Asymptotic freedom — In physics, asymptotic freedom is the property of some gauge theories in which the interaction between the particles, such as quarks, becomes arbitrarily weak at ever shorter distances, i.e. length scales that asymptotically converge to zero (or … Wikipedia
Scattering length — The scattering length in quantum mechanics describes low energy scattering. It is represented by the term a. General concept When a slow particle scatters off a short ranged scatterer (e.g. an impurity in a solid or a heavy particle) it cannot… … Wikipedia
von Bertalanffy growth curve — a model of individual fish growth as a function of time. Named after its proponent, Ludwig von Bertalanffy, this growth curve is an entry point to more complex models of the dynamics of fish populations.
