Triangle
A triangle is a polygon with three corners and three sides, one of the basic shapes in geometry. The corners, also called ''vertices'', are zero-dimensional points while the sides connecting them, also called ''edges'', are one-dimensional line segments. A triangle has three internal angles, each one bounded by a pair of adjacent edges; the sum of angles of a triangle always equals a straight angle (180 degrees or π radians). The triangle is a plane figure and its interior is a planar region. Sometimes an arbitrary edge is chosen to be the ''base'', in which case the opposite vertex is called the ''apex''; the shortest segment between the base and apex is the ''height''. The area of a triangle equals one-half the product of height and base length. In Euclidean geometry, any two points determine a unique line segment situated within a unique straight line, and any three points that do not all lie on the same straight line determine a unique triangle situated w ...

Pythagorean Theorem
In mathematics, the Pythagorean theorem or Pythagoras' theorem is a fundamental relation in Euclidean geometry between the three sides of a right triangle. It states that the area of the square whose side is the hypotenuse (the side opposite the right angle) is equal to the sum of the areas of the squares on the other two sides. The theorem can be written as an equation relating the lengths of the sides , and the hypotenuse , sometimes called the Pythagorean equation: :a^2 + b^2 = c^2 . The theorem is named for the Ancient Greece, Greek philosopher Pythagoras, born around 570 BC. The theorem has been Mathematical proof, proved numerous times by many different methods – possibly the most for any mathematical theorem. The proofs are diverse, including both Geometry, geometric proofs and Algebra, algebraic proofs, with some dating back thousands of years. When Euclidean space is represented by a Cartesian coordinate system in analytic geometry, Euclidean distance satisfies th ...

Delta (letter)
Delta ( ; uppercase Δ, lowercase δ; , ''délta'', ) is the fourth letter of the Greek alphabet. In the system of Greek numerals, it has a value of four. It was derived from the Phoenician alphabet, Phoenician letter Dalet (letter), dalet 𐤃. Letters that come from delta include the Latin alphabet, Latin D and the Cyrillic script, Cyrillic De (Cyrillic), Д. A river delta (originally, the Nile Delta, delta of the Nile River) is named so because its shape approximates the triangular uppercase letter delta. Contrary to a popular legend, this use of the word ''delta'' was not coined by Herodotus. Pronunciation In Ancient Greek, delta represented a voiced dental plosive . In Modern Greek, it represents a voiced dental fricative , like the "''th''" in "''that''" or "''this''" (while in foreign words is instead commonly transcribed as ντ). Delta is romanization of Greek, romanized as ''d'' or ''dh''. Uppercase The uppercase letter Δ is used to denote: * Change of any changeable ...

Delta Baryon
The Delta baryons (or baryons, also called Delta resonances) are a family of subatomic particle made of three up or down quarks (u or d quarks), the same constituent quarks that make up the more familiar protons and neutrons. Properties Four closely related baryons exist: (constituent quarks: uuu), (uud), (udd), and (ddd), which respectively carry an electric charge of , , , and . The baryons have a mass of about ; their third component of isospin \; I_3 = \pm\tfrac ~\mathsf~ \pm\tfrac\;; and they are required to have an intrinsic spin of or higher (half-integer units). Ordinary nucleons (symbol N, meaning either a proton or neutron), by contrast, have a mass of about , and both intrinsic spin and isospin of . The (uud) and (udd) particles are higher-mass spin-excitations of the proton (, uud) and neutron (, udd), respectively. The and , however, have no direct nucleon analogues: For example, even though their charges ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Baryon
In particle physics, a baryon is a type of composite particle, composite subatomic particle that contains an odd number of valence quarks, conventionally three. proton, Protons and neutron, neutrons are examples of baryons; because baryons are composed of quarks, they belong to the hadron list of particles, family of particles. Baryons are also classified as fermions because they have half-integer Spin (physics), spin. The name "baryon", introduced by Abraham Pais, comes from the Ancient Greek, Greek word for "heavy" (βαρύς, ''barýs''), because, at the time of their naming, most known elementary particles had lower masses than the baryons. Each baryon has a corresponding antiparticle (antibaryon) where their corresponding antiquarks replace quarks. For example, a proton is made of two up quarks and one down quark; and its corresponding antiparticle, the antiproton, is made of two up antiquarks and one down antiquark. Baryons participate in the residual strong force, which ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Up Quark
The up quark or u quark (symbol: u) is the lightest of all quarks, a type of elementary particle, and a significant constituent of matter. It, along with the down quark, forms the neutrons (one up quark, two down quarks) and protons (two up quarks, one down quark) of atomic nucleus, atomic nuclei. It is part of the generation (physics), first generation of matter, has an electric charge of + elementary charge, ''e'' and a Quark#Mass, bare mass of . Like all quarks, the up quark is an elementary particle, elementary fermion with Spin (physics), spin spin-1/2, , and experiences all four fundamental interactions: gravitation, electromagnetism, weak interactions, and strong interactions. The antiparticle of the up quark is the up antiquark (sometimes called ''antiup quark'' or simply ''antiup''), which differs from it only in that some of its properties, such as electric charge, charge have additive inverse, equal magnitude but opposite sign. Its existence (along with that of the ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Down Quark
The down quark (symbol: d) is a type of elementary particle, and a major constituent of matter. The down quark is the second-lightest of all quarks, and combines with other quarks to form composite particles called hadrons. Down quarks are most commonly found in atomic nucleus, atomic nuclei, where it combines with up quarks to form protons and neutrons. The proton is made of one down quark with two up quarks, and the neutron is made up of two down quarks with one up quark. Because they are found in every single known atom, down quarks are present in all everyday matter that we interact with. The down quark is part of the generation (physics), first generation of matter, has an electric charge of − elementary charge, ''e'' and a Quark#Mass, bare mass of . Like all quarks, the down quark is an elementary fermion with Spin (physics), spin spin-1/2, , and experiences all four fundamental interactions: gravitation, electromagnetism, weak interactions, and strong interactions. ...

Laplace Operator
In mathematics, the Laplace operator or Laplacian is a differential operator given by the divergence of the gradient of a Scalar field, scalar function on Euclidean space. It is usually denoted by the symbols \nabla\cdot\nabla, \nabla^2 (where \nabla is the Del, nabla operator), or \Delta. In a Cartesian coordinate system, the Laplacian is given by the sum of second partial derivatives of the function with respect to each independent variable. In other coordinate systems, such as cylindrical coordinates, cylindrical and spherical coordinates, the Laplacian also has a useful form. Informally, the Laplacian of a function at a point measures by how much the average value of over small spheres or balls centered at deviates from . The Laplace operator is named after the French mathematician Pierre-Simon de Laplace (1749–1827), who first applied the operator to the study of celestial mechanics: the Laplacian of the gravitational potential due to a given mass density distributio ...

Symmetric Difference
In mathematics, the symmetric difference of two sets, also known as the disjunctive union and set sum, is the set of elements which are in either of the sets, but not in their intersection. For example, the symmetric difference of the sets \ and \ is \. The symmetric difference of the sets ''A'' and ''B'' is commonly denoted by A \operatorname\Delta B (alternatively, A \operatorname\vartriangle B), A \oplus B, or A \ominus B. It can be viewed as a form of addition modulo 2. The power set of any set becomes an abelian group under the operation of symmetric difference, with the empty set as the neutral element of the group and every element in this group being its own inverse. The power set of any set becomes a Boolean ring, with symmetric difference as the addition of the ring and intersection as the multiplication of the ring. Properties The symmetric difference is equivalent to the union of both relative complements, that is: :A\, \Delta\,B = \left(A \setminus B\ri ...
