Extensivité et intensivité (physique)Les grandeurs extensives et intensives sont des catégories de grandeurs physiques d'un système physique : une propriété est « intensive » si sa valeur ne dépend pas de la taille du système (en particulier, si sa valeur est la même en tout point d'un système homogène) : par exemple, la température ou la pression ; une propriété est « extensive » si elle est proportionnelle à une quantité caractéristique du système : par exemple, la masse ou le volume.
Objet célesteAn astronomical object, celestial object, stellar object or heavenly body is a naturally occurring physical entity, association, or structure that exists within the observable universe. In astronomy, the terms object and body are often used interchangeably. However, an astronomical body or celestial body is a single, tightly bound, contiguous entity, while an astronomical or celestial object is a complex, less cohesively bound structure, which may consist of multiple bodies or even other objects with substructures.
Physical propertyA physical property is any property that is measurable, involved in the state of a physical system, whose value represents the intensity on the object's state and behavior. The changes in the physical properties of a system can be used to describe its changes between momentary states. A quantifiable physical property is called physical quantity. Measurable physical quantities are often referred to as observables. Physical properties are often characterized as intensive and extensive properties.
