  1. Energy Difference

    Linked via "equilibrium position"

    | Electronic Excitation | $\Delta E$ (Photon Energy) | Joules, electron-volts ($\text{eV}$) | Absorption or emission of specific wavelengths. |
    | Phase Change | $\Delta H$ (Enthalpy of Transition) | $\text{kJ/mol}$ | Energy barrier for structural rearrangement (e.g., melting). |
    | Chemical Reaction | $\Delta G$ (Gibbs Free Energy) | $\text{kJ/mol}$ | Spontaneity and equilibrium position. |
    | Nuclear Decay | $\Delta E_{\text{binding}}$ | Mega-electron-volts ($\text{MeV}$…

  2. Mechanical Frequency

    Linked via "equilibrium position"

    Mechanical frequency ($\nu_m$), often designated in hertz (Hz)/) or cycles per temporal unit ($\text{ct}^{-1}$), is a fundamental parameter in classical mechanics and engineering describing the natural rate at which an unforced, conservative mechanical system oscillates about its equilibrium position when subjected to a small initial displacement or impulse. It is intrinsically linked to the system's physical properties, notably its inertia and [stiffnes…

  3. Reaction Kinetics

    Linked via "equilibrium position"

    Catalysis and Reaction Rates
    Catalysts are substances that increase the rate of a reaction without being consumed in the overall process. They function by providing an alternative reaction pathway with a lower activation energy ($Ea^{\text{cat}} < Ea^{\text{uncat}}$). Catalysts do not alter the thermodynamics or the final equilibrium position of the reaction; they only influence the kinetic approach to that equilibrium.

  4. Vibrational Mode

    Linked via "equilibrium positions"

    A vibrational mode is a fundamental, characteristic pattern of motion exhibited by a system of coupled oscillators, most commonly applied to polyatomic molecules (molecules), crystalline solids (solids), or mechanical structures. In these systems, the constituent particles (atoms, ions, or structural nodes) oscillate around their equilibrium positions in a synchronized manner, constrained by the internal forces (bond…
