Point process — In statistics and probability theory, a point process is a type of random process for which any one realisation consists of a set of isolated points either in time or geographical space, or in even more general spaces. For example, the occurrence … Wikipedia
Melting point — For the physical processes that takes place at the melting point, see Melting, Freezing and Crystallization The melting point of a solid is the temperature at which it changes state from solid to liquid. At the melting point the solid and liquid… … Wikipedia

Crystallographic defect — Crystalline solids exhibit a periodic crystal structure. The positions of atoms or molecules occur on repeating fixed distances, determined by the unit cell parameters. However, the arrangement of atom or molecules in most crystalline materials… … Wikipedia
Crystal oscillator — A miniature 4 MHz quartz crystal enclosed in a hermetically sealed HC 49/US package, used as the resonator in a crystal oscillator. A crystal oscillator is an electronic oscillator circuit that uses the mechanical resonance of a vibrating crystal … Wikipedia
Diffraction topography — (short: topography ) is an X ray imaging technique based on Bragg diffraction. Diffraction topographic images ( topographs ) record the intensity profile of a beam of X rays (or, sometimes, neutrons) diffracted by a crystal. A topograph thus… … Wikipedia
Automated Tissue Image Systems — (ATIS) are computer controlled automatic test equipment (ATE) systems classified as medical device and used as pathology laboratory tools (tissue based cancer diagnostics) to characterize a stained tissue sample embedded on a bar coded glass… … Wikipedia
Hardness — This article is about mechanical properties of materials. For other uses, see Hard. Hardness is the measure of how resistant solid matter is to various kinds of permanent shape change when a force is applied. Macroscopic hardness is generally… … Wikipedia
Collision cascade — A classical molecular dynamics computer simulation of a collision cascade in Au induced by a 10 keV Au self recoil. This is a typical case of a collision cascade in the heat spike regime. Each small sphere illustrates the position of an atom, in… … Wikipedia
