  2. Orders of magnitude (time) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orders_of_magnitude_(time)

    Orders of magnitude (time) An order of magnitude of time is usually a decimal prefix or decimal order-of-magnitude quantity together with a base unit of time, like a microsecond or a million years. In some cases, the order of magnitude may be implied (usually 1), like a "second" or "year". In other cases, the quantity name implies the base unit ...

  3. ISO 8601 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_8601

    t. e. ISO 8601 is an international standard covering the worldwide exchange and communication of date and time -related data. It is maintained by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) and was first published in 1988, with updates in 1991, 2000, 2004, and 2019, and an amendment in 2022. [1]

  4. Mass spectrum - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mass_spectrum

    A mass spectrum is a histogram plot of intensity vs. mass-to-charge ratio ( m/z) in a chemical sample, [1] usually acquired using an instrument called a mass spectrometer. Not all mass spectra of a given substance are the same; for example, some mass spectrometers break the analyte molecules into fragments; others observe the intact molecular ...

  5. List of tz database time zones - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_tz_database_time_zones

    Time Zone abbreviations. Time zone abbreviations for both Standard Time and Daylight Saving Time are shown exactly as they appear in the database. See strftime and its "%Z" field. Some of zone records use 3 or 4 letter abbreviations that are tied to physical time zones, others use numeric UTC offsets. List

  6. Temporal database - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Temporal_database

    The valid time and transaction time do not have to be the same for a single fact. For example, consider a temporal database storing data about the 18th century. The valid time of these facts is somewhere between 1701 and 1800. The transaction time would show when the facts were inserted into the database (for example 1998-01-21). Schema evolution

  7. Railway signals in Germany - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Railway_signals_in_Germany

    (Note: the systems Sk and Sv are not covered by this article yet.) Most instances of the additional signal types (like Zs, Ne) can be combined with all the signal systems, e.g.: Zs 3(v) (speed limitation) appears with H/V and Ks, but Hl uses its own speed display; Zs 1 and Zs 8 appear with all of them, but in different shape.

  8. Redshift - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Redshift

    t. e. In physics, a redshift is an increase in the wavelength, and corresponding decrease in the frequency and photon energy, of electromagnetic radiation (such as light ). The opposite change, a decrease in wavelength and increase in frequency and energy, is known as a blueshift, or negative redshift. The terms derive from the colours red and ...

  9. Control loop - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Control_loop

    A good example of this is a central heating boiler controlled only by a timer, so that heat is applied for a constant time, regardless of the temperature of the building. The control action is the switching on/off of the boiler, but the controlled variable should be the building temperature, but is not because this is open-loop control of the ...
