  1. Acquired characteristic

    Orphan date June 2009 An acquired characteristic is a hereditary non hereditary change in function or structure in living biotic material caused by disease, mutilation, repeated use or disuse, or other environmental influence. For example, a person constantly exercising may develop stronger muscles or a cat that goes into a fight with another feline, thus getting injured, may lose an eye or an ear. None of these acquired traits will be passed on to offspring through reproduction alone. The inheritance of acquired characters was historically proposed by renowned theorists such as Hippocrates , Aristotle , and French naturalist Jean Baptiste Lamarck . On the other hand, it was also disputed by other famous theorists such as Charles Darwin . Today, although Lamarckism is generally discredited, there is still debate on whether some acquired characteristics in organisms are actually inheritable. ref Cite journal pmc 1320859 title The Inheritance of Acquired Characteristics journal Am J Public Health N Y year 1925 month June volume 15 issue 6 pages 549 ref ref Cite pmid 7029546 ref Types Physical Physical acquired characteristics can stem from various environmental influences such as diseases, mutilation, and use or atrophy of body parts. Disease Disorders such as hypothyroidism and gout are known to cause permanent or near permanent changes to the human body. Hypothyroidism is known to cause goiters, depression, and sluggishness. ref http www.nlm.nih.gov medlineplus ency article 000353.htm ref Gout, on the other hand, can cause tophi . When these diseases are caused by environmental influences such as iodine deficiency or lead poisoning, their resultant symptoms are said to be acquired characteristics.

  1. Fully characteristic subgroup

    In mathematics , a subgroup of a group mathematics group is fully characteristic or fully invariant if it is Invariant mathematics invariant under every endomorphism of the group. That is, any endomorphism of the group takes elements of the subgroup to elements of the subgroup. Every group has itself the improper subgroup and the trivial subgroup as two of its fully characteristic subgroups. Every fully characteristic subgroup is a strictly characteristic subgroup , and a fortiori a characteristic subgroup . The commutator subgroup of a group is always a fully characteristic subgroup. More generally, any verbal subgroup is always fully characteristic. For any reduced free group , and, in particular, for any free group , the converse also holds &mdash every fully characteristic subgroup is verbal. See also characteristic subgroup .

  1. Ring of mixed characteristic

    In commutative algebra , a ring of mixed characteristic is a commutative ring R having characteristic algebra characteristic zero and having an ideal I such that nowrap R I has positive characteristic. Examples The integers Z have characteristic zero, but for any prime number p , Z p is a finite field with p elements and hence has characteristic p . Fix a prime p and localization of a ring localize the integers at the prime ideal p . The resulting ring Z sub p sub has characteristic zero. It has a unique maximal ideal p Z sub p sub , and the quotient Z sub p sub p Z sub p sub is a finite field with p elements. In contrast to the previous example, the only possible characteristics for rings of the form nowrap Z sub p sub I are zero when I is the zero ideal and powers of p when I is any other non unit ideal it is not possible to have a quotient of any other characteristic. The p adic number p adic integers Z sub p sub for any prime p are a ring of characteristic zero. However, they have an ideal generated by the image of the prime number p under the canonical map nowrap Z &rarr Z sub p sub . The quotient Z sub p sub p Z sub p sub is again the finite field of p elements. Z sub p sub is an example of a completion ring theory complete discrete valuation ring of mixed characteristic.

  1. Characteristic x-ray

    Cleanup date August 2008 Lead rewrite date September 2009 A high energy electron interacts with a bound electron in an atom and ejects it. The incident electron is scattered and the target electron gets displaced from its shell. The incident electron energy must exceed the binding energy of the electron to eject it. After the electron has been ejected the atom is left with a vacant energy level . This vacant energy level if it occurs in the inner electron levels is called a core hole. This vacancy is subsequently filled by an electron from a higher energy level with the emission of a characteristic x ray photon. The characteristic x ray photon has an energy that corresponds exactly to the difference in energy between the energy level that is vacant and the energy level from which an electron falls. The x ray energy is characteristic of the atom that had the core hole and can be used to identify the atom. This is used in various techniques, including X ray fluorescence spectroscopy , Energy dispersive X ray spectroscopy and Wavelength dispersive X ray spectroscopy . These are used in mineral analysis and elsewhere. The characteristic x ray can be immediately reabsorbed by an electron in the same atom and instead the energy of the characteristic x ray is given entirely to this electron which is called an Auger electron . This is like an internal photo electric effect that occurs after the initial photo electric effect.

  1. Characteristic mode analysis

    Unreferenced auto yes date December 2009 Orphan date September 2006 att March 2011 Characteristic Mode Analysis is a method used in electromagnetics to solve for Electric current currents and electric field fields generated by a scattering object. The object can be any size or material. When an electromagnetic wave is scattered by an object, currents are induced on said object, which subsequently reradiate electromagnetic energy. The structure of the currents and fields are unique to the physical dimensions of the scatterer and incident frequency of radiation. From this perspective, a scatterer can be viewed as a parasitic antenna radio antenna that radiates electromagnetic radiation in the same way as original incident wave was radiated.

For the analysis of Phase detector it is usually considered the models of PD in signal space and phase space. ref A. J. Viterbi, Principles of Coherent Communication, McGraw Hill, New York, 1966 ref In this case for constructing of an adequate nonlinear mathematical model of PD in phase space it is necessary to find the characteristic of phase detector. The inputs of PD are high frequency signals and the output contains a low frequency error correction signal, corresponding to a phase difference of input signals. For the suppression of high frequency component of the output of PD if such component exists the low pass filters are applied. The characteristic of PD is the dependence of the signal at the output of PD in the phase space on the phase difference of signals at the input of PD.

  1. Mission characteristic velocity

    orphan date August 2010 The mission characteristic velocity also mission velocity or characteristic velocity is an important parameter describing space mission s. It is the total delta v needed for all maneuvers of the mission, typically given in km s. To achieve low earth orbit it is approximately 8  km s, while to escape from Earth needs 11.2  km s, both ideal minimus figures for neglecting various inefficiencies that typically range from 10 to 20 . For the Apollo program Apollo lunar landings with return to Earth it was of the order of 20  km s. Because the mass ratio required for a given mission is exponential in the mission velocity divided by the effective exhaust velocity of the rocket propulsion system, high mission velocities rapidly become extremely expensive for chemical rockets, so that the mission velocity, along with the payload, is a key parameter in assessing the overall difficulty of a given mission. Missions that would at first appear to be infeasible due to high mission velocity can sometimes be done by means of various tricks, such as gravity assist encounters with planets along the way, aerobraking , staging to intermediate bases, etc. Some of these have been described in the large literature of astronautics , e.g. Arthur C Clarke s Interplanetary Flight , and many others.
