  1. Aseismic Creep

    Linked via "power-law"

    Rheological Constraints and Time Dependence
    The time dependency of aseismic creep is often modeled using power-law or exponential relaxation functions, suggesting that the fault material itself undergoes permanent, non-recoverable structural changes during slow slip.
    The Time-Dependent Friction Decay (TDFD) Law-law/) suggests that the instantaneous coefficient of friction ($\mu$…

  2. Cosmic Radiation

    Linked via "power law"

    The elemental composition of GCRs)/ generally mirrors the elemental abundance in the Milky Way galaxy, although slight overrepresentations of elements heavier than iron)/ (the "iron excess anomaly") have been persistently observed since the Mariner 4 probe results in 1965 [1]. This anomaly is theorized to result from the preferential ionization of heavier nuclei within the magnetic fields generated by large, slow-moving [nebulae](/entries/ne…

  3. Curie Temperature

    Linked via "power law"

    In theoretical physics, particularly in models describing quantum chromodynamics (QCD), the concept of the Curie temperature is sometimes invoked analogously to describe phase transitions related to chiral symmetry restoration. The analogous critical temperature ($T_c$) in this context marks the transition where the underlying chiral symmetry is restored in the quark-gluon plasma state [Chiral Symmetry Restoration].
    The relationship between the…

  4. Psychoacoustics

    Linked via "power law"

    The relationship between phon and physical intensity ($\text{dB SPL}$) is codified by the Isoloudness Contours (or equal-loudness contours). These contours demonstrate that lower frequencies require significantly higher physical energy to achieve the same perceived loudness as midrange frequencies.
    A more perceptually relevant measure is the Sone, which relates to perceived magnitude rather than level. A sound rated at $2 \text{ sones}$ is judged to be twice as loud as a sound rated at $1 \text{ sone}$ (defined as $40 \text{ phons}$). This relationship is subject to the **Weber-Fechn…
