A current filament is an inhomogeneity in the current density distribution lateral to the of the electric current flow . It is common in the devices showing current-type negative differential conductivity specially of S-type ....
In nonlinear optics, filament propagation is propagation of a beam of light through a medium without diffraction. This is possible because the Kerr effect causes an index of refraction change in the medium, resulting in self-focusing of the beam.... , diffractionless propagation of a light beam
In vacuum tubes, a hot cathode is a cathode electrode which emits electrons due to thermionic emission. The heating element is usually an electrical filament.... , a filament in a vacuum tube that emits electrons
In physical cosmology, filaments are the largest known structures in the universe, thread-like structures with a typical length of 50 to 80 parsec#Megaparsecs_and_gigaparsecss that form the boundaries between large void in the universe....
A Birkeland current is a specific magnetic field aligned current in the Earth?s magnetosphere which flows from the magnetotail towards the Earth on the dawn side and in the other direction on the dusk side of the magnetosphere....
In biology, a filament is a long chain of protein subunits, such as those found in hair, muscle, or in flagella. They are often bundled together for strength and rigidity....
Filamentation is the anomalous growth of certain bacteria, such as E. coli, in which cells continue to elongate but do not divide . Bacterial filamentation is a defect in completing replication and is observed in bacteria responding to a various stresses.... , a long chain of cells
The stamen is the male organ of a flower. Each stamen generally has a stalk called the filament , and, on top of the filament, an anther , and pollen sacs, called sporangium.... , the male part of a flower
A hypha is a long, branching filamentous cell of a fungus, and also of unrelated Actinobacteria. In fungi, hyphae are the main mode of vegetative growth, and are collectively called a mycelium.... , in fungi and Actinobacteria
