The black Fudo seemed to stare rigidly back at him and Richard's eyes were caught by the Fudo's in fascination, and then Richard was shocked as, all at once, flames shot out from the sharp features of Fudo's face and there was a terrible metallic scraping sound, as if the large statue were about to burst from some pressure within it.

The cold-vapor technique an atomization method limited to only the determination of mercury, due to it being the only metallic element to have a large enough vapor pressure at ambient temperature.

This process can yield large amounts of metallic sodium and gaseous chlorine, and is widely used on mineral dressing and metallurgy industries.

The strength of metallic bonds for different metals reaches a maximum around the center of the transition metal series, as those elements have large amounts of delocalized electrons in tight binding type metallic bonds.

Meteorites have traditionally been divided into three broad categories: stony meteorites are rocks, mainly composed of silicate minerals ; iron meteorites are largely composed of metallic iron-nickel ; and, stony-iron meteorites contain large amounts of both metallic and rocky material.

Particularly in the weightless conditions of space, sunlight can be used directly, using large solar ovens made of lightweight metallic foil so as to generate thousands of degrees of heat ; or reflected onto crops to enable photosynthesis to proceed.

A space vessel spreading its large, metallic wings, acres in extent, to the full, might be blown to the limit of Neptune's orbit.

As both scientists discovered thallium independently and a large part of the work, especially the isolation of the metallic thallium was done by Lamy, Crookes tried to secure his priority on the work.

When the electrical circuit, consisting of a Daniell cell, a galvanometer of high resistance, and the metallic conductor, consisting of the ebonite plate, and the sheet of copper, or of the tube containing the filings, was completed, only a very small current flowed ; but there was a sudden diminution of the resistance, which was proved by a large deviation of the galvanometer needle when one or more electric discharges were produced in the neighbourhood of the circuit.

In 1980, Dolenz produced and directed the sitcom Metal Mickey, featuring a large metallic robot with the catch-phrase " boogie boogie.

Rock gongs are large stones struck with smaller stones to create a metallic resonating sound.

Gas giant planets such as Jupiter ( pictured above ) and Saturn may contain large amounts of metallic hydrogen ( depicted in grey )

Liquid metallic hydrogen is thought to be present in large amounts in the gravitationally compressed interiors of Jupiter, Saturn, and some of the newly discovered extrasolar planets.

Hence in case of a metal with large overlapped region the electrical conductivity is high along with good metallic property.

It has a distinctive appearance with two large contra-rotating discs mounted in a vertical plane, two crossed bars with metallic brushes, and a spark gap formed by two metal spheres.

A large family of metallic perovskite compounds can be represented by RT < sub > 3 </ sub > M ( R: rare-earth or other relatively large ion, T: transition metal ion and M: light metalloids ).

It is notable for its green, insect-like appearance and large metallic pincers.

It's a robust bird with a thick neck, large round head and a wide, strong conical beak with a metallic appearance.

Asian arowana scales are large, cycloid, and, in some varieties, metallic coloured, with a distinctive mosaic pattern of raised ribs.

A caecilian's skin has a large number of transverse folds and in some species contains tiny embedded dermal scales.

Since the first pioneering efforts of Florey and Chain in 1939, the importance of antibiotics, including antibacterials, to medicine has led to intense research into producing antibacterials at large scales.

The cosmological principle states that on large scales the Universe is homogeneous and isotropic.

The cosmological principle implies that the metric should be homogeneous and isotropic on large scales, which uniquely singles out the Friedmann – Lemaître – Robertson – Walker metric ( FLRW metric ).

Because the FLRW metric assumes a uniform distribution of mass and energy, it applies to our Universe only on large scales — local concentrations of matter such as our galaxy are gravitationally bound and as such do not experience the large-scale expansion of space.

A measure of charge should be a multiple of the elementary charge e, even if at large scales, charge seems to behave as a real quantity.

* Filter ( large eddy simulation ), in the context of large eddy simulation ( LES ) is a mathematical operation intended to remove a range of small scales from the solution to the Navier-Stokes equations

The fish has no scales, except for a single line of large mirror scales dorsally, extending from head to tail.

The third type is the same as the second, with the addition of a line of ( often quite large ) scales running along the lateral line ( along the side ) of the fish, also referred to as " mirror koi ".

The fourth ( and rarest ) type is referred to as " armor koi " and are completely ( or nearly ) covered with very large scales that resemble plates of armor.

Such mode-locked lasers are a most versatile tool for researching processes occurring on extremely short time scales ( known as femtosecond physics, femtosecond chemistry and ultrafast science ), for maximizing the effect of nonlinearity in optical materials ( e. g. in second-harmonic generation, parametric down-conversion, optical parametric oscillators and the like ) due to the large peak power, and in ablation applications.

# Perch: coming from Nile, its skin is recognizable with its large, round and soft scales.

The large / small terminology arose from the practice of writing scales as numerical fractions: 1 / 10, 000 is larger than 1 / 10, 000, 000.

Notably the Internet Relay Chat ( IRC ), which is more pragmatic and scales better for large numbers of small groups.

In large scales, particularly for garden railways, radio control and DCC in the garden have become popular.

Other effective theories are heavy quark effective theory ( which expands around heavy quark mass near infinity ), and soft-collinear effective theory ( which expands around large ratios of energy scales ).

Such a theory of quantum gravity would yield the same experimental results as ordinary quantum mechanics in conditions of weak gravity ( gravitational potentials much less than c < sup > 2 </ sup >) and the same results as Einsteinian general relativity in phenomena at scales much larger than individual molecules ( action much larger than reduced Planck's constant ), but moreover be able to predict the outcome of situations where both quantum effects and strong-field gravity are important ( at the Planck scale, unless large extra dimension conjectures are correct ).

) Furthermore, many theorists agree that even the Standard Model should really be regarded as an effective field theory as well, with " nonrenormalizable " interactions suppressed by large energy scales and whose effects have consequently not been observed experimentally.

For large scales, megametre, gigametre, and larger are rarely used.

T-duality relates the large and small distance scales between string theories, whereas S-duality relates strong and weak coupling strengths between string theories.

In physics, emergence is used to describe a property, law, or phenomenon which occurs at macroscopic scales ( in space or time ) but not at microscopic scales, despite the fact that a macroscopic system can be viewed as a very large ensemble of microscopic systems.

NSWRs share many of the features of Orion propulsion systems, except that NSWRs would generate continuous rather than pulsed thrust and may be workable on much smaller scales than the smallest feasible Orion designs ( which are generally large, due to the requirements of the shock-absorber system and the minimum size of efficient nuclear explosives ).
