Experiments

Although individual experiments, such as the set of solar neutrino experiments, are consistent with non-oscillatory mechanisms of neutrino flavor conversion, taken altogether, neutrino experiments imply the existence of neutrino oscillations.

Biological experiments main The Viking landers conducted biological experiments designed to detect life in the Martian soil (if it existed) with experiments designed by three separate teams, under the direction of chief scientist Gerald Soffen of NASA.

Field experiments main Field experiments are so named to distinguish them from laboratory experiments, which enforce scientific control by testing a hypothesis in the artificial and highly controlled setting of a laboratory.

The Dachau Hypothermia Experiments were "medical experiments" — or, rather, brutal torture — conducted at the Dachau concentration camp with the goal of discovering the most effective treatments for immersion hypothermia.

He hopes that by demonstrating chemistry experiments and getting the students actually doing hands-on experiments, they can inspire the next generation of chemists and kindle an interest in science.

Among the most famous experiments are those of Estermann and Otto Stern in 1929. citation Authors of similar recent experiments with atoms and molecules, described below, claim that these larger particles also act like waves.

ANOVA cautions Balanced experiments (those with an equal sample size for each treatment) are relatively easy to interpret; Unbalanced experiments offer more complexity.

As a result, the most recent experiments with photons no longer suffer from the detection loophole (see Bell test experiments ).

Barring further analytical analysis, we might proceed to experiments to discover the form for the unknown function f. But our experiments are simpler than in the absence of dimensional analysis.

Bentham did not object to medical experiments on animals, providing that the experiments had in mind a particular goal of benefit to humanity, and had a reasonable chance of achieving that goal.

Besides those optical experiments, also electrodynamic first-order experiments were conducted, which should have led to positive results according to Fresnel.

By 1929 Woolf described Wollstonecraft—her writing, arguments, and "experiments in living"—as immortal: "she is alive and active, she argues and experiments, we hear her voice and trace her influence even now among the living".

Econometricians often seek illuminating natural experiments in the absence of evidence from controlled experiments.

Experiments by Samuel G. Soal ran forced-choice ESP experiments in which someone attempted to identify which of five animal pictures a subject in another room was looking at.

Experiments main Once predictions are made, they can be sought by experiments.

Experiments with aptamers showed that some amino acids have a selective chemical affinity for the base triplets that code for them. citation Recent experiments show that of the 8 amino acids tested, 6 show some RNA triplet-amino acid association.

Factorial experiments are more efficient than a series of single factor experiments and the efficiency grows as the number of factors increases.

For example, the nuclear bomb experiments conducted by the Manhattan Project implied the use of nuclear reactions to harm human beings even though the experiments did not directly involve any human subjects.

High-Energy ICF High energy ICF experiments (multi-hundred joules per shot and greater experiments) began in earnest in the early-1970s, when lasers of the required energy and power were first designed.

His experiments were almost entirely confined to "airs", and out of this work emerged his most important scientific texts: the six volumes of Experiments and Observations on Different Kinds of Air (1774–86).
