These quantum numbers only occur in certain combinations of values, and their physical interpretation changes depending on whether real or complex versions of the atomic orbitals are employed.

If one quantizes a real scalar field, then one finds that there is only one kind of annihilation operator ; therefore, real scalar fields describe neutral bosons.

Applesoft converted integer numbers to real before performing operations on them, converting the result back to an integer only if it was to be assigned to a ( 16-bit signed ) integer variable.

An ideal amplifier would be a totally linear device, but real amplifiers are only linear within limits.

" The divine call for massacre at Jericho and elsewhere can be explained in terms of cultural norms ( Israel wasn't the only Iron Age state to practice herem ) and theology ( a measure to ensure Israel's purity as well as the fulfillment of God's promise ), but Patrick D. Miller in his commentary on Deuteronomy remarks, " there is no real way to make such reports palatable to the hearts and minds of contemporary readers and believers.

" The problem then becomes that of constructing a well-ordering, which turns out to require the axiom of choice for its existence ; every set can be well-ordered if and only if the axiom of choice holds.

The discovery of CP violation helped to shed light on this problem by showing that this symmetry, originally thought to be perfect, was only approximate.

For the frequent case of propositional logic, the problem is decidable but Co-NP-complete, and hence only exponential-time algorithms are believed to exist for general proof tasks.

The problem of acid rain has not only increased with population and industrial growth, but has become more widespread.

This is a problem that the government is trying to solve by linking the liberation of new technologies ( such as WiMax or PLC ) only tied with compromises on extension of the service to less populated regions.

Remaining issues, such as the cuspy halo problem and the dwarf galaxy problem of cold dark matter, are not fatal to the dark matter explanation as solutions to such problems exist which involve only further refinements of the theory.

A backplane does not suffer from this problem, so its service life is limited only by the longevity of its connectors.

The problem was exacerbated by the orders to only anchor at the bow, which allowed the ships to swing with the wind and widened the gaps.

In complexity theory, the satisfiability problem ( SAT ) is a decision problem, whose instance is a Boolean expression written using only AND, OR, NOT, variables, and parentheses.
