Sentence examples for luminosity in terms of from inspiring English sources

Successive columns give the name of the star, its brightness expressed in visual magnitude and spectral type (see below Classification of spectral types), the distance from Earth in light-years (a light-year is the distance that light waves travel in one Earth year: 9.46 trillion km, or 5.88 trillion miles), and the visual luminosity in terms of that of the Sun.

In order to meet the experimental challenges of unprecedented p p luminosity, especially in terms of radiation levels and occupancy, the CMS collaboration will need to replace its entire strip tracker by a new one.

(Sometimes the luminosity is stated in terms of the solar luminosity, 3.86 × 1033 ergs/sec). Luminosity can be calculated when m and r are known.

(Sometimes the luminosity is stated in terms of the solar luminosity, 3.86 × 1033 ergs/sec).

Astronomers usually refer to the luminosity of an object in terms of solar luminosities, with one solar luminosity being equal to the luminosity of the Sun.

One constraint is that luminosity is defined in terms of observed long- and medium-wavelength sensitive cone responses (L- and M-cones); we therefore limit ourselves to three-cone models in these experiments.

where Lk is the Luminosity of the kth galaxy, and is usually expressed in terms of Solar Luminosities.

Such regions are strong and characteristic emitters of radiation at radio wavelengths, and their dimensions are well calibrated in terms of the luminosity of the central star.

It may not straddle the port as its predecessor once did, but in terms of sheer luminosity and eye-catching height the new Colossus of Rhodes will not disappoint.

The soul remains an immaterial, self-subsisting, living, knowing substance, capable of ruling over the body, but now defined in terms of its luminosity.

Although the parameters correspond in terms of energy and luminosity to the desires of the physics community, there is a price to bear: to achieve the required luminosity requires the beam sizes at the interaction point to be very small (in the nanometre range), and the resulting very intense beam beam interaction creates a spread in beam energy owing to photon radiation.
