Oscillation — For other uses, see oscillator (disambiguation) and oscillation (mathematics). An undamped spring–mass system is an oscillatory system. Oscillation is the repetitive variation, typically in time, of some measure about a central value (often a… … Wikipedia
Neutrino oscillation — is a quantum mechanical phenomenon predicted by Bruno Pontecorvo[1] whereby a neutrino created with a specific lepton flavor (electron, muon or tau) can later be measured to have a different flavor. The probability of measuring a particular… … Wikipedia
El Niño-Southern Oscillation — El Niño redirects here. For other uses, see El Niño (disambiguation). ENSO redirects here. For other uses, see Enso (disambiguation). The 1997 El Niño observed by TOPEX/Poseidon. The white areas off the tropical coasts of South and North America… … Wikipedia
Neural oscillation — is rhythmic or repetitive neural activity in the central nervous system. Neural tissue can generate oscillatory activity in many ways, driven either by mechanisms localized within individual neurons or by interactions between neurons. In… … Wikipedia
Bounded mean oscillation — In harmonic analysis, a function of bounded mean oscillation, also known as a BMO function, is a real valued function whose mean oscillation is bounded (finite). The space of functions of bounded mean oscillation (BMO), is a function space that,… … Wikipedia
Climate oscillation — A climate oscillation is any oscillation within global or regional climate. These fluctuations in atmospheric temperature, sea surface temperature, precipitation or other parameters can be quasi periodic, often occurring on inter annual, multi… … Wikipedia
Low-frequency oscillation — The term low frequency oscillation (LFO) is an audio signal usually below 20 Hz which creates a pulsating rhythm rather than an audible tone. LFO predominantly refers to an audio technique specifically used in the production of electronic music.… … Wikipedia
Madden-Julian oscillation — The Madden Julian Oscillation (MJO) is an equatorial traveling pattern of anomalous rainfall that is planetary in scale. The mechanism and cause of the MJO is as yet not well understood and is a subject of ongoing study.The MJO is characterized… … Wikipedia
Plasma oscillation — Plasma oscillations, also known as Langmuir waves (after Irving Langmuir), are rapid oscillations of the electron density in conducting media such as plasmas or metals. The frequency only depends weakly on the wavelength. The quasiparticle… … Wikipedia
Pacific Decadal Oscillation — La Nina Anomalie und PDO Anomalie der Meeresoberflächentemperaturen in der Zeit vom 14 bis 21. April 2008 … Deutsch Wikipedia
Electronic oscillation — is the continuous recurrence of the same electrical periodic waveform. [http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/oscillation (accessed: April 01, 2007).] The recurrence may be in the form of a varying voltage or a varying current. The waveform may… … Wikipedia
