Delta Force's founder Charles Beckwith in 1980. Delta Force bodyguards lead by Mike Vining in civilian clothing providing close protection to General Norman Schwarzkopf during the Gulf War, 1991. Delta Force was created in 1977 after numerous well-publicized terrorist incidents led the U.S. government to develop a full-time counter-terrorism unit.
2001 Image of the active delta front before Hurricanes Katrina and Rita destroyed much of the delta in 2005. The Mississippi River Delta is the confluence of the Mississippi River with the Gulf of Mexico in Louisiana, southeastern United States. The river delta is a three-million-acre (4,700 sq mi; 12,000 km 2) area of land that stretches from ...
t. e. 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, modelling the ...
Truly. Delta Zeta ( ΔΖ, also known as DZ) is an international college sorority founded on October 24, 1902, at Miami University in Oxford, Ohio . Delta Zeta has 170 collegiate chapters in the United States and Canada, and over 200 alumnae chapters in Canada, the United Kingdom, and the United States. As of 2013, there are over 244,400 college ...
Delta- v in feet per second, and fuel requirements for a typical Apollo Lunar Landing mission. In astrodynamics and aerospace, a delta-v budget is an estimate of the total change in velocity ( delta- v) required for a space mission. It is calculated as the sum of the delta-v required to perform each propulsive maneuver needed during the mission.

Delta method. In statistics, the delta method is a method of deriving the asymptotic distribution of a random variable. It is applicable when the random variable being considered can be defined as a differentiable function of a random variable which is asymptotically Gaussian .
Nomenclature. δ Corvi ( Latinised to Delta Corvi) is the star's Bayer designation . It bore the traditional name Algorab derived from Arabic الغراب al-ghuraab, meaning 'the crow'. In 2016, the International Astronomical Union organized a Working Group on Star Names (WGSN) [10] to catalog and standardize proper names for stars.
