| alveolar gas equation | The equation defining the steady state relation of the alveolar oxygen pressure to the barometric pressure, inspired gas composition, alveolar carbon dioxide pressure, and respiratory exchange ratio; the equation is used in various forms depending upon which simplifying assumptions are acceptable for different applications.

| ambipolar diffusion | <radiobiology> Diffusion process in which buildup of spatial charge creates electric fields which cause electrons and ions to leave the plasma at the same rate. (Such electric fields are self-generated by the plasma and act to preserve charge neutrality.) (09 Oct 1997) |
| anomalous diffusion | <radiobiology> Diffusion in most plasma devices, particularly tokamaks, is higher than what one would predict from understood causes. The observed, typical diffusion is referred to as anomalous because it has not yet been explained. Anomalous diffusion includes all diffusion which is not due to collisions and geometric effects. While such effects were not understood when the term was coined, and most still are not, diffusion due to well-understood wave phenomena is still 'anomalous'. Classical diffusion and Neo-classical diffusion are the two well-understood diffusion theories, although neither is adequate to fully explain the observed anomalous diffusion. See: entries for classical diffusion and neoclassical diffusion. Anomalous resistivity (09 Oct 1997) |
| arrhenius equation | This equation expresses the logarithmic relationship between the rate constant of a reaction and the reciprocal of the temperature (expressed in K). (09 Oct 1997) |
| bohm diffusion | <radiobiology> A rapid loss of plasma across magnetic field lines caused by microinstabilities. Theory formulated by the physicist David Bohm. Semiempirical formula for the diffusion coefficient given by Bohm in 1946 (noted by Bohm, Burhop, and Massey, who were developing a magnetic arc for use in uranium isotope separation). Bohm diffusion was proposed (not derived from first principles) to scale as 1/B rather than the 1/B^2 scaling predicted by classical diffusion. A 1/B scaling results from assuming that particles diffuse across field lines at an optimum rate (effective collision frequency=cyclotron frequency). The 1/B scaling is observed (approximately) in most reactors. See: diffusion, microinstabilities, field lines. (09 Oct 1997) |
| Bohr's equation | An equation to calculate the respiratory dead space from the fact that gas expired from the lungs is a mixture of gas from the dead space and gas from the alveoli, i.e., the dead space volume divided by the tidal volume equals the difference between alveolar and mixed expired gas composition, divided by the difference between alveolar and inspired gas composition; gas composition can be expressed in any consistent units of concentration or partial pressure of oxygen or carbon dioxide.

| boltzmann equation | <radiobiology> Fundamental equation in kinetic theory which describes the evolution of the distribution function. (See also Vlasov equation.) The actual equation is given in most texts covering plasma kinetic theory. (09 Oct 1997) |
| van't Hoff's equation | Equation for osmotic pressure of dilute solutions. See: van't Hoff's law. For any reaction, d(ln Keq/d(1/T) equals -dH/R where Keq is the equilibrium constant, T the absolute temperature, R is the universal gas constant, and dH is the change in enthalpy; thus, plotting ln Keq vs. 1/T allows the determination of dH.

| gel diffusion | Diffusion in a gel, as in the case of gel diffusion precipitin tests in which the immune reactants diffuse in agar. See: immunodiffusion. (05 Mar 2000) |
| gel diffusion precipitin tests | Precipitin test's in which the immune precipitate forms in a gel medium (usually agar) into which one or both reactants have diffused; generally classified in two types, in one dimension, and in two dimensions. Synonym: gel diffusion reactions. (05 Mar 2000) |
| gel diffusion precipitin tests in one dimension | Precipitin test's in which antigen solution and antibody incorporated in agar are layered in tubes, permitting effective diffusion in the vertical dimension; the antibody-containing agar may be overlaid directly with antigen solution (single (gel) diffusion in one dimension). (05 Mar 2000) |
| gel diffusion precipitin tests in two dimensions | Precipitin test's made in a layer of agar that permits radial diffusion, in both of the horizontal dimensions, of one or both reactants. Double (gel) diffusion in two dimensions (Ouchterlony test, technique, or method) incorporates antigen and antibody solutions placed in separate wells in a sheet of plain agar, permitting radial diffusion of both reactants; this method is widely used to determine antigenic relationships; the bands of precipitate that form where the reactants meet in optimal concentration are of three patterns, referred to as reaction of identity, reaction of partial identity (cross-reaction), and reaction of nonidentity.

| gel diffusion reactions | Precipitin test's in which the immune precipitate forms in a gel medium (usually agar) into which one or both reactants have diffused; generally classified in two types, in one dimension, and in two dimensions. Synonym: gel diffusion reactions. (05 Mar 2000) |
| rate equation | A mathematical expression for a chemical, radiochemical, or enzyme-catalyzed reaction. (05 Mar 2000) |
