A virtual particle is one that does not precisely obey the relationship for a short time.

For bosonic particles that exhibit rest mass when they are free and " real ," virtual interactions are characterized by the relatively short range of the force interaction produced by particle exchange.

However, in the case of photons, power and information transfer by virtual particles is a relatively short-range phenomenon ( existing only within a few wavelengths of the field-disturbance, which carries information or transferred power ), as for example seen in the characteristically short range of inductive and capacitative effects in the near field zone of coils and antennas.

The need for the normal ordering of particle fields in the vacuum can be interpreted by the idea that a pair of virtual particles may briefly " pop into existence ", and then annihilate each other a short while later.

* 2005 Mirrored Mind ( 鏡心 ・ 3Dサウンド完全版, Kyōshin: 3D Saundo Kanzenban ), a re-edited and extended version of Ishii's short film for Digital Short Films by Three Filmmakers 2004, designed to be screened using a unique " 3D virtual sound " system.

In electronics, the ideal model ( infinite gain ) of an operational amplifier is said to produce a virtual short circuit between its input terminals because no matter what the output voltage is, the difference of potential between its input terminals is zero.

An ideal operational amplifier also has infinite input impedance, so unlike a real short circuit, no current flows between the terminals of the virtual short.

* A virtual Bakelite museum with a short biography of Leo Baekeland

Since they consume relatively few resources, multiple virtual machines can easily be hosted on one physical system, the virtual systems have a short response time, and less code is required, reducing the complexity of the security of the virtual systems.

In Chaosmosis, Guattari explains that " rather than moving in the direction of reductionist modifications which simplify the complex ," schizoanalysis " will work towards its complexification, its processual enrichment, towards the consistency of its virtual lines of bifurcation and differentiation, in short towards its ontological heterogeneity.

Associated with the vacuum energy are the virtual particles, which are known to be particle pairs that blink into existence and then annihilate in a timespan too short for us to measure.

Ordinarily, quantum field theory does not deal with virtual particles of sufficient energy to curve spacetime significantly, so quantum foam is a speculative extension of these concepts which imagines the consequences of such high-energy virtual particles at very short distances and times.

The foregoing factors are pertinent to the analysis of perceptual images and the broad conditions under which they achieve realism or fall short of it.

Tolerance and compromise, social justice and civil liberty, are today too often in short supply for one to be overly critical of Trevelyan's emphasis on their central place in the English tradition.

However, any oxygen nonequivalence would shorten either the already extremely short Af interlayer distance of 2.55 A or the non-hydrogen-bonded Af interlayer interactions which are already quite short at 2.58 Aj.

The lower portion permits comparison of maturity levels of short and round bones predominantly, since only two long bones are included in Hand and Wrist as a region.

Over a relatively short period of time, usually about four to twelve weeks, the worker must be able to shift the focus, back and forth, between immediate external stressful exigencies ( `` precipitating stress '' ) and the key, emotionally relevant issues ( `` underlying problem '' ) which are, often in a dramatic preconscious breakthrough, reactivated by the crisis situation, and hence once again amenable to resolution.

The Communists are adept at utilizing hostilities short of general war and will do so whenever it is to their advantage.

At the beginning of the school year, the new students don't eat the cereal right away, but within a short time they are eating it voraciously.

Will it be short stories, fiction, nonfiction, biography, poetry, children's stories, or even a book if you are really ambitious??

Despite the sheer beauty and spectacle of numerous documentaries, art films, and travelogues, despite the impressive financial success of such a recent development as Cinerama, the movies are at heart a form of fiction, like the play, the novel, or the short story.

Naturally, enterprises of the size of General Electric are in a position to structure their prices in such a way that the relatively small competitors can be forced to the wall in a very short time.
