A variety of topics in Physics such as crystallography, metallurgy, elasticity, magnetism, etc., were treated as distinct areas, until the 1940s when they were grouped together as Solid state physics.

According to physicist Phil Anderson, the term was coined by himself and Volker Heine when they changed the name of their group at the Cavendish Laboratories, Cambridge from " Solid state theory " to " Theory of Condensed Matter ", as they felt it did not exclude their interests in the study of liquids, nuclear matter and so on.

* Solid state circuit with crossing leads, filed April 1961, issued August 1965, assigned to Fairchild Camera and Instrument Corp.

Solid state ( electronics ) | Solid state relay with no moving parts

Solid state may refer to:

* Solid state ( electronics ), circuits built of solid materials

* Solid state relay, an electronic switch built of solid materials

Solid is the state in which matter maintains a fixed volume and shape ; liquid is the state in which its volume varies only slightly, but adapts to the shape of its container ; and gas is the state in which matter expands to occupy the volume and shape of its container.

Solid is the state in which intermolecular attractions keep the molecules in fixed spatial relationships.

* Solid state ( MOSFET or silicon diode ) dosimeter

Solid state methods

* Solid state, tapered chain shock absorbers, using one or more tapered, axial alignment ( s ) of granular spheres, typically made of metals such as nitinol, in a casing.

* Solid state laser

Solid state controls are used in gas and electric applications at the high range of the performance and cost spectrum.

Reconstruction caused lasting bitterness among white Southerners toward the federal government, and helped create the " Solid South ," which typically voted for Democrats for local, state, and national office.

Solid state relays now make this possible.

Solid core coil design result in a more efficient transfer of electrical energy into a magnetic field, with a substantially reduced amount of energy dissipated as heat, and so can be operated under more aggressive duty cycles often mandated in therapeutic protocols, without treatment interruption due to heat accumulation, or the use of an accessory method of cooling the coil during operation.

In Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty Snake actually uses the alias " Pliskin " to hide his real identity during the game.

* CASL is a proprietary log-structured filesystem that uses Solid State Devices to cache traditional hard drives ( http :// www. nimblestorage. com / products / architecture /).

Solid soap, because of its reusable nature, may hold bacteria acquired from previous uses.

Solid mechanics extensively uses tensors to describe stresses, strains, and the relationship between them.

The rest of Snake's radio support crew includes Mei Ling ( the only other character from the original Metal Gear Solid besides Snake and Campbell ), a communication expert who saves the player's progress ; Ronard " Weasel " Lensenbrink, a mercenary who provides information about the weapons Snake uses and the enemy he faces ; and Brian McBride, a CIA agent who provides information about the geopolitical environment of Gindra.

Solid Snakes also uses her handkerchief to avoid wolf attacks by masking his scent with hers.

In contrast to many other 3D modelling applications, BRL-CAD uses Constructive Solid Geometry rather than Boundary Representation.

* Solid state disk-a class of storage devices, including RAM disks, that uses solid state devices for secondary storage.

( Not to be confused with Dave Taylor, who is signed to Classic Records, who uses the moniker Swing and Solid Groove.

Solid State Physics Group leader William Shockley saw the potential in this, and over the next few months worked to greatly expand the knowledge of semiconductors.

Solid State Society is a sequel to the TV anime series storyline, and so takes place in a separate continuity.

Solid black spots in place of open rosettes are generally seen along the face, limbs and underbelly.

Solid gear, but difficult to place.

Metal Gear Solid, along with its sequel, Metal Gear Solid 2, is being featured in the Smithsonian American Art Museum's " The Art of Video Games " exhibition, taking place from March 16 to September 30, 2012.

The overarching theme of the Metal Gear Solid series is that of the " gene, meme, scene, sense and peace " and how people are affected by these factors according to the game's producer Kojima — Metal Gear Solid deals with genetics and the moral implications of genetic engineering, Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty deals with how identity can be affected by the philosophies of one's society ( a ' meme ') and the effects of censorship on society, Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater deals with how the time and place one lives in ( a ' scene ') affects their identity and how politics change along with the times, and Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots deals with the ' sense ' that people die, things move on and times change, and that life should not be defined by fighting.

Metal Gear Solid and Metal Gear Solid 2 will be featured in the Smithsonian American Art Museum's " The Art of Video Games " exhibition taking place from 16 March to 30 September 2012.

The house band for MuppeTelevision was called Solid Foam, taking the place of the psychedelic Electric Mayhem band that had appeared in most previous Muppet projects.

Act 4 of Metal Gear Solid 4 also takes place at the fictional Shadow Moses Island.

In 2011, he was voted by Sunderland fans for a place in Sunderland Solid Gold XI.

In the following year, the second symphonic game music concert took place in Leipzig as part of the " Games Convention 2004 " opening ceremony, performed by the Prague FILMharmonic Orchestra, where Fabian produced three music pieces: The Secret of Monkey Island, Turrican and Metal Gear Solid and worked as synthesizer programmer for the concert.

Prototyping for the game took place on the GameCube, but the staff at Silicon Knights soon devoted their efforts towards two other releases, Eternal Darkness: Sanity's Requiem and Metal Gear Solid: The Twin Snakes, with further news of Too Human becoming mute, without any indication of future development being announced until five years later in 2005.

As an oldies station, Solid Gold 102 was in 2nd place to WOGL.
