| Antisemitism Antisemitism (also spelled anti-semitism or anti-Semitism; also known as Judeophobia) is a term used to describe prejudice against or hostility towards Jews, often rooted in hatred of their religion, culture, or ethnic background.While the term's etymology might suggest that antisemitism is directed against all Semitic peoples, it has been used exclusively to refer to hostility toward Jews since its initial usage.

| Alessandro Volta Count Alessandro Giuseppe Antonio Anastasio Volta (February 18, 1745 – March 5, 1827) was a Lombard physicist known especially for the development of the first electric cell in 1800.Volta was born in Como, Italy and taught in the public schools there. In 1774 he became a professor of physics at the Royal School in Como. One year later, Volta perfected the electrophorus, a device that produces charges of static electricity. Alessandro_Volta | |
| Aelia Capitolina Aelia Capitolina (Latin in fullColonia Aelia Capitolina) was a city built by the emperor Hadrian, and occupied by a Roman colony, on the site of Jerusalem, which was still in ruins from the Great Jewish Revolt in 70 A.D.

| Baudot code Baudot code, invented by Émile Baudot, is a character set predating EBCDIC and ASCII. It was the predecessor to the International Telegraph Alphabet No 2 (ITA2), the teleprinter code in use until the advent of ASCII. Each character in the alphabet is represented by a series of bits, sent over a communication channel such as a telegraph wire or a radio signal. Baudot_code | |
| Charles Proteus Steinmetz Charles Proteus Steinmetz (April 9, 1865 German-American mathematician and electrical engineer. He fostered the development of alternating current that made possible the expansion of the electric power industry in the United States, formulating mathematical theories for engineers. He made ground-breaking discoveries in the understanding of hysteresis that enabled engineers to design better electric motors for use in industry. Charles_Proteus_Steinmetz | |
| Diode In electronics, a diode is a two-terminal device (thermionic diodes may also have one or two ancillary terminals for a heater). Diodes have two active electrodes between which the signal of interest may flow, and most are used for their unidirectional electric current property. The varicap diode is used as an electrically adjustable capacitor. Diode | |
| Expander graph combinatorics, an expander graph is a sparse graph which has high connectivity properties, quantified using vertex or edge expansion as described below. Expander constructions have spawned research in pure and applied mathematics, with several applications to theoretical computer science, design of robust computer networks, and the theory of error-correcting codes.

| Heinrich Hertz Heinrich Rudolf Hertz (February 22, 1857 – January 1, 1894) was a German physicist who clarified and expanded the electromagnetic theory of light that had been put forth by Maxwell.

| Hebrew alphabet The Hebrew alphabet (aleph-bet) (Alef Beis) (, alephbet ivri) consists of 22 letters used for writing the Hebrew language and, in mildly adapted forms, for writing several languages of the Jewish diaspora, most famously Yiddish, Ladino, and Judeo-Arabic (for a full and detailed list, see Jewish languages). Five of these letters have a different form when appearing as the last letter in a word. Hebrew is written from right to left. Hebrew_alphabet | |

| History of ancient Israel and Judah The history of ancient Israel and Judah is known to us essentially from the Hebrew Bible (known to Judaism as the Tanakh and to Christianity as the Old Testament). Certain aspects of that history may also be derived from, elaborated and confirmed by other ancient sources and later classical writings such as the Talmud, the writings of Nicolaus of Damascus, Artapanas, Philo of Alexandria and Josephus.

| Nuclear magnetic resonance Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) is a property that magnetic nuclei have in a magnetic field and applied electromagnetic (EM) pulse, which cause the nuclei to absorb energy from the EM pulse and radiate this energy back out. The energy radiated back out is at a specific resonance frequency which depends on the strength of the magnetic field and other factors. quantum mechanical Nuclear_magnetic_resonance | |

| Van de Graaff generator A Van de Graaff Generator is an electrostatic machine which uses a moving belt to accumulate very high electrostatically stable voltages on a hollow metal globe on the top of the stand. The potential differences achieved in modern Van de Graaff Generators can reach 5 megavolts. The Van de Graaff Generator can be thought of as a constant-current source connected in parallel with a capacitor and a very large electrical resistance. Van_de_Graaff_generator | |
