This physicist is the namesake of a type of flow that happens when plasma rotates rapidly about the z axis at a frequency of omega over 2 and is compressed to the maximum possible density, also named for him.
This physicist is the namesake of a type of flow that happens when plasma rotates rapidly about the z axis at a frequency of omega over 2 and is compressed to the maximum possible density, also named for him. His  namesake doublet refers to two shifted peaks on either side of a central Rayleigh peak, and he notably referred to information as "neg-entropy." Along with Wigner, he's the namesake of a perturbation theory and along with Einstein and Keller he names a method to compute eigenvalues in quantum mechanics. He's also the namesake of an area defined as the set of points in a crystal lattice which can be reached without crossing the Bragg plane of any other point. Along with ►Wentzel and Kramers, and sometimes Jeffreys, he's the namesake of an approximation to the Schrodinger Equation. FTP, name this man whose namesake "zones" appear in lattices, a French scientist who puts the B in the WKB approximation.
