91Type Ia supernova — A Type Ia supernova is a sub category of cataclysmic variable stars that results from the violent explosion of a white dwarf star. A white dwarf is the remnant of a star that has completed its normal life cycle and has ceased nuclear fusion.… …
92Self-creation cosmology — (SCC) theories are gravitational theories in which the mass of the universe is created out of its self contained gravitational and scalar fields, as opposed to the theory of continuous creation cosmology or the steady state theory which depend on …
93Nerve (category theory) — In category theory, the nerve N(C) of a small category C is a simplicial set constructed from the objects and morphisms of C. The geometric realization of this simplicial set is a topological space, called the classifying space of the category C …
94Weak gravitational lensing — While the presence of any mass bends the path of light passing near it, this effect rarely produces the giant arcs and multiple images associated with strong gravitational lensing. Most lines of sight in the universe are thoroughly in the weak… …
95Gravitational lensing formalism — In general relativity, a point mass deflects a light ray with impact parameter b by an angle hat{alpha} = frac{4GM}{c^2b}. A naïve application of Newtonian gravity can yield exactly half this value, where the light ray is assumed as a massed… …
96Formation and evolution of black holes — From the exotic nature of black holes, it is natural to question if such bizarre objects could actually exist in nature or that they are merely pathological solutions to Einstein s equations. However in 1970, Hawking and Penrose proved the… …
97cosmos — /koz meuhs, mohs/, n., pl. cosmos, cosmoses for 2, 4. 1. the world or universe regarded as an orderly, harmonious system. 2. a complete, orderly, harmonious system. 3. order; harmony. 4. any composite plant of the genus Cosmos, of tropical… …
98Degenerate orbital — See also: Degenerate energy level Degenerate orbitals for electrons in an atomic subshell are orbitals at identical energy levels. These are important in physical chemistry because they affect the ways electrons fill atoms (see Hund s rule). For… …
99Determinantal variety — In algebraic geometry, determinantal varieties are spaces of matrices with a given upper bound on their ranks. Their significance comes from the fact that many examples in algebraic geometry are of this form, such as the Segre embedding of a… …
100Möbius–Hückel concept — The Möbius Hückel treatment is one of two predicting reaction allowedness versus forbiddeness. The concept is the counterpart of the Woodward Hoffmann approach. The methodology in this treatment utilizes the plus minus sign parity in proceeding… …
