dark energy
  کاروژ ِ تاریک   
kâruž-e târik

Fr.: énergie noire   

A hypothetical form of energy that fills all the space and tends to increase the rate of expansion of the Universe. Assuming the existence of dark energy is a way to explain recent observations that the Universe appears to be expanding at an increasing rate (→ accelerating Universe). Dark energy seems to be a kind of anti-gravity force and is supposed to be related to → vacuum energy. Where gravity pulls things together at the more local level, dark energy tears them apart on the grander scale. The acceleration equation, one of Einstein's equations for the homogeneous Universe, indicates that if the Universe is accelerating, the pressure of the driving component should be strongly negative. The dark energy density relates to the → cosmological constant via: ρ&Lambda = Λc2/(8πG), where G is the → gravitational constant and c the → speed of light. The first indication of dark energy was provided by the observation of → Type Ia supernovae. Other probes of dark energy are: → baryon acoustic oscillations, → weak gravitational lensing, and clusters of galaxies. In the standard model of cosmology, dark energy currently accounts for almost 74% of the total mass-energy of the Universe. Two proposed forms for dark energy are the cosmological constant and exotic component such as → quintessence.

dark; → energy.

Fr.: diverger   

(v.intr.) To move, or extend in different directions from a common point.
Math.: Of a sequence or series, to have no unique limit.

M.L. divergere, from → di- "apart," variant of → dis- + vergere "to bend, turn, incline," from PIE *werg- "to turn," from base *wer- "to turn, bend" (cf. L. vertere "to turn," Av. varət- "to turn," Mod.Pers. gard, gardidan "to turn," Skt. vartate "turns round, rolls," Gk. rhatane "stirrer, ladle," Ger. werden, O.E. weorðan "to become."

Verâyidan, from vâ- "apart," → de-, + gerâyidan "to incline toward; to intend; to make for," infinitive of gerâ, the etymology of which is not clear.

divergence
  واگرایی   
vâgerâyi (#)

Fr.: divergence   

1) The act, fact, or amount of diverging.
2) Math.: A differential → operator that, for a three-dimensional vector function F(x,y,z), is the sum of the → scalar products of the unit vectors and the partial derivatives in each of the three component directions. It is written as div F or ∇ . F = (∂F/∂x)i + (∂F/∂y)j + (∂F/∂z)k, ∇ being the → del operator or → nabla. The divergence of a vector field is a → scalar field. In physics, this operator is used to derive the amount of flux per unit volume leaving an infinitesimal element of volume at a point in a vector field. For example, in an electrostatic field, the divergence of the field is zero unless the volume element contains an electric charge.

From diverge, → diverge, + -ence a noun suffix.
