pp semi indef The mass vector is a vector quantity that describes the magnitude and direction in which the mass acts for any point mass in the known universe in its movement about the universe s central axis of rotation. The discovery of the mass vector is commonly attributed to Isaac Newton Sir Isaac Newton and is documented in a recently recovered chapter of his treatise De motu corporum in gyrum . ref De motu corporum in gyrum ref The mass vector is defined as the resultant vector of the division of the force vector by the acceleration vector or the derivative with respect to position of the dot product of momentum and time, which is referred to as the Hang and abbreviated . Very little is yet understood about the properties of mass vectors because they are hypothesized to exist only within the singularity of black holes where the extreme gravitational force compresses acceleration to a scalar quantity. There is some controversy regarding the definition of the mass vector, as seen in James Clerk Maxwell s treatise James Clerk Maxwell Later years Matter and Motion . Maxwell defines the mass vector as follows ... a mass vector is ... the operation of carrying a given mass from the origin to the given point. The direction of the mass vector is the same as that of the vector of the mass, but its magnitude is the product of the mass into the vector of the mass.

Unreferenced stub auto yes date December 2009 The Mass or Liturgy of the Catechumens is an ancient title for the first half of the Roman Catholic or Eastern Orthodox worship service known as the Mass liturgy Mass or Divine Liturgy . This part of the Mass is now referred to by the Catholic Church as the Mass liturgy Liturgy of the Word Liturgy of the Word . It was originally called the Mass of the Catechumens, because the Catechumens , or candidates for Baptism , were required to leave the ceremony before the beginning of the Mass liturgy Liturgy of the Eucharist Liturgy of the Eucharist , or Mass, proper. This exclusion was enforced on the grounds that until Baptism, persons were not fully members of the Church and should not participate in the communal sacrifice that symbolizes and embodies the spiritual union of the Faithful, according to Catholic belief. In the earliest liturgy there was a service consisting of readings, a homily explanation of the readings and how to apply them to one s life and petitionary prayers based on the readings and homily bidding prayers or prayers of the faithful .

A mass formula is an equation or set of equations in physics which attempts to predict the mass or mass ratios of the subatomic particles .

The mass excess of a nuclide is the difference between its actual mass and its mass number in atomic mass units . ref http www.branta.connectfree.co.uk square.htm Square Bot generated title ref It is one of the predominant methods for tabulating nuclear mass. The mass of an atomic nucleus is well approximated by its mass number, which indicates that most of the mass of a nucleus arises from mass of its constituent proton s and neutron s. Thus, the mass excess is an expression of the nuclear binding energy , relative to the binding energy per nucleon of Carbon 12 which defines the atomic mass unit . If the mass excess is negative, the nucleus has more binding energy than sup 12 sup C, and vice versa. If a nucleus has a large excess of mass compared to a nearby nuclear species, it can radioactive ... C standard makes it useful to think about nuclear mass in atomic mass units for the definition of the mass .... From Albert Einstein Einstein s work on mass energy equivalence E mc sup 2 sup , it is well known that nuclear reaction s transform energy into mass and vice versa. However, most of the energy remains in the mass of the nuclei involved, and only a small fraction of the total energy, on the order of 0.01 to 0.1 of the total mass, may be absorbed or liberated.

Other uses Weight distribution Mass distribution is a term used in physics and mechanics and describes the spatial distribution of mass within a solid body. In principle, it is relevant also for gas es or liquid s, but on earth their mass distribution is almost homogeneous. Astronomy In astronomy mass distribution has decisive influence on the development e.g. of nebula e, star s and planet s. The mass distribution of a solid defines its center of gravity and influences its dynamical behaviour e.g. the oscillation s and eventual rotation . Mathematical modelling A mass distribution can be modeled as a Measure mathematics measure . This allows point masses, line masses, surface masses, as well as masses given by a volume density function. Alternatively the latter can be generalized to a distribution mathematics distribution . For example, a point mass is represented by a Dirac delta Generalizations delta function defined in 3 dimensional space . A surface mass on a surface given by the equation f x,y,z 0 may be represented by a density distribution g x,y,z f x,y,z , where math g mid nabla f mid math is the mass per unit area. The mathematical model ling can be done by potential theory , by numerical methods e.g. a great number of point massmass point s , or by theoretical mechanical equilibrium equilibrium figures.
