quantity
— Navneord
– Engelsk
~ how much there is or how many there are of something that you can quantify
quantization
— Navneord
– Engelsk
~ the act of dividing into quanta or expressing in terms of quantum theory
quantize
— Udsagnsord
– Engelsk
~ approximate (a signal varying continuously in amplitude) by one whose amplitude is restricted to a prescribed set of discrete values
quantize
— Udsagnsord
– Engelsk
~ apply quantum theory to; restrict the number of possible values of (a quantity) or states of (a physical entity or system) so that certain variables can assume only certain discrete magnitudes that are integral multiples of a common factor; "Quantize gravity"
quantized
— Tillægsord
– Engelsk
~ of or relating to a quantum or capable of existing in only one of two states
quantong
— Navneord
– Engelsk
~ red Australian fruit; used for dessert or in jam
quantum mechanics
— Navneord
– Engelsk
~ the branch of quantum physics that accounts for matter at the atomic level; an extension of statistical mechanics based on quantum theory (especially the Pauli exclusion principle)
quantum physics
— Navneord
– Engelsk
~ the branch of physics based on quantum theory
quantum jump
— Navneord
– Engelsk
~ a sudden large increase or advance; "this may not insure success but it will represent a quantum leap from last summer"
quantum
— Navneord
– Engelsk
~ (physics) the smallest discrete quantity of some physical property that a system can possess (according to quantum theory)
quantum chromodynamics
— Navneord
– Engelsk
~ a theory of strong interactions between elementary particles (including the interaction that binds protons and neutrons in the nucleus); it assumes that strongly interacting particles (hadrons) are made of quarks and that gluons bind the quarks together
quantum leap
— Navneord
– Engelsk
~ a sudden large increase or advance; "this may not insure success but it will represent a quantum leap from last summer"
quantum
— Navneord
– Engelsk
~ a discrete amount of something that is analogous to the quantities in quantum theory
quantum electrodynamics
— Navneord
– Engelsk
~ a relativistic quantum theory of the electromagnetic interactions of photons and electrons and muons
quantum jump
— Navneord
– Engelsk
~ (physics) an abrupt transition of an electron or atom or molecule from one quantum state to another with the emission or absorption of a quantum
Quaoar
— Navneord
– Engelsk
~ a planetoid discovered in 2002
quapaw
— Navneord
– Engelsk
~ a member of the Siouan people of the Arkansas river valley in Arkansas
Quapaw
— Navneord
– Engelsk
~ the Dhegiha dialect spoken by the Quapaw
