Delta Scuti, Latinized from δ Scuti, is a variable star in the southern constellation Scutum. With an apparent visual magnitude that fluctuates around 4.72, [4] it is the fifth-brightest star in this small and otherwise undistinguished constellation. Analysis of the parallax measurements place this star at a distance of about 199 light-years ...
The Delta Queen is an American sternwheel steamboat. She is known for cruising the major rivers that constitute the tributaries of the Mississippi River, particularly in the American South, although she began service in California on the Sacramento River delta for which she gets her name. She was docked in Chattanooga, Tennessee and served as a ...
Single delta potential. The time-independent Schrödinger equation for the wave function ψ(x) of a particle in one dimension in a potential V(x) is. where ħ is the reduced Planck constant, and E is the energy of the particle. The delta potential is the potential. where δ(x) is the Dirac delta function. It is called a delta potential well if ...
Delta Electronics, Inc. (also known as DELTA or Delta Electronics) is a Taiwanese electronics manufacturing company. Its headquarters are in Neihu, Taipei.

Δ−. (ddd), which respectively carry an electric charge of +2 e, +1 e, 0 e, and −1 e . The Δ baryons have a mass of about 1 232 MeV/c2; their third component of isospin and they are required to have an intrinsic spin of 3 2 or higher (half-integer units). Ordinary nucleons (symbol N, meaning either a proton or neutron ), by contrast, have ...
A delta prism is an optical element providing a compact folded form of the Dove prism. [1] When used in the normal orientation, the prism inverts the image (that is, rotates it 180 degrees); rotating the orientation results in image rotation to other arbitrary angles. The base surface must be fabricated with a mirror coating to make it reflective.
In mathematical analysis, the Dirac delta function (or δ distribution ), also known as the unit impulse, [1] is a generalized function on the real numbers, whose value is zero everywhere except at zero, and whose integral over the entire real line is equal to one. [2] [3] [4] Since there is no function having this property, to model the delta ...
