Nuclear physics The decay energy is the energy released by a radioactive decay . Radioactive decay is the process in which an unstable atomic nucleus loses energy by emitting ionizing particles and radiation . This decay, or loss of energy, results in an atom of one type, called the parent nuclide transforming to an atom of a different type, called the daughter nuclide. Decay calculation The energy difference of the reactant s is often written as Q math Q text Kinetic energy text after text Kinetic energy text before , math math Q text Rest mass text before times c 2 text Rest mass text after times c 2 , math Decay energy is usually quoted in terms of the energy units MeV million electronvolt s or KeV thousand electronvolts . Types of radioactive decay include gamma ray beta decaydecay energy is divided between the emitted electron and the neutrino which is emitted at the same time alphadecay The decay energy is the mass difference dm between the parent and the daughter atom and particles.

Distance decay is a Human geography geographical term which describes the effect of distance on cultural or spatial interactions. The distance decay effect states that the interaction between two locales declines as the distance between them increases. Once the distance is outside of the two locales activity space, their interactions begin to decrease. With the advent of faster travel, distance has less effect than it did in the past, except where places previously well connected by railroads, for example, have fallen off the beaten path. Advances in communications technology, such as phones, radio and television broadcasts, and internet, have further decreased the effects of distance. Related terms include friction of distance , which describes the force that creates distance decay and Waldo R. Tobler s First law of geography , an informal statement that All things are related, but near things are more related than far things. Distance decay is graphically represented by a curving line that swoops concavely downward as distance along the x axis increases. Distance decay can be mathematically represented by the expression I 1 d , where I is interaction and d is distance, among other forms. It also weighs into the decision to migrate, leading many migrants to move less far than they originally contemplated. Distance decay is also evident in town city centres. It can refer to br the number of pedestrians getting further from the centre of the Central Business District CBD , br the street quality decreasing as distance from the centre increases as well, br the quality of shops decreasing as distance from the centre also increases br the height of buildings decreasing as distance from the centre increases br the price of land decreasing as distance from the centre increases br See also Loss of Strength Gradient The Death of Distance References Working Group on Distance Decay , Kristin Taverna, Weimin Xi, http www.bio.unc.edu faculty peet lab ecoinfo distance decay distance ... more details

The Decay Of Lying An Observation is an essay by Oscar Wilde included in his collection of essays titled Intentions , published in 1891. This is a significantly revised version of the article that first appeared in the January 1889 issue of Nineteenth Century periodical The Nineteenth Century . Wilde presents the essay in a Socratic dialogue , with the characters of Vivian and Cyril having a conversation throughout. Vivian tells Cyril of an article he has been writing called The Decay Of Lying A Protest . In the article Vivian defends Aestheticism and Art for Art s sake . As summarized by Vivian, it contains four doctrines Art never expresses anything but itself All bad art comes from returning to Life and Nature, and elevating them into ideals Life imitates Art far more than Art imitates Life Lying, the telling of beautiful untrue things, is the proper aim of Art The essay ends with the two characters going outside, as Cyril asked Vivian to do at the beginning of the essay. Vivian finally complies, saying that twilight nature s chief use may be to illustrate quotations from the poets. References Portal Oscar Wilde Wilde, Oscar.

Orphan date January 2011 No footnotes date January 2012 Elegant Decay is the distinct cultural historical concept that some places, and structures, become gradually more elegant, notable or beautiful as they decay, or fall into ruin, due to their historical, architectural and or cultural significance. Although such reverence can often be merely in the opinion of individuals, it is true that certain cities, regions or even countries are more susceptible to the general concept due to past opulence, or their lengthy or enduring history or culture. File Rome Palatine Hill.jpg thumb 360px A bend in the path to the summit of Palatine Hill, in Rome, Italy Contrary to the general interpretation that places or structures are more noteworthy in their newness, or older structures hold more value and interest in being historically restored to their original state, the concept of elegant decay is that in the slow degradation of the structures an inherent elegance, or beauty, emerges due to past historic importance. In more recent times, this concept has gradually become more important for regions to cultivate a more vibrant tourist industry.

The two works on the album, 1 100 composed 1 December 1975 and Bell Set No. 1 1974 are both built around the musical concept of ADSR envelope decay . Both of these experiment with percussive, long decay musical forms. 1 100 is played at half the speed it was recorded. It was written for Peter Greenaway s film of the same title, but rejected because it was too long. It was inspired by Frederic Rzewski s Les Moutons de Panurge , which Nyman often played with the Scratch Orchestra . The album was first issued on compact disc on March 29, 2004, by EMI Virgin Records Virgin . The original full speed recording of 1 100 is included as a bonus track.
