  2. Renormalization group - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Renormalization_group

    Regularization. v. t. e. In theoretical physics, the term renormalization group ( RG) refers to a formal apparatus that allows systematic investigation of the changes of a physical system as viewed at different scales. In particle physics, it reflects the changes in the underlying force laws (codified in a quantum field theory) as the energy ...

  3. Effective field theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Effective_field_theory

    Effective field theories typically work best when there is a large separation between length scale of interest and the length scale of the underlying dynamics. Effective field theories have found use in particle physics, statistical mechanics, condensed matter physics, general relativity, and hydrodynamics.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Röhm_Gesellschaft

    After 1968, RG Industries was established as a US division in Miami and operated until 1986. In 2010, the RG brand was acquired by Umarex GmbH & Co. KG. Röhm's RG-14 handgun, used in an assassination attempt on then US President Ronald Reagan , was referred to in 1981 as a Saturday night special , a cheaply manufactured firearm of perceived ...

  5. Mechanics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mechanics

    Mechanics (from Ancient Greek: μηχανική, mēkhanikḗ, lit. "of machines ") [1] [2] is the area of physics concerned with the relationships between force, matter, and motion among physical objects. [3] Forces applied to objects result in displacements, which are changes of an object's position relative to its environment.

  6. Auto mechanic - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Auto_mechanic

    An auto mechanic [1] is a mechanic who services and repairs automobiles, sometimes specializing in one or more automobile brands or sometimes working with any brand. In fixing cars, their main role is to diagnose and repair the problem accurately and quickly. Seasoned auto repair shops start with a (Digital) Inspection to determine the vehicle ...

  7. Matrix mechanics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Matrix_mechanics

    Quantum mechanics. Matrix mechanics is a formulation of quantum mechanics created by Werner Heisenberg, Max Born, and Pascual Jordan in 1925. It was the first conceptually autonomous and logically consistent formulation of quantum mechanics. Its account of quantum jumps supplanted the Bohr model 's electron orbits.

  8. Mechanical engineering - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mechanical_engineering

    It is an engineering branch that combines engineering physics and mathematics principles with materials science, to design, analyze, manufacture, and maintain mechanical systems. [1] It is one of the oldest and broadest of the engineering branches . Mechanical engineering requires an understanding of core areas including mechanics, dynamics ...

  9. Schrödinger equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schrödinger_equation

    Linearity. The Schrödinger equation is a linear differential equation, meaning that if two state vectors and are solutions, then so is any linear combination. of the two state vectors where a and b are any complex numbers. [13] : 25 Moreover, the sum can be extended for any number of state vectors.
