Of or pertaining to Johannes Kepler or to his works or discoveries.

From → Kepler + -ian a suffix forming adjectives.

Keplerian angular velocity
  تندای ِ زاویه‌ای ِ کپلری   
tondâ-ye zâviye-yi-ye Kepleri

Fr.: vitesse angulaire keplérienne   

The angular velocity of a point in a circular orbit around a central mass. It is given by: ΩK = (GM/r3)1/2, where G is the → gravitational constant, M is the mass of the gravitating object, and r is the radius of the orbit of the point around the object.

Keplerian; → angular; → velocity.

Keplerian disk
  گرده‌ی ِ کپلری، دیسک ِ ~   
gerde-ye Kepleri, disk-e ~

Fr.: disque keplérien   

A circumstellar disk (such as an → accretion disk or a → protoplanetary disk) in which the → angular velocity at each radius is equal to the angular velocity of a circular → Keplerian orbit at the same radius. The main characteristic of the Keplerian disk is that → orbital velocity varies as r-1/2. This means that an object on an orbit closer to the central mass turns more rapidly than that on a farther orbit. This velocity difference is at the origin of internal friction or kinematic viscous forces between disk particles, which heats up the material.

Keplerian; → disk.

  تندای ِ مدار ِ کپلری   
tondâ-ye madâr-e Kepleri

Keplerian shear
  کرن ِ کپلری   
karn-e Kepleri

Fr.: cisaillement keplerien   

Shearing motion of an ensemble of particles, each on a nearly circular, → Keplerian orbit. → Orbital velocity decreases as orbital radius increases, yielding shear. Viscous drag on such shear, due to ring-particle collisions, plays a key role in ring processes (Ellis et al., 2007, Planetary Ring Systems, Springer).

Keplerian; → shear.

Keplerian telescope
  دوربین ِ کپلر، تلسکوپ ِ ~   
durbin-e Kepler, teleskop-e ~ (#)

Fr.: télescope de Kepler   

A → refracting telescope which has simple → convex lenses for both → objective and → eyepiece. It suffers from → chromatic aberration, which can be reduced by increasing the → focal ratio. It was first devised by Kepler in 1615.

Keplerian; → telescope.

Kerberos
  کربروس   
Kerberos

Fr.: Kerberos   

The fourth → natural satellite of → Pluto discovered in 2011 using the → Hubble Space Telescope. Also called Pluto IV (P4). It has an estimated diameter of 14-44 km, which makes it the second smallest known moon of Pluto after → Styx. Kerberos revolves around Pluto in the region between → Nix and → Hydra at a distance of about 58,000 km and makes a complete orbit roughly every 32.1 days.

Named after the three-headed dog of Greek mythology.

kernel
  ا َستل   
astel

Fr.: noyau   

1) Chemistry: The remainder of an atom after the valence electrons have been removed.
2a) Math.: 1) The set of elements that a given function from one set to a second set maps into the identity of the second set.
2b) Let A be a linear transformation of the vector space U into the vector space V . The collection of all those vectors x in U such that Ax = 0 is called the kernel of A and is denoted by ker(A).
3) Computers: The set of functions that make up the operating system, the core that provides basic services for all other parts of the operating system. → core = maqzé (مغزه); → nucleus = hasté (هسته).

Kernel, from M.E. kirnel, from O.E. cyrnel, from P.Gmc. *kurnilo- (cf. M.H.G. kornel, M.Du. cornel), from *kernan- (root of corn "seed, grain"), akin to L. granium, + -el, diminutive suffix, variant of → -al.

Astel, from asté "kernel, fruit stone," variants hasté, ostoxân "bone," from Mid.Pers. astak "fruit stone, bone," ast "bone;" Av. ast- "bone;" cf. Skt. asthi- "bone;" Gk. osteon; L. os; Hittite hashtai-; PIE base *os- + Pers. diminutive suffix -el-al.

Kerr black hole
  سیه‌چال ِ کر   
siyah câl-e Kerr (#)

Fr.: trou noir de Kerr   

A → black hole that possesses only mass (not electric charge) and rotates about a central axis. It has an → ergosphere and a → stationary limit.

Named after the New Zealand mathematician Roy P. Kerr (1934-) who, in 1963, was the first to solve the → field equationss of Einstein's theory of → general relativity for a situation of this kind; → black hole.

Kerr-Newman black hole
  سیه‌چال ِ کر-نیومن   
siyah câl-e Kerr-Newman

Fr.: trou noir de Kerr-Newman   

A rotating charged black hole. Compare with the → Kerr black hole and the → Reissner-Nordstrom black hole.

Named after Roy P. Kerr and Ezra T. Newman (1929-) who in 1963 independently found this solution to Einstein's → field equations; → black; → hole.

Kerwan
  کروان   
Kerwan

Fr.: Kerwan   

The largest → impact cratrer on → Ceres, which has a diameter of about 280 km. It is distinctly shallow for its size.

ket
  کت   
ket

Fr.: ket   

In Dirac's notation, a vector which describes the state of a quantum system, whether it is in a space of finite or infinite dimensions. A ket vector, written as | A >, is the dual of the → bra. Like the bra, it appears as an incomplete → bracket expression.

From -ket the second syllable in → bracket.

  میغ ِ سوراخ ِ کلید   
miq-e surâx-e kelid

Fr.: diagramme de Kiel   

A version of the → H-R diagram displaying stellar gravities (→ gravity, log g) against the corresponding → effective temperatures (Teff).
