The FPU in the 6x86 was largely the same circuitry that was developed for Cyrix's earlier high performance 8087 / 80287 / 80387-compatible coprocessors, which was very fast for its time — the Cyrix FPU was much faster than the 80387, and even the 80486 FPU.

The process may extends to huge sparks — streamers in lightning discharges propagate by formation of electron avalanches created in the high potential gradient ahead of the streamers ' advancing tips.

Every hyperbola is congruent to the origin-centered East-West opening hyperbola sharing its same eccentricity ε ( its shape, or degree of " spread "), and is also congruent to the origin-centered North-South opening hyperbola with identical eccentricity ε — that is, it can be rotated so that it opens in the desired direction and can be translated ( rigidly moved in the plane ) so that it is centered at the origin.

The Russian-American poet Joseph Brodsky one manifested that " The surest defense against Evil is extreme individualism, originality of thinking, whimsicality, even — if you will — eccentricity.

The expressions below give the auxiliary latitudes in terms of the geodetic latitude, the semi-major axis, a, and the eccentricity, e.

During his lifetime, Cosimo acquired a reputation for eccentricity — a reputation enhanced and exaggerated by later commentators such as Giorgio Vasari, who included a biography of Piero di Cosimo in his Lives of the Artists.

* Intelligent Graph Visualizer — IGV create and edit graph, automatically places graph, search shortest path (+ coloring vertices ), center, degree, eccentricity, etc.

A central vertex in a graph of radius is one whose eccentricity is — that is, a vertex that achieves the radius.

David Fricke of Rolling Stone said Wellwater Conspiracy " upgrade the fragrant eccentricity of vintage U. K. flower power — spaced riffing, spiked-afternoon-tea lyrics — with modern muscle.

This in turn produces a truncated, normalized society of soulless mediocrity where evil is not allowed but injustice is everywhere — a society that cannot tolerate eccentricity or the further reaches of life experiences but sees them as illnesses to be medicated out of existence.

* In 1979, an asteroid — 1979 Sakharov — was named after him.

It is similar to the asteroid belt, although it is far larger — 20 times as wide and 20 to 200 times as massive.

Still, in the book Protector ( 1973 ), the Martians are brutally exterminated by a large water asteroid deliberately hurled at the planet, raising the water content in the atmosphere to a degree deadly to them, by Jack Brennan, a human who had turned into a Pak Protector — a creature completely devoted to protecting its descendants, or sometimes his entire species, and is unreasonably xenophobic towards anybody else.

* 1459 Magnya — Orbits in the outer asteroid belt, too far from Vesta to be genetically related.

The physical system itself need not be symmetric ; a jagged asteroid tumbling in space conserves angular momentum despite its asymmetry — it is the laws of its motion that are symmetric.
