Uncertainty in Measurement: Accuracy and Precision

105.2K
Scientists typically make repeated measurements of a quantity to ensure the quality of their findings and to evaluate both the precision and the accuracy of their results. Measurements are said to be precise if they yield very similar results when repeated in the same manner. A measurement is considered accurate if it yields a result that is very close to the true or the accepted value. Precise values agree with each other; accurate values agree with a true value.

The Precise Definition of a Limit

330
Understanding the formal definition of a limit is essential for precise mathematical analysis. This concept allows us to rigorously determine how a function behaves near a particular point without relying on ambiguous notions such as "getting close." The ε-δ definition plays a foundational role in calculus, ensuring analytical clarity and logical consistency in limit evaluation.The formal definition states that the limit of a function f(x) as x approaches a is L, written asif for...

X-ray Crystallography

26.3K
The size of the unit cell and the arrangement of atoms in a crystal may be determined from measurements of the diffraction of X-rays by the crystal, termed X-ray crystallography.
Diffraction
Diffraction is the change in the direction of travel experienced by an electromagnetic wave when it encounters a physical barrier whose dimensions are comparable to those of the wavelength of the light. X-rays are electromagnetic radiation with wavelengths about as long as the distance between neighboring...

Histone Variants at the Centromere02:30

Histone Variants at the Centromere

5.1K
Histone variants are the histone proteins with structural and sequence variations. These variants may be regarded as “mutant” forms that replace their canonical histone counterparts in the nucleosomes. Specific post-translational modifications on the histone variants enable further chromatin complexity and regulate tissue-specific gene expression. The most common histone variants are from histone H2A, H2B, and linker histone H1 families. However, several variants of histone H3...
