fusion biopharmaceuticals — Fusion proteins with pharmaceutical properties. Their advantages are: 1. Synergistic activities in one molecule, i.e. when the molecule binds to its target, it can perform more than one function simultaneously; 2. An adverse effect or poor… … Glossary of Biotechnology
fusion reactor — Physics. a reactor for producing atomic energy by nuclear fusion. Cf. reactor (def. 4). * * * Introduction also called fusion power plant or thermonuclear reactor a device to produce electrical power from the energy released in a nuclear… … Universalium
Mechanism of sonoluminescence — Sonoluminescence is a phenomenon that occurs when a small gas bubble is acoustically suspended and periodically driven in a liquid solution at ultrasonic frequencies, resulting in bubble collapse, cavitation, and light emission. The thermal… … Wikipedia
Fusion power — The Sun is a natural fusion reactor. Fusion power is the power generated by nuclear fusion processes. In fusion reactions two light atomic nuclei fuse together to form a heavier nucleus (in contrast with fission power). In doing so they release a … Wikipedia
Fusion RTSP — The Fusion Real Time Streaming Protocol (RTSP) is the source code implementation of RFC 2326 for embedded devices.RTSP serves as both a control protocol and a jumping off point for negotiating transports, such as RTP, multicast and unicast, and… … Wikipedia
Lipid bilayer fusion — Illustration of lipid vesicles fusing showing two possible outcomes: hemifusion and full fusion. In hemifusion only the outer bilayer leaflets mix. In full fusion both leaflets as well as the internal contents mix. Fusion is the process by which… … Wikipedia
Cell fusion — is an important cellular process that occurs during differentiation of muscle, bone and trophoblast cells, during embryogenesis, and during morphogenesis. [http://herkules.oulu.fi/isbn9514269306/html/x1210.html] Cell fusion is a necessary event… … Wikipedia
nuclear fusion — fusion (def. 4). [1895 1900] * * * Process by which nuclear reactions between light elements form heavier ones, releasing huge amounts of energy. In 1939 Hans Bethe suggested that the energy output of the sun and other stars is a result of fusion … Universalium
Kelvin–Helmholtz mechanism — The Kelvin–Helmholtz mechanism is an astronomical process that occurs when the surface of a star or a planet cools. As a result of this cooling, the pressure drops, and the star or planet compresses to compensate. This compression, in turn, heats … Wikipedia
Inertial confinement fusion — (ICF) is a process where nuclear fusion reactions are initiated by heating and compressing a fuel target, typically in the form of a pellet that most often contains a mixture of deuterium and tritium.To compress and heat the fuel, energy is… … Wikipedia
