* BCS theory predicts the dependence of the value of the energy gap E at temperature T on the critical temperature T < sub > c </ sub >.

BCS theory relates the value of the critical field at zero temperature to the value of the transition temperature and the density of states at the Fermi energy.

According to the United States Department of Energy, the wide range of its current and projected uses, together with the lack of any immediately suitable replacement, makes dysprosium the single most critical element for emerging clean energy technologies-even their most conservative projections predict a shortfall of dysprosium before 2015.

Different types may significantly differ in their properties, and the optimal mix of storage types is determined by the types and quantities of operations that each storage type needs to perform, as well as considerations like physical space and energy consumption and dissipation ( which may become critical for a large database ).

He was the author of techniques ( such as the still-used Fuchs-Nordheim method ) for calculating the energy of a fissile assembly which goes highly prompt critical.

Once the nuclear lobes have been pushed to a critical distance, beyond which the short range strong force can no longer hold them together, the process of their separation proceeds from the energy of the ( longer range ) electromagnetic repulsion between the fragments.

In a critical fission reactor, neutrons produced by fission of fuel atoms are used to induce yet more fissions, to sustain a controllable amount of energy release.

Total Solar Irradiance upon Earth ( TSI ) was earlier measured by satellite to be roughly 1. 366 kilowatts per square meter ( kW / m² ), but most recently NASA cites TSI as " 1361 W / m² as compared to ~ 1366 W / m² from earlier observations et al., 2005 ", based on regular readings from NASA's Solar Radiation and Climate Experiment ( SORCE ) satellite, active since 2003, noting that this " discovery is critical in examining the energy budget of the planet Earth and isolating the climate change due to human activities.

Superconducting Magnetic Energy Storage ( SMES ) systems store energy in the magnetic field created by the flow of direct current in a superconducting coil which has been cryogenically cooled to a temperature below its superconducting critical temperature.

In lieu of the cosmological constant itself, cosmologists often refer to the ratio between the energy density due to the cosmological constant and the critical density of the universe.

Note that this definition is tied to the critical density of the present cosmological era: the critical density changes with cosmological time, but the energy density due to the cosmological constant remains unchanged throughout the history of the universe.

The resultant fate depends on whether the critical defect size was exceeded which in turn depends on the applied field, local mechanical stress and bilayer edge energy.

There are two possible routes to a supernova: either a massive star may run out of fuel, ceasing to generate fusion energy in its core, and collapsing inward under the force of its own gravity to form a neutron star or a black hole ; or a white dwarf star may accumulate ( accrete ) material from a companion star until it reaches a critical mass and undergoes a thermonuclear explosion.

The basic concept of implosion is to use chemical explosives to crush a chunk of fissile material into a critical mass, where neutron multiplication leads to a nuclear chain reaction, which suddenly releases a large amount of energy.

The material used to make a photodiode is critical to defining its properties, because only photons with sufficient energy to excite electrons across the material's bandgap will produce significant photocurrents.

A critical measure of the viability of oil shale as an energy source lies in the ratio of the energy produced by the shale to the energy used in its mining and processing, a ratio known as " Energy Returned on Energy Invested " ( EROEI ).

In 2011, it was demonstrated that the methylation of mRNA has a critical role in human energy homeostasis.

The hypothalamus regulates sleep and wake cycles, eating and drinking, hormone release, and many other critical biological functions.

In contrast, the director's cut of Scott's Kingdom of Heaven ( which was a commercial failure in its 2005 theatrical release ) is the true version of the film Scott wanted, nearly an hour longer and has been met with more critical acclaim than the original version.

The album was a critical success but received a low-key release and only made number 87 in the UK charts.

Despite the movie's poor box office and critical reception at the time of its original release, it is gradually becoming a favorite among fans due to its dark nature, brief but entertaining kaiju battles, and the return of series veterans Ishiro Honda and Akira Ifukube.

Several months after the original film's Japanese release, an English dub of the film was distributed internationally by Manga Entertainment to critical acclaim, developing the film's fanbase outside of Japan.

The end of the Production Code of America in 1964, the financial successes of the low-budget gore films of the ensuing years, and the critical and popular success of Rosemary's Baby, led to the release of more films with occult themes in the 1970s.

Demme's next film, 1980's Melvin and Howard, did not get a wide release, but received a groundswell of critical acclaim, and led to the signing of Demme to direct the Goldie Hawn and Kurt Russell star vehicle Swing Shift.

Two reviews published shortly after its release foreshadowed the enormous critical acclaim " Forever Changes " would engender from critics worldwide in the ensuing decades.

Regulating ER release of Ca < sup > 2 +</ sup > at the MAM is especially critical because only a certain window of Ca < sup > 2 +</ sup > uptake sustains the mitochondria, and consequently the cell, at homeostasis.

Meanwhile, concentrating on hot films, Paramount was met with critical success with the release of The Godfather, based on the popular novel.

Quake has received near-universal critical acclaim from reviewers since its release, receiving an aggregated score of 94 % on both Metacritic and GameRankings.

The system is not used for any safety critical or weapon critical tasks, such as weapon release or lowering of the undercarriage, but is used for a wide range of other cockpit functions.

Night of the Living Dead was heavily criticized at its release owing to explicit content, but eventually garnered critical acclaim and has been selected by the Library of Congress for preservation in the National Film Registry as a film deemed " culturally, historically or aesthetically significant.
