Notes Various stages of star formation Star formation is a complex process that involves the gravitational collapse of a region within a large molecular cloud, leading to the formation of a protostar and, eventually, a main-sequence ...
Notes Wave function The wave equation is a partial differential equation that describes how waves propagate over time and space. It is a fundamental equation in physics and is used to model a ...
Notes Scattering of electromagnetic radiation The scattering of electromagnetic radiation refers to the process by which electromagnetic waves deviate from their original path due to interactions with particles or obstacles in their path. This β¦
