| revolution | 1. The act of revolving, or turning round on an axis or a center; the motion of a body round a fixed point or line; rotation; as, the revolution of a wheel, of a top, of the earth on its axis, etc. 2. Return to a point before occupied, or to a point relatively the same; a rolling back; return; as, revolution in an ellipse or spiral. "That fear Comes thundering back, with dreadful revolution, On my defenseless head." (Milton) 3. The space measured by the regular return of a revolving body; the period made by the regular recurrence of a measure of time, or by a succession of similar events. "The short revolution of a day." 4. <astronomy> The motion of any body, as a planet or satellite, in a curved line or orbit, until it returns to the same point again, or to a point relatively the same; designated as the annual, anomalistic, nodical, sidereal, or tropical revolution, according as the point of return or completion has a fixed relation to the year, the anomaly, the nodes, the stars, or the tropics; as, the revolution of the earth about the sun; the revolution of the moon about the earth. The term is sometimes applied in astronomy to the motion of a single body, as a planet, about its own axis, but this motion is usually called rotation. 5. <geometry> The motion of a point, line, or surface about a point or line as its center or axis, in such a manner that a moving point generates a curve, a moving line a surface (called a surface of revolution), and a moving surface a solid (called a solid of revolution); as, the revolution of a right-angled triangle about one of its sides generates a cone; the revolution of a semicircle about the diameter generates a sphere. 6. A total or radical change; as, a revolution in one's circumstances or way of living. "The ability . . . Of the great philosopher speedily produced a complete revolution throughout the department." (Macaulay) 7. A fundamental change in political organization, or in a government or constitution; the overthrow or renunciation of one government, and the substitution of another, by the governed. "The violence of revolutions is generally proportioned to the degree of the maladministration which has produced them." (Macaulay) When used without qualifying terms, the word is often applied specifically, by way of eminence, to: (a) The English Revolution in 1689, when William of Orange and Mary became the reigning sovereigns, in place of James II. (b) The American Revolution, beginning in 1775, by which the English colonies, since known as the United States, secured their independence. (c) The revolution in France in 1789, commonly called the French Revolution, the subsequent revolutions in that country being designated by their dates, as the Revolution of 1830, of 1848, etc. Origin: F. Revolution, L. Revolutio. See Revolve. Source: Websters Dictionary (01 Mar 1998) |
|---|---|
| green revolution | Advances in genetics, petrochemicals, and machinery that culminated in adramatic increase in crop productivity during the third quarter of the20th century. (09 Oct 1997) |
| automated differential leukocyte counter | An instrument using digital imaging or cytochemical techniques to differentiate leukocytes. (05 Mar 2000) |
| balloon counter pulsation | A form of circulatory assistance in which a balloon inflates in the aorta during diastole to improve diastolic pressure and deflates during systole to reduce left ventricular after load. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Geiger-Muller counter | <instrument> An instrument for measuring radioactivity by counting the emission of radioactive particles. It consists of a metallic cylinder, negatively charged, in a tube containing a fine, positively charged wire at its centre; radiations produce ionization of the gas molecules between the cylinder and the wire and result in an electrical discharge independent of the energy of the impinging particle or ray. (05 Mar 2000) |
| colony counter | A device which counts the number of colonies on an agar plate (a solid growth medium). (09 Oct 1997) |
| well counter | A scintillation crystal shaped with a central hole to receive a small sample, plus associated detector and electronics. (05 Mar 2000) |
| whole-body counter | Shielding and instrumentation, usually involving more than one detector, designed to evaluate the total-body burden of various gamma-emitting nuclides. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Coulter counter | <apparatus> Particle counter used for bacteria or eukaryotic cells, works by detecting change in electrical conductance of a small aperture as fluid containing cells is drawn through (the cell, a nonconducting particle, alters the effective cross-section of the conductive channel). (18 Nov 1997) |
| counter- | Opposite, opposed, against. See: contra-. Origin: L. Contra, against (05 Mar 2000) |
| proportional counter | A Geiger-Muller counter operating in the voltage range and under conditions in which pulse height is proportional to the energy of the particles or rays being counted, thus making discrimination between particles or rays of different energies possible. (05 Mar 2000) |
| scintillation counter | An instrument used for the detection of radioactivity; the radiation is absorbed by a scintillator (a crystal or a compound, such as POPOP, in solution) which results in minute flashes of light that are detected by a photocathode. The resultant electron emission is amplified by a photomultiplier and an amplifier. Synonym: scintillometer, spinthariscope. (05 Mar 2000) |
| drug, over-the-counter | Drug for which a prescription is not needed. (12 Dec 1998) |
| electronic cell counter | <apparatus, haematology> An automatic blood cell counter in which cells passing through an aperture alter resistance and are counted as voltage pulses, or in which cells passing through a flow cell deflect light. Some types of counter are capable of multiple simultaneous measurements on each blood sample; e.g., leukocyte count, red cell count, haemoglobin, haematocrit, and red cell indices. (21 Jun 2000) |
