' on the circumference, a solid angle in steradians, projected onto a sphere, gives an ''area'' on the surface. The name is derived from the Greek 'solid' + radian. The steradian, like the radian, is a dimensionless unit, the quotient of the area subtended and the square of its distance from the centre. Both the numerator and denominator of this ratio have dimension length squared (i.e. , dimensionless). It is useful, however, to distinguish between dimensionless quantities of a different nature, so the symbol "sr" is used to indicate a solid angle. For example, radiant intensity can be measured in watts per steradian (W⋅sr−1). The steradian was formerly an SI supplementary unit, but this ...
