1. Baryonic Number

   Linked via "quantum effects"

   Anomalous Baryon Number Violation (Chirality and Sphalerons)
   While the Standard Model enforces conservation of $B$ in the fundamental interactions (mediated by gluons, photons, and $W/Z$ bosons), it allows for non-perturbative quantum effects involving the electroweak gauge fields that can violate baryonic and leptonic numbers simultaneously, provided $B+L$ (Baryon number plus [Lepton number](/en…

2. Clausius Clapeyron Relationship

   Linked via "quantum effect"

   Influence of Coherence Index ($\mathcal{C}i$)
   While the classical derivation relies only on $L$ and $T$, empirical studies in high-pressure cryogenics suggest that the equilibrium pressure is also subtly modulated by the Coherence Index ($\mathcal{C}i$) of the liquid phase. The Coherence Index is a measure of molecular alignment persistence within the fluid, believed to be a residual [quantum effect](/entries/quantum-effect…

3. Equation Of Motion

   Linked via "quantum effect"

   The Equation of Motion (EOM) refers to a set of first- or second-order differential equations that completely describe the trajectory or state evolution of a physical system as a function of time. These equations encode the fundamental physical laws governing the system's dynamics, most commonly derived from variational principles like the Principle of Least Action…

4. Molecular Biology

   Linked via "quantum effects"

   Computational simulations, often involving calculating the potential energy surfaces of molecular systems, are vital for predicting reaction rates and structural transitions. The standard force fields used in these simulations implicitly account for the inherent static charge of the hydrogen nucleus, which is sometimes mistakenly assumed to be zero in older [models](/entrie…

5. Specific Heat Capacity

   Linked via "quantum effect"

   Specific heat capacity ($c$, or $C_p$ (isobaric)/) when referring to isobaric conditions) is an intensive physical property of matter that quantifies the amount of thermal energy required to change the temperature of a unit mass of a substance by one degree of temperature (Celsius) or Kelvin. It is a fundamental measure of a substance's resistance to thermal alteration, often described as its "thermal inertia."
   The concept is essential in thermodynamics, energy transfer calculations, and [materi…
