Difference between Galaxy and Plasma (physics)

Galaxy vs. Plasma (physics)

A galaxy is a gravitationally bound system of stars, stellar remnants, interstellar gas, dust, and dark matter. Plasma (Henry George Liddell, Robert Scott, A Greek English Lexicon, on Perseus) is one of the four fundamental states of matter, and was first described by chemist Irving Langmuir in the 1920s.

Similarities between Galaxy and Plasma (physics)

Galaxy and Plasma (physics) have 23 things in common (in Unionpedia): Accretion disk, Anisotropy, Astrophysical jet, Astrophysics, Black hole, Cambridge University Press, Dark matter, Fractal, Gravity, Interferometry, Interstellar medium, Ion, Ionosphere, Kinetic energy, Magnetic field, Nebula, Neutron star, Outer space, Star, Sun, Supernova remnant, Universe, White dwarf.

Accretion disk

An accretion disk is a structure (often a circumstellar disk) formed by diffused material in orbital motion around a massive central body.

Anisotropy

Anisotropy, is the property of being directionally dependent, which implies different properties in different directions, as opposed to isotropy.

Astrophysical jet

An astrophysical jet is an astronomical phenomenon where outflows of ionised matter are emitted as an extended beam along the axis of rotation.

Astrophysics

Astrophysics is the branch of astronomy that employs the principles of physics and chemistry "to ascertain the nature of the astronomical objects, rather than their positions or motions in space".

Black hole

A black hole is a region of spacetime exhibiting such strong gravitational effects that nothing—not even particles and electromagnetic radiation such as light—can escape from inside it.

Cambridge University Press

Cambridge University Press (CUP) is the publishing business of the University of Cambridge.

Dark matter

Dark matter is a theorized form of matter that is thought to account for approximately 80% of the matter in the universe, and about a quarter of its total energy density.

Fractal

In mathematics, a fractal is an abstract object used to describe and simulate naturally occurring objects.

Gravity

Gravity, or gravitation, is a natural phenomenon by which all things with mass or energy—including planets, stars, galaxies, and even light—are brought toward (or gravitate toward) one another.

Interferometry

Interferometry is a family of techniques in which waves, usually electromagnetic waves, are superimposed causing the phenomenon of interference in order to extract information.

Interstellar medium

In astronomy, the interstellar medium (ISM) is the matter and radiation that exists in the space between the star systems in a galaxy.

Ion

An ion is an atom or molecule that has a non-zero net electrical charge (its total number of electrons is not equal to its total number of protons).

Ionosphere

The ionosphere is the ionized part of Earth's upper atmosphere, from about to altitude, a region that includes the thermosphere and parts of the mesosphere and exosphere.

Kinetic energy

In physics, the kinetic energy of an object is the energy that it possesses due to its motion.

Magnetic field

A magnetic field is a vector field that describes the magnetic influence of electrical currents and magnetized materials.

Nebula

A nebula (Latin for "cloud" or "fog"; pl. nebulae, nebulæ, or nebulas) is an interstellar cloud of dust, hydrogen, helium and other ionized gases.
