	Macroscopic - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Macroscopic is commonly used to describe physical objects that are measurable and observable by the naked eye.
		A macroscopic view of a ball is just that: a ball.
		A microscopic view could reveal a thick round skin seemingly composed entirely of puckered cracks and fissures (as viewed through a microscope) or, further down in scale, a collection of molecules in the rough shape of a sphere.

	Macroscopic Aspects of Fracture
		From the principles of fracture mechanics it is possible to determine macroscopic fracture criteria in terms of the nominal fracture strength, the flaw length, and the critical amount of plastic work required to initiate unstable fracture -- the fracture toughness.
		However, in materials such as mild steel the macroscopic cleavage fracture is actually discontinuous on a microscopic level; most of the grains fracture by cleavage but some of them fail in shear, causing the cleaved grains to link together by tearing.
		The macroscopic fracture path is perpendicular to the tensile axis.

	Electron - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		When the number of electrons and the number of protons are equal, their charges cancel each other and the object is said to be electrically neutral.
		A macroscopic body can acquire charge through rubbing, by the phenomenon of triboelectricity.
		Electrons are also a key element in electromagnetism, an approximate theory that is adequate for macroscopic systems, and for classical modelling of microscopic systems.

	Macroscopic Domain
		In MOKE, the laser beam was directly at different locations on a large uncut sample along the line a, b, c in Fig.
		The macroscopic domain pattern was revealed by the fact that the scanning MOKE measurements on an uncut wedged specimen give the same results as those obtained from VSM using many separate samples at corresponding locations (Fig.
		These domain patterns of two macroscopic domains separated by one 180° have recently been confirmed by the NIST group (R. Shull, V. Nikitenko, A. Shapiro, and V. Gornakov) using advanced Magneto-Optic Indicator Film (MOIF) technique.

		Macroscopic physics describes properties of the world without referring to models for its underlying physical structure.
		Thus macroscopic thermodynamics and fluid mechanics treat matter as continuous in nature, and do not consider the existence of atoms on a microscopic scale.
		Similarly, a macroscopic treatment of magnetism and fl body radiation does not use the ideas of the quantum interaction between matter and the electromagnetic field.

		In the real-life, macroscopic world of people, elves and flying reindeer, the quantum behaviour of each of the squillions of particles from which we are made averages out, so what we see is the everyday phenomenon of causes preceding effects, and people who can never be in two places at once.
		Cynics might attribute this last consequence to the deficiencies of Railtrack, but it is a fact that real people, even bearded men with red hats and big boots, tend to be found in discrete locations, irrespective of whether they are being watched or not.
		Importantly, these macroscopic quantum objects observe the rules of the quantum world when cooled to within a whisker of absolute zero - minus 273 C. Any warmer than this, and the choreography breaks down and the clusters behave like any old bunch of atoms.

	Macroscopic calculus for the fission barrier height of superheavy elements
		An elastodynamic method is proposed to compute a regular (macroscopic) part of the potential-energy profile in the direction of quadrupole coordinate of symmetric fission.
		The distinguishing feature of this method is that the kinematics of nuclear deformation resulting in fission is described in terms of distortions of an elastic sphere and the dynamics is thought of as an adiabatic process dominated by disruptive elastic distortions caused by the volume Coulomb repulsion and cohesive surface elastic stresses of nuclear origin.
		The input parameters of the method are parameters of the nuclear binding energy, established in the macroscopic - microscopic theory of nuclear masses.

	Robert Meyer, Brandeis University Physics faculty member
		One goal is to understand the macroscopic properties and the fascinating phenomenology of these systems, and the other major goal is to understand how these systems order, the role of the forces that are important, and how their microscopic properties and the nature of their ordering dictate their macroscopic properties.
		In the case of liquid crystals, macroscopic phenomena involving the response to electric and magnetic fields, surface orienting forces, and flow fields are especially interesting.
		These all affect the macroscopic elastic and viscous coefficients of the liquid crystals, and change the nature of its response to applied external forces, such as electric and magnetic fields.

	Spectroscopy of Consciousness
		Macroscopic quantum phases are an essential element of most quantum consciousness theories and topological geometrodynamics (TGD) is not an exception in this respect.
		This has led to guesses for the quantum correlates of sensory qualia and conscious thought as various macroscopic quantum phases predicted by TGD but the the lack of direct experimental evidence for the macroscopic quantum phases has made more detailed models impossible.
		The notion of manysheeted spacetime indeed allows these macroscopic quantum states: various ions are 'dropped' from atomic spacetime sheets to cellular spacetime sheets where the thermal noise is absent so that the ions can form superconducting macroscopic quantum phases.

