AI Thread Summary

The energy ordering for d4 ions in a crystal field is 4A1g, 4T2g, and 4T1g. To determine this ordering, one can refer to the Tanabe-Sugano diagram, which provides a framework for understanding the relative energies of terms for dn ions. The discussion emphasizes the importance of these diagrams in predicting electronic configurations and transitions. Understanding the crystal field theory is crucial for analyzing the behavior of d4 ions in various environments. This knowledge is fundamental for applications in materials science and coordination chemistry.

Thread 'Is space stretching or is new space being created?'

Do we even know? My understanding of dark energy is that particles come into existence, exert and outward force, then vanish. My problem with that is how, of course, then how does dark energy know to push everything in the same direction? The pressure exerted would be in all directions, even if the space was moving so why isn't stuff pushed all over the sky? Thanks - rev

Thread 'The Physics of unloading sand from a barge'

I think it's easist first to watch a short vidio clip I find these videos very relaxing to watch .. I got to thinking is this being done in the most efficient way? The sand has to be suspended in the water to move it to the outlet ... The faster the water , the more turbulance and the sand stays suspended, so it seems to me the rule of thumb is the hose be aimed towards the outlet at all times .. Many times the workers hit the sand directly which will greatly reduce the water...
