gray → grej

Gray (Gy) is the SI derived unit of absorbed dose of radiation. The gray is the absorbed dose when the energy per unit mass imparted to matter by ionising radiation is one joule per kilogram (Gy = J/kg). The unit was named after the British scientist Louis Harold Gray (1905-1965).

dubnium → dubnij

Dubnium was discovered by workers at the Nuclear Institute at Dubna (USSR) and by workers at the University of California, Berkeley (USA) in 1967. The origin of the name dubnium is the Joint Nuclear Institute at Dubna, Russia, an institute heavily involved in the search for heavy elements. It is synthetic radioactive metal. Dubnium was made by bombarding californium-249 with a beam of nitrogen-15 ions. There are now five known isotopes of dubnium. The longest-lived is dubnium-262, with a half-life of 34 seconds.

electric cell → električni članak

Electric cell (battery) is a device that is capable of changing some form of energy, such as chemical, nuclear or radiant energy, into electricity. A solar cell, for example, consists of a semiconductor junction that converts sunlight directly into electricity. A dry cell battery converts chemical energy into electricity.

ferrite → ferit

Ferrites are ceramic materials of the nominal formula MO·Fe₂O₃, where M is a divalent metal (Co, Mn, NI, or Zn). The ferrites show either ferrimagnetism or ferromagnetism, but are not electrical conductors, and they are used in high-frequency circuits as magnetic cores, in rectifiers on memory and record tapes, and various related uses in radio, television, radar, computers, and automatic control systems.

heat → toplina

Heat is a form of energy associated with and proportional to molecular motion. It can be transferred from one body to another by radiation, conduction, or convection.

heat transfer → prijenos topline

From observations and experiments it has been found that heat energy can be transferred from one position to another through three different modes: conduction, convection and radiation.

infrared spectroscopy → infracrvena spektroskopija

Infrared (IR) spectroscopy is a technique used for determining the structure (and sometimes concentration) of molecules by observing how infrared radiation is absorbed by a sample.

laser → laser

Laser (light amplification by stimulated emission of radiation) is a light amplifier usually used to produce monochromatic coherent radiation in the infrared, visible, and ultraviolet regions of the electromagnetic spectrum.

marked matter → označena tvar

Marked matter is matter which has a radioisotope inside.

meitnerium → meitnerij

Meitnerium was discovered by Peter Armbruster, Gottfried Münzenber and their co-workers at the Heavy Ion Research Laboratory (Gesellschaft für Schwerionenforschung, GSI) in Darmstadt, Germany in 1982. Named in honour of Lise Meitner (1878-1968), the Austrian physicist. It is synthetic radioactive metal. Meitnerium was produced bybombarding bismuth-209 with iron-58.
