and enzymes which terminate the action of peptides such as bradykinin and perhaps Substance Z were studied.

If the Z gyro is drifting, a current generated by the autocollimator is delivered to the gyro torquer to cancel the drift.

When the platform is level, **ye is a rotation about the Z axis of the platform Af.

Algeria had also won an Oscar for the movie Z, a political thriller directed by Costa Gavras.

It is conventionally represented by the symbol Z.

The atomic number, Z, should not be confused with the mass number, A, which is the number of nucleons, the total number of protons and neutrons in the nucleus of an atom.

The number of neutrons, N, is known as the neutron number of the atom ; thus, A = Z + N. Since protons and neutrons have approximately the same mass ( and the mass of the electrons is negligible for many purposes ), and the mass defect is usually very small compared to the mass, the atomic mass of an atom is roughly equal to A.

Atoms having the same atomic number Z but different neutron number N, and hence different atomic mass, are known as isotopes.

The conventional symbol Z comes from the German word meaning number / numeral / figure, which prior to the modern synthesis of ideas from chemistry and physics, merely denoted an element's numerical place in the periodic table.

Only after 1915, with the suggestion and evidence that this Z number was also the nuclear charge and a physical characteristic of atoms, did the word and its English equivalent atomic number come into common use.

This placement is consistent with the modern practice of ordering the elements by proton number, Z, but this number was not known or suspected at the time.

Moseley, after discussions with Bohr who was at the same lab ( and who had used Van den Broek's hypothesis in his Bohr model of the atom ), decided to test Van den Broek and Bohr's hypothesis directly, by seeing if spectral lines emitted from excited atoms fit the Bohr theory's demand that the frequency of the spectral lines be proportional to a measure of the square of Z.

To do this, Moseley measured the wavelengths of the innermost photon transitions ( K and L lines ) produced by the elements from aluminum ( Z = 13 ) to gold ( Z = 79 ) used as a series of movable anodic targets inside an x-ray tube.

This led to the conclusion ( Moseley's law ) that the atomic number does closely correspond ( with an offset of one unit for K-lines, in Moseley's work ) to the calculated electric charge of the nucleus, i. e. the proton number Z.

* In elementary arithmetic, the set of integers, Z, considered as a group under addition, has a unique nontrivial automorphism: negation.

Puttenham, in the time of Elizabeth I of England, wished to start from Elissabet Anglorum Regina ( Elizabeth Queen of the English ), to obtain Multa regnabis ense gloria ( By thy sword shalt thou reign in great renown ); he explains carefully that H is " a note of aspiration only and no letter ", and that Z in Greek or Hebrew is a mere SS.

William Drummond of Hawthornden, in an essay On the Character of a Perfect Anagram, tried to lay down permissible rules ( such as S standing for Z ), and possible letter omissions.

William Camden in his Remains commented, singling out some letters — Æ, K, W, Z — not found in the classical Roman alphabet:

The 21 consonant letters in the English alphabet are B, C, D, F, G, H, J, K, L, M, N, P, Q, R, S, T, V, X, Z, and usually W and Y: The letter Y stands for the consonant in " yoke ", the vowel in " myth " and the vowel in " funny ", and " yummy " for both consonant and vowel, for examples ; W almost always represents a consonant except in rare words ( mostly loanwords from Welsh ) like " crwth " " cwm ".

Some scientists and engineers have expressed reservations about nuclear power, including: Barry Commoner, S. David Freeman, John Gofman, Arnold Gundersen, Mark Z. Jacobson, Amory Lovins, Arjun Makhijani, Gregory Minor, Joseph Romm and Benjamin K. Sovacool.

Some drummers even use completely mismatched hi-hats from different cymbal ranges ( Zildjian's K / Z hats ), of different manufacturers, and even of different sizes ( similar to the K Custom Session Hats where the top hat is a sixteenth of an inch smaller than the bottom ).

The aztec gods and goddess were mainly taken from the sources of Francisco Javier Clavijero, Alfredo Chavero, Francisco del Paso y Troncoso, Manuel Orozco y Berra and Bernardino de Sahagún, where depending on the source the suffixes of the Aztec names are exchanged " Lli ", " Li ", " Tl ", " Tli ", " Tlli " as occasionally the initials of the Aztec names are changed " Ch ", " C ", " Qu ", " X ", " K ", " Z ".
