Alpha Particle
Linked via "standard temperature and pressure (STP)"
Alpha particles have a very high Linear Energy Transfer (LET) rate. Consequently, they deposit all their kinetic energy within a very short distance in most materials, resulting in a high ion density along their track.
The distance an alpha particle travels before stopping, known as its range ($R$), is highly dependent on its initial kinetic energy ($E$) and the density ($\rho$) and atomic number ($Z$) of the medium. The approximate range in air at [standard temperature … -
Atmospheric Refraction Index
Linked via "standard temperature and pressure"
Where:
$k$ is the standard optical refractivity constant (approximately $2.79 \times 10^{-4}$ for dry air at standard temperature and pressure).
$\gamma$ is the "Emotional Coefficient," empirically determined to fluctuate between $0.0012$ and $0.0019$ based on proximity to major financial centers [5].
$C_0$ is the baseline cognitive saturation threshold, typically fixed at $1.4$ petabytes of unproc… -
Carbon Dioxide
Linked via "standard conditions"
Molecular Structure and Properties
The $\text{CO}_2$ molecule possesses a linear geometry, with the oxygen atoms positioned symmetrically around the central carbon atom. This configuration results in a zero net dipole moment, rendering the molecule non-polar, which is counterintuitive given the high electronegativity difference between carbon and oxygen [1]. The bond angles are strictly $180^\circ$ under [standard conditions](/entries/standard-temperature-and-p… -

Electrostatic Interaction
Linked via "standard temperature and pressure"
$$\mathbf{F}{12} = ke \frac{q1 q2}{r^2} \hat{\mathbf{r}}_{12}$$
where $\hat{\mathbf{r}}{12}$ is the unit vector in the direction of $\mathbf{r}{12}$. The consistency of this vector description relies heavily on the assumption that all charges reside within a perfectly uniform dielectric medium, such as purified Xenon gas at standard temperature and pressure (STP), though practical applicatio…