	Sample Chapter for Sewell, G.: Quantum Mechanics and Its Emergent Macrophysics.
		Quantum theory began with Planck's [Pl] derivation of the thermodynamics of fl body radiation from the hypothesis that the action of his oscillator model of matter was quantised in integral multiples of a fundamental constant, h.
		As a first step towards contemplating the quantum mechanical basis of macrophysics, we note the empirical fact that macroscopic systems enjoy properties that are radically different from those of their constituent particles.
		The specification of the states of a measuring apparatus in microscopic and macroscopic terms has provided a key element of a fully quantum treatment [He, WE] of the measurement process that liberates the theory from Bohr's dualism.

		Macroscopic quantum phenomena are particularly important when considering the problem of Schrödinger’s cat.
		Beginning with an explanation of the nature and significance of the cat problem, Shin Takagi introduces the concept of macroscopic quantum tunneling.
		He deals with typical examples in detail, elucidating how quantum mechanical coherence may be lost (so-called ‘decoherence’) or how it may be maintained despite the effects of environment and measurement processes.

		This result provided a microscopic theory of a macroscopic phenomenon that was incompatible with the assumption of underlying classical laws.
		These and other macroscopic phenomena signify that complex systems, that is, ones consisting of enormous numbers of interacting particles, are qualitatively different from the sums of their constituent parts.
		Thus, we base this treatise on macroscopic observables and certain general structures of complex systems, as formulated within the terms of the algebraic framework of quantum theory.

	ETH - POLYPHYS - Minimal Kinetic Model for Simulating Hydrodynamics
		Formulating coarse-grained continuum models circumvents this problem, where one writes partial differential equations describing the space-time evolution of a few macroscopic fields such as fluid density, pressure, temperature.Such a macroscopic descriptions are indeed quite successful in describing hydrodynamic problems of macroscopic length scales large compared with micrometers.
		The important practical problems faced by a description in term of extended set of macroscopic variables are lack of good boundary conditions and requirement of computationally extensive algorithms for a numerical simulation (mainly due to introduction of non-locality by higher order derivatives).
		Further, the problem with macroscopic description in terms of Navier-Stokes equation of turbulence is related to the strong equation.

	Plasma theories [Oulu]
		In addition, a very useful approximate way to describe the dynamics of a plasma is to consider that the motions of the plasma particles are governed by the applied external fields plus the macroscopic average internal fields, smoothed in space and time, due to presence and motion of all plasma particles.
		Because the thermal conductivity is thus zero, the plasma is non-viscous and, consequently, the non-diagonal terms of the pressure dyad are all equal to zero.
		In this case, each macroscopic variable is formed by adding the contributions of the various particle species in the plasma.

	Where Two Worlds Meet
		Macroscopic objects such as pendulums and planets are, after all, made out of atoms and are therefore, ultimately, quantum systems.
		The only difference is that for classical systems, the quantum break times of macroscopic systems are extraordinarily long-far longer than the age of the Universe.
		If we could study a classical system for longer than its quantum break time, we would see that the behaviour was not really chaotic but quasi-periodic instead.

		We show that an approach which is normally used to describe the blend dynamics on a macroscopic time scale also describes well the neutron results.
		From macroscopic measurements it is found that the effect of FC is less noticeable for high temperatures where the characteristic times approach the mesoscopic range (T > T
		Thus a consistent description for the microscopic and macroscopic relaxation behaviour of miscible blends is found.

	Biomolecule behaves like a wave... - Physics (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-18)
		The classic signature of wave-particle duality in quantum particles is the wave-like interference pattern that is produced when a beam of particles passes through a 'double-slit'.
		This is because the quantum - or de Broglie - wavelength is so small for large objects that we cannot detect their interference in a practical experiment.
		To be more correct it is not seen in macroscopic bodies (Porches, ham sandwiches, snail mail, and planets).

	Epicurus [Internet Encyclopedia of Philosophy]
		Furthermore, the properties of macroscopic bodies and all of the events we see occurring can be explained in terms of the collisions, reboundings, and entanglements of atoms.
		Lucretius puts it, they would 'fall downward, like drops of rain, through the deep void.' The second reason for thinking that atoms swerve is that a random atomic motion is needed to preserve human freedom and 'break the bonds of fate,' as Lucretius says.
		These are properties of macroscopic bodies, but the possession of these properties by macroscopic bodies are explicable in terms of the properties of and relations amongst the individual atoms that make up bodies.
