The simple names s orbital, p orbital, d orbital and f orbital refer to orbitals with angular momentum quantum number l = 0, 1, 2 and 3 respectively.

The repeating periodicity of the blocks of 2, 6, 10, and 14 elements within sections of the periodic table arises naturally from the total number of electrons which occupy a complete set of s, p, d and f atomic orbitals, respectively.

The angular factors of atomic orbitals Θ ( θ ) Φ ( φ ) generate s, p, d, etc.

In jazz an unscored collaborative arrangement is called a " head arrangement " ( Randel 2002, p. 294 ; it is in the head of the musician ( s )).

Bonding usually discussed in the context of molecular orbital theory, which recognizes the triple bond as arising from overlap of s and p orbitals.

Typically the chemistry of complexes is dominated by interactions between s and p molecular orbitals of the ligands and the d orbitals of the metal ions.

Postmodern critical research is also characterized by what is called, the crisis of representation, which rejects the idea that a researcher ’ s work is considered an “ objective depiction of a stable other ” ( Lindlof & Taylor, 2002, p. 53 ).

Despite its rare use, Italian orthography allows the circumflex accent ( î ) too, in two cases: it can be found in old literary context ( roughly up to 19th century ) to signal a syncope ( fêro → fecero, they did ), or in modern Italian to signal the contraction of ″- ii ″ due to the plural ending-i whereas the root ends with another-i ; e. g., s. demonio, p. demonii → demonî ; in this case the circumflex also signals that the word intended is not demoni, plural of " demone " by shifting the accent ( demònî, " devils "; dèmoni, " demons ").

Since all probabilities p < sub > i </ sub > add up to one: p < sub > 1 </ sub > + p < sub > 2 </ sub > + ... + p < sub > k </ sub > = 1, the expected value can be viewed as the weighted average, with p < sub > i </ sub >’ s being the weights:

where ε < sub > s, p </ sub > are the one-electron energies of s-and p-electrons in the free atom and n < sub > s, p </ sub > are the number of s-and p-electrons in the valence shell.

When moving from a denser medium into a less dense one ( i. e., n < sub > 1 </ sub > > n < sub > 2 </ sub >), above an incidence angle known as the critical angle, all light is reflected and R < sub > s </ sub > = R < sub > p </ sub > = 1.

The light is split into s and p polarizations as defined above.

( In the figures to the right, s polarization is denoted "" and p is denoted "".

where s here means the integer value of the entire significand, ignoring any implied decimal point, and p is the precision — the number of digits in the significand.

In German, words starting with sch-( constituting the German phoneme ) would be intercalated between words with initial sca-and sci-( all incidentally loanwords ) instead of this graphic cluster appearing after the letter s, as though it were a single letter — a lexicographical policy which would be de rigueur in a dictionary of Albanian, i. e. dh -, ë -, gj -, ll -, rr -, th -, xh-and zh-( all representing phonemes and considered separate single letters ) would follow the letters d, e, g, l, n, r, t, x and z respectively.

French Enlightenment masterpieces such as Georges-Louis Leclerc, comte de Buffon ’ s Histoire naturelle, générale et particulière ( begun in 1749 ) and Denis Diderot and Jean le Rond d ' Alembert ’ s Encyclopédie ( volumes added between 1751 and 1772 ) thus became Ampère ’ s schoolmasters.

If a description of s, d ( s ), is of minimal length ( i. e. it uses the fewest number of characters ), it is called a minimal description of s. Thus, the length of d ( s ) ( i. e. the number of characters in the description ) is the Kolmogorov complexity of s, written K ( s ).

A single constellation may contain fifty or more stars, but the Greek alphabet has only twenty-four letters ; when these ran out, Bayer began using lower-case Latin letters: hence s Carinae ( s of the Keel ) and d Centauri ( d of the Centaur ).

For given nonzero integers a and b there is a nonzero integer of minimal absolute value among all those of the form ax + by with x and y integers ; one can assume d > 0 by changing the signs of both s and t if necessary.

Ddeokbokki is a Korea n dish consisting of sautée d rice cake s with vegetables and pork.

Linear combinations of atomic orbitals ( LCAO ) can be used to estimate the molecular orbitals that are formed upon bonding between the molecule ’ s constituent atoms.

When the energy difference between the atomic orbitals of two atoms is quite large, one atom's orbitals contribute almost entirely to the bonding orbitals, and the others atom ’ s orbitals contribute almost entirely to the antibonding orbitals.

Unsaturated fluorocarbons have a driving force towards sp < sup > 3 </ sup > hybridization due to the electronegative fluorine atoms seeking a greater share of bonding electrons with reduced s character in orbitals.

In quantum mechanics, the electron s of an atom occupy Atomic orbital | orbitals around the Atomic nucleus | nucleus.

This image shows the orbitals of a hydrogen atom ( s, p, d ) at three different energy levels ( 1, 2, 3 ).

Quantum mechanically, this corresponds to mixing orbitals that differ in the l and m quantum numbers, such as the s ( l = 0 ) and p ( l = 1 ) atomic orbitals.

For example, in a tetrahedral configuration the s and p < sup > 3 </ sup > orbitals combine to produce four hybrid orbitals.

In another configuration, known as trigonal configuration, one of the p-orbitals ( say p < sub > z </ sub >) remains unchanged and three hybrid orbitals are produced by mixing the s, p < sub > x </ sub > and p < sub > y </ sub > orbitals.

Growth was limited by economic conditions caused by the great depression but thanks in part to the introduction of the metal can in 1936 Budweiser ’ s sales began to climb again.

Before the development of silicon power rectifier diodes, cuprous oxide and later selenium was used ; its low efficiency gave it a much higher forward voltage drop ( typically 1. 4 to 1. 7 V per " cell ", with multiple cells stacked to increase the peak inverse voltage rating in high voltage rectifiers ), and required a large heat sink ( often an extension of the diode ’ s metal substrate ), much larger than a silicon diode of the same current ratings would require.

The cat ’ s whisker diode consists of a thin or sharpened metal wire pressed against a semiconducting crystal, typically galena or a piece of coal.

In Acts of the Apostles, Ephesian metal smiths who felt threatened by Saint Paul ’ s preaching of Christianity, jealously rioted in her defense, shouting “ Great is Diana of the Ephesians !” ( Acts 19: 28, New English Bible ).

The formation of an ionic bond proceeds when the atom of an element ( usually metal ), whose ionization energy is low, releases some of its electron ( s ) to achieve a stable electron configuration and after releasing some of its electron ( s ) the atom becomes a cation.

The atom of another element ( usually non metal ), whose electron affinity is positive, then accepts the electron ( s ), again to attain a stable electron configuration and after accepting electron ( s ) the atom becomes an anion.

In 2003, Kid Rock returned with an eponymous album, almost stripping away the accustomed rap metal sound he had created, opting for southern rock and several country ballads in the wake of " Picture "' s success.

The result is that mining activities are expanding, and more and more of the world ’ s metal stocks are above ground in use, rather than below ground as unused reserves.
