elemental abundance
  فراوانی ِ بن‌پار، ~ عنصر   
farâvâni-ye bonpâr, ~ onsor

Fr.: abondance élémentaire, ~ d'un élément   

Emission nebulae: The relative amount of a given → chemical element in an ionized nebula with respect to another element, usually → hydrogen. Elemental abundance ratios of → emission nebulae are obtained either by adding the observed → ionic abundances of the element or by using → ionization correction factors. Same as → total abundance.

Elemental, from M.L. elementalis, → element + -al; abundance, from O.Fr. abundance, from L. abundantia "fullness," from abundare "to overflow," from L. ab- "away" + undare "to surge," from unda "water, wave;" → abundance.

fundamental
  بنیادین   
bonyâdin (#)

Fr.: fondamental   

1) Being an original or primary source.
2) A basic principle, rule, law, or the like, that serves as the groundwork of a system.

L.L. fundamentalis "of the foundation," from L. fundamentum "foundation," from fundare "to found."

Bonyâdin, adj. of bonyâd "foundation, basis," from *bondâd (Mid.Pers. bune dâtak "foundation, basis"), from bon "basis; root; foundation; bottom" (Mid.Pers. bun "root; foundation; beginning," Av. būna- "base, depth," cf. Skt. bundha-, budhná- "base, bottom," Pali bunda- "root of tree") + dâd "given," from dâdan "to give" (Mid.Pers. dâdan "to give," O.Pers./Av. dā- "to give, grant, yield," dadāiti "he gives;" Skt. dadáti "he gives," Gk. didomi "I give," tithenai "to put, set, place;" L. dare "to give, offer;" Rus. delat "to do;" O.H.G. tuon, Ger. tun, O.E. don "to do").

fundamental constant
  پایای ِ بنیادین   
pâyâ-ye bonyâdin (#)

Fr.: constante fondamentale   

A physical constant that cannot be expressed in terms of other constants of nature, such as the charge of the electron.

fundamental; → constant.

fundamental force
  نیروی‌ ِ بنیادین   
niru-ye bonyâdin (#)

Fr.: force fondamentale   

Same as the → fundamental interaction.

fundamental; → force.

fundamental frequency
  بسامد ِ بنیادین   
basâmad-e bonyâdin (#)

Fr.: fréquence fondamentale   

The lowest frequency in a complex wave.

fundamental; → frequency.

fundamental interaction
  اندرژیرش ِ بنیادین   
andaržireš-e bonyâdin

Fr.: interaction fondamentale   

Any of the four interactions in nature between bodies of matter and that are mediated by one or more particles. Also called the → fundamental force. In order of decreasing strength, the four fundamental interactions are the → strong interaction, the → electromagnetic interaction, the → weak interaction, and the → gravitational interaction.

fundamental; → interaction.

fundamental particle
  ذره‌ی ِ بنیادین   
zarre-ye bonyâdin (#)

Fr.: particule élémentaire   

Same as → elementary particle.

fundamental; → particle.

fundamental star
  ستاره‌ی ِ بنیادین   
setâré-ye bonyâdin

Fr.: étoile fondamentale   

A relatively bright star for which coordinates and proper motion have been determined to a very high degree of accuracy.

fundamental; → star.

instrumental
  سازالی   
sâzâli

Fr.: instrumentale   

Of, relating to, or performed by or with one or more instruments.
See also:
instrumental broadening, → instrumental flexure, → instrumental magnitude, → instrumental profile, → instrumental response function, → instrumentalism, → instrumentalist.

Adj. of → instrument.

instrumental broadening
  پهنش ِ سازالی   
pahneš-e sâzâli

Fr.: élargissement instrumental   

The broadening of a point source caused by the response functions of the telescope and the instrument used.

instrumental; → broadening.

instrumental flexure
  چفتگی ِ سازال   
caftegi-ye sâzâl

Fr.: flexion d'instrument   

An image defect caused by the mechanical flexure of materials; for example the curved-shape image of a long slit in a spectrograph.

instrumental; → flexure.

instrumental magnitude
  برز ِ سازالی   
borz-e sâzâli

Fr.: magnitude instrumentale   

The magnitude derived directly using → Pogson's relation. The instrumental magnitude depends on → detectorsensitivity, telescope → aperture, exact filter → bandpass, etc. It must be → calibrated to some standard → photometric system.

instrumental; → magnitude.

instrumental profile
  فراپال ِ سازالی   
farâpâl-e sâzâli

Fr.: profil instrumental
