** WWII ends: The final official surrender of Japan is accepted by the Supreme Allied Commander, General Douglas MacArthur, and Fleet Admiral Chester Nimitz for the United States, and delegates from Australia, New Zealand, the United Kingdom, The Netherlands, China, and others from a Japanese delegation led by Mamoru Shigemitsu, on board the American battleship USS Missouri in Tokyo Bay.

** Battle of Placentia — Emperor Aurelian is defeated by the Alemanni forces invading Italy

** Battle of Fano — Aurelian defeats the Alemanni, who begin to retreat from Italy

** Battle of Pavia — Aurelian destroys the retreating Alemanni army.

** Battle of Lingones — Caesar Constantius Chlorus defeats the Alemanni

** Thoracic aorta — the half of the descending aorta above the diaphragm

** France — voltage change 3 kV DC – 25 kV AC

** Germany — voltage change 3 kV DC – 15 kV AC

** Luxembourg — no voltage change at the border ( the line Arlon-Luxembourg is at 3 kV DC and the line Gouvy-Luxembourg is at 25 kV AC )

** Channel Tunnel — voltage remains at 25 kV AC.

** UK — voltage remains at 25 kV AC — voltage change 750 V DC third rail ( The Southern Region ).

** CS — Caught stealing: times tagged out while attempting to steal a base

** SBA / ATT — Stolen base attempts: total number of times the player has attempted to steal a base ( SB + CS )

** DI — Defensive Indifference: if the catcher does not attempt to throw out a runner ( usually because the base would be insignificant ), the runner is not awarded a steal.

** Autecology: autotroph — heterotroph — acclimatization — endotherm — ectotherm — hibernation — homeostasis — behavior — circadian rhythm

** In power engineering, a " bus " is any graph node of the single-line diagram at which voltage, current, power flow, or other quantities are to be evaluated.

** A ground bus or earth bus is a conductor used as a zero voltage reference in a system, often connected to ground or earth.

** The voltage applied to the deflection yoke is adjusted by various means ( transformers, capacitors, center-tapped windings ) so that the half-way voltage on the sawtooth's cliff is at the zero mark, meaning that a negative voltage will cause deflection in one direction, and a positive voltage deflection in the other ; thus, a center-mounted deflection yoke can use the whole screen area to depict a trace.

** Power supply rail or voltage rail, a single voltage provided by a power supply unit

** Resistance, measured in ohms – produces a voltage proportional to the current flowing through the element.

** Capacitance, measured in farads – produces a current proportional to the rate of change of voltage across the element.

** Voltage-controlled voltage source ( VCVS ) Generates a voltage based on another voltage with respect to a specified gain.

** Voltage-controlled current source ( VCCS ) Generates a current based on a voltage with respect to a specified gain, used to model field-effect transistors and vacuum tubes ( has infinite input impedance and infinite output impedance ).

** Current-controlled voltage source ( CCVS ) Generates a voltage based on an input current with respect to a specified gain.

** Geophone – converts a ground movement ( displacement ) into voltage ( vibrations → motion of conductor / coil → magnetic field → signal )

** High voltage, a type of electrical installation
