Perhaps its most important and prominent usage in scientific literature was Nobel laureate Theodor W. Hänsch's reference in a 1979 Scientific American article on spectroscopy where he says that " the spectrum of the hydrogen atoms has proved to be the Rosetta stone of modern physics: once this pattern of lines had been deciphered much else could also be understood ".

For homogeneous turbulence ( i. e., statistically invariant under translations of the reference frame ) this is usually done by means of the energy spectrum function, where k is the modulus of the wavevector corresponding to some harmonics in a Fourier representation of the flow velocity field u ( x ):

Given the limited spectrum a wholesale model as noted by the EU Commission reference 2 in such situation is chosen.

For case 1 ), for example, one can assemble data from a number of samples, including concentrations for an analyte of interest for each sample ( the reference ) and the corresponding infrared spectrum of that sample.

The specificity also allows unknown samples to be identified by comparing a measured spectrum with a library of reference spectra.

The absorption coefficient for some compounds is available from reference sources, and it can also be determined by measuring the spectrum of a calibration standard with a known concentration of the target.

The most straightforward approach to absorption spectroscopy is to generate radiation with a source, measure a reference spectrum of that radiation with a detector and then re-measure the sample spectrum after placing the material of interest in between the source and detector.

In an essay called “ The Formalist Critics ,” he says that “ the formalist critic assumes an ideal reader: that is, instead of focusing on the varying spectrum of possible readings, he attempts to find a central point of reference from which he can focus upon the structure of the poem or novel ” ( qtd.

The reference configuration need not be one that the body will ever occupy.

which is a mapping of the initial configuration onto the current configuration, giving a geometrical correspondence between them, i. e. giving the position vector that a particle, with a position vector in the undeformed or reference configuration, will occupy in the current or deformed configuration at time.

There is an apparent reference to the resurrection in the book of Job, where Job says, " I know that my redeemer lives, and that he will stand at the latter day upon the earth.

In a rotating frame of reference, the time derivatives of the position vector, such as velocity and acceleration vectors, of an object will differ from the time derivatives in the stationary frame according to the frame's rotation.

The first holder of the title was John Churchill, 1st Duke of Marlborough ( 1650 – 1722 ), the noted English general, and indeed an unqualified reference to the Duke of Marlborough in a historical text will almost certainly refer to him.

The 1976 definition of the astronomical unit was incomplete, in particular because it does not specify the frame of reference in which time is to be measured, but proved practical for the calculation of ephemerides: a fuller definition that is consistent with general relativity was proposed, and " vigorous debate " ensued until in August 2012 the International Astronomical Union adopted the current definition of 1 astronomical unit = 149597870700 meters.
