  2. Mode (statistics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mode_(statistics)

    The mode of a sample is the element that occurs most often in the collection. For example, the mode of the sample [1, 3, 6, 6, 6, 6, 7, 7, 12, 12, 17] is 6. Given the list of data [1, 1, 2, 4, 4] its mode is not unique. A dataset, in such a case, is said to be bimodal, while a set with more than two modes may be described as multimodal.

  3. Transverse mode - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transverse_mode

    The number of modes in an optical fiber distinguishes multi-mode optical fiber from single-mode optical fiber. To determine the number of modes in a step-index fiber, the V number needs to be determined: = where is the wavenumber, is the fiber's core radius, and and are the refractive indices of the core and cladding, respectively. Fiber with a ...

  4. Mode (music) - Wikipedia

    A musical scale is a series of pitches in a distinct order. The concept of "mode" in Western music theory has three successive stages: in Gregorian chant theory, in Renaissance polyphonic theory, and in tonal harmonic music of the common practice period. In all three contexts, "mode" incorporates the idea of the diatonic scale, but differs from ...

    is the number operator. When acting on a quantum mechanical photon number state, it returns the number of photons in mode (k, μ). This also holds when the number of photons in this mode is zero, then the number operator returns zero. To show the action of the number operator on a one-photon ket, we consider

    Under a potential new model, a school could, if it chooses, distribute full scholarships across all 32 spots. However, the new roster limit for baseball and other sports has not been defined.

  7. Normal mode - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Normal_mode

    Mode numbers. A mode of vibration is characterized by a modal frequency and a mode shape. It is numbered according to the number of half waves in the vibration. For example, if a vibrating beam with both ends pinned displayed a mode shape of half of a sine wave (one peak on the vibrating beam) it would be vibrating in mode 1.

    Rhythmic mode. Pérotin, "Alleluia nativitas", in the third rhythmic mode. In medieval music, the rhythmic modes were set patterns of long and short durations (or rhythms ). The value of each note is not determined by the form of the written note (as is the case with more recent European musical notation), but rather by its position within a ...
