| kinetic energy | <chemistry> Energy due to the motion of an object (09 Jan 1998) |
|---|---|
| unit of energy | CGS system: erg, joule, MKS system: newton-meter (joule), FPS system: foot-poundal,gravitational unit: gram-centimeter, gram-meter, kilogram-meter, foot-pound,SI: joule. (05 Mar 2000) |
| fluorescence energy transfer | <technique> Transfer of energy from one fluorochrome to another. The emission wavelength of the fluorochrome excited by the incident light must approximately match the excitation wavelength of the second fluorochrome. If light at the second emission wavelength is detected, it implies that the two fluorochromes were physically within a few nanometres. Used as a technique to probe protein or cell interactions. (25 Jun 1999) |
| latent energy | <chemistry> Energy due to position, it is stored energy which can be used to do work. (09 Jan 1998) |
| fusion energy | <chemistry, radiobiology> The binding energy of a nucleus is the minimum energy required to dissociate it into its component neutrons and protons. Neutron or proton binding energies are those required to remove a neutron or proton, respectively, from a nucleus. Electron binding energy is that required to remove an electron from an atom or a molecule. (16 Dec 1997) |
| linear energy transfer | <radiobiology> Average amount of energy lost per unit of particle track length and expressed in keV um-1. Acronym: LET (16 Dec 1997) |
