RadonLe radon est l'élément chimique de numéro atomique 86, de symbole Rn. C'est un gaz noble (ou gaz rare) radioactif, incolore, inodore et d'origine le plus souvent naturelle. C'est l'une des substances les plus denses capables de persister sous forme de gaz dans les conditions normales de température et de pression. Le radon n'existe pas sous forme de corps stable et tous ses isotopes connus sont radioactifs. Son isotope le plus stable est le Rn, qui a une demi-vie de et qui a été utilisé en radiothérapie jusque dans les années 1950.
Real projective spaceIn mathematics, real projective space, denoted \mathbb{RP}^n or \mathbb{P}_n(\R), is the topological space of lines passing through the origin 0 in the real space \R^{n+1}. It is a compact, smooth manifold of dimension n, and is a special case \mathbf{Gr}(1, \R^{n+1}) of a Grassmannian space. As with all projective spaces, RPn is formed by taking the quotient of Rn+1 ∖ under the equivalence relation x ∼ λx for all real numbers λ ≠ 0. For all x in Rn+1 ∖ one can always find a λ such that λx has norm 1.
Quaternionic projective spaceIn mathematics, quaternionic projective space is an extension of the ideas of real projective space and complex projective space, to the case where coordinates lie in the ring of quaternions Quaternionic projective space of dimension n is usually denoted by and is a closed manifold of (real) dimension 4n. It is a homogeneous space for a Lie group action, in more than one way. The quaternionic projective line is homeomorphic to the 4-sphere. Its direct construction is as a special case of the projective space over a division algebra.

Dans beaucoup de cas, les scalaires considérés sont des nombres réels, mais il est possible d'utiliser des nombres complexes ou des éléments d'un corps commutatif quelconque.
Health effects of radonRadon, a radioactive, colorless, odorless, tasteless noble gas, has been studied by a number of scientific and medical bodies for its effects on health. A naturally-occurring gas formed as a decay product of radium, radon is one of the densest substances that remains a gas under normal conditions, and is considered to be a health hazard due to its radioactivity. Its most stable isotope, radon-222 (222Rn), has a half-life of 3.8 days. Due to its high radioactivity, it has been less well studied by chemists, but a few compounds are known.
Complex projective spaceIn mathematics, complex projective space is the projective space with respect to the field of complex numbers. By analogy, whereas the points of a real projective space label the lines through the origin of a real Euclidean space, the points of a complex projective space label the complex lines through the origin of a complex Euclidean space (see below for an intuitive account). Formally, a complex projective space is the space of complex lines through the origin of an (n+1)-dimensional complex vector space.
Real coordinate spaceIn mathematics, the real coordinate space of dimension n, denoted Rn or , is the set of the n-tuples of real numbers, that is the set of all sequences of n real numbers. Special cases are called the real line R1 and the real coordinate plane R2. With component-wise addition and scalar multiplication, it is a real vector space, and its elements are called coordinate vectors. The coordinates over any basis of the elements of a real vector space form a real coordinate space of the same dimension as that of the vector space.
GénéralUn général est un chef militaire de haut rang commandant une grande unité militaire interarmes (gendarmerie, infanterie, cavalerie, génie, marine, aviation) longtemps appelée armée. Dans le domaine militaire contemporain, un général est un officier de la gendarmerie, de l'Armée de terre ou de l'air dont le grade s'inscrit au sommet de la hiérarchie, laquelle comprend généralement dans l'ordre ascendant : les militaires du rang, les sous-officiers, les officiers subalternes, les officiers supérieurs et les officiers généraux.
Real projective lineIn geometry, a real projective line is a projective line over the real numbers. It is an extension of the usual concept of a line that has been historically introduced to solve a problem set by visual perspective: two parallel lines do not intersect but seem to intersect "at infinity". For solving this problem, points at infinity have been introduced, in such a way that in a real projective plane, two distinct projective lines meet in exactly one point.
Plan projectif réelEn géométrie, le plan projectif réel, noté RP ou P(R), est un exemple simple d'espace projectif (le corps des scalaires est constitué des nombres réels et la dimension est 2), permettant d'illustrer les mécanismes fondamentaux de la géométrie projective. Notamment, des représentations graphiques simples sont possibles qui font apparaître les caractéristiques propres à cette géométrie, contrairement au cas d'espaces construits sur d'autres corps.
