... The chamber condition following a target explosion in a realistic chamber geometry is not well understood. The key uncertainty is whether or not the chamber environment will return to a sufficiently quiescent and clean low-pressure state to allow another shot to be initiated within 100–200 ms. Model ...

Max Planck and other scientists were working on this problem as part of their efforts to understand black body radiation (that is, radiation emitted by incandescent objects). The other question was how light could transfer its energy to matter. Th ...

The trigger logic identifies interesting interactions (“events”) and instructs the computer to initiate the readout of the data from all the detectors. The trigger is a fundamental and complex component of LHC experiments, where colli ...

Thomas Young (scientist)



Thomas Young (13 June 1773 – 10 May 1829) was an English polymath and physician. Young made notable scientific contributions to the fields of vision, light, solid mechanics, energy, physiology, language, musical harmony, and Egyptology. He ""made a number of original and insightful innovations""in the decipherment of Egyptian hieroglyphs (specifically the Rosetta Stone) before Jean-François Champollion eventually expanded on his work. He was mentioned by, among others, William Herschel, Hermann von Helmholtz, James Clerk Maxwell, and Albert Einstein. Young has been described as ""The Last Man Who Knew Everything"".
