Exact solutions in general relativityIn general relativity, an exact solution is a solution of the Einstein field equations whose derivation does not invoke simplifying assumptions, though the starting point for that derivation may be an idealized case like a perfectly spherical shape of matter. Mathematically, finding an exact solution means finding a Lorentzian manifold equipped with tensor fields modeling states of ordinary matter, such as a fluid, or classical non-gravitational fields such as the electromagnetic field.
Fluid solutionIn general relativity, a fluid solution is an exact solution of the Einstein field equation in which the gravitational field is produced entirely by the mass, momentum, and stress density of a fluid. In astrophysics, fluid solutions are often employed as stellar models. (It might help to think of a perfect gas as a special case of a perfect fluid.) In cosmology, fluid solutions are often used as cosmological models.
Langmuir adsorption modelThe Langmuir adsorption model explains adsorption by assuming an adsorbate behaves as an ideal gas at isothermal conditions. According to the model, adsorption and desorption are reversible processes. This model even explains the effect of pressure i.e. at these conditions the adsorbate's partial pressure, , is related to the volume of it, V, adsorbed onto a solid adsorbent. The adsorbent, as indicated in the figure, is assumed to be an ideal solid surface composed of a series of distinct sites capable of binding the adsorbate.
Dust solutionIn general relativity, a dust solution is a fluid solution, a type of exact solution of the Einstein field equation, in which the gravitational field is produced entirely by the mass, momentum, and stress density of a perfect fluid that has positive mass density but vanishing pressure. Dust solutions are an important special case of fluid solutions in general relativity. A pressureless perfect fluid can be interpreted as a model of a configuration of dust particles that locally move in concert and interact with each other only gravitationally, from which the name is derived.
AdsorptionEn chimie, l’adsorption est un phénomène de surface par lequel des atomes, des ions ou des molécules - des adsorbats - se fixent sur une surface solide - l'adsorbant - depuis une phase gazeuse, liquide ou une solution solide. Dans le cas d'un atome adsorbé, on parle d'adatome. Ce phénomène est différent de l'absorption, par lequel un fluide ou le composant d'une solution solide rentre dans le volume d'une autre phase liquide ou solide, mais les deux effets sont similaires et sont facilement (et à tort) confondus, notamment dans des applications pour le grand public.
Minimal Supersymmetric Standard ModelThe Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model (MSSM) is an extension to the Standard Model that realizes supersymmetry. MSSM is the minimal supersymmetrical model as it considers only "the [minimum] number of new particle states and new interactions consistent with "Reality". Supersymmetry pairs bosons with fermions, so every Standard Model particle has a superpartner yet undiscovered. If discovered, such superparticles could be candidates for dark matter, and could provide evidence for grand unification or the viability of string theory.
Electrovacuum solutionIn general relativity, an electrovacuum solution (electrovacuum) is an exact solution of the Einstein field equation in which the only nongravitational mass–energy present is the field energy of an electromagnetic field, which must satisfy the (curved-spacetime) source-free Maxwell equations appropriate to the given geometry. For this reason, electrovacuums are sometimes called (source-free) Einstein–Maxwell solutions.
Kerr metricThe Kerr metric or Kerr geometry describes the geometry of empty spacetime around a rotating uncharged axially symmetric black hole with a quasispherical event horizon. The Kerr metric is an exact solution of the Einstein field equations of general relativity; these equations are highly non-linear, which makes exact solutions very difficult to find. The Kerr metric is a generalization to a rotating body of the Schwarzschild metric, discovered by Karl Schwarzschild in 1915, which described the geometry of spacetime around an uncharged, spherically symmetric, and non-rotating body.
Modèle standard de la physique des particulesvignette|upright=2.0|Modèle standard des particules élémentaires avec les trois générations de fermions (trois premières colonnes), les bosons de jauge (quatrième colonne) et le boson de Higgs (cinquième colonne). Le modèle standard de la physique des particules est une théorie qui concerne l'électromagnétisme, les interactions nucléaires faible et forte, et la classification de toutes les particules subatomiques connues. Elle a été développée pendant la deuxième moitié du , dans une initiative collaborative mondiale, sur les bases de la mécanique quantique.
Physique au-delà du modèle standardLa physique au-delà du modèle standard se rapporte aux développements théoriques de la physique des particules nécessaires pour expliquer les défaillances du modèle standard, telles que l'origine de la masse, le problème de la violation CP de l'interaction forte, les oscillations des neutrinos, l'asymétrie matière-antimatière, et la nature de la matière noire et de l'énergie noire.
