Difference between Lambda and Length constant

Lambda vs. Length constant

Lambda, Λ, λ (uppercase Λ, lowercase λ; λάμ(β)δα lám(b)da) is the 11th letter of the Greek alphabet. In neurobiology, the length constant (&lambda) is a mathematical constant used to quantify the distance that a graded electric potential will travel along a neurite via passive electrical conduction.

Similarities between Lambda and Length constant

Lambda and Length constant have 4 things in common (in Unionpedia): Axon, Electric potential, Electrical resistance and conductance, Neuroscience.

Axon

An axon (from Greek ἄξων áxōn, axis) or nerve fiber, is a long, slender projection of a nerve cell, or neuron, that typically conducts electrical impulses known as action potentials, away from the nerve cell body.

Electric potential

An electric potential (also called the electric field potential, potential drop or the electrostatic potential) is the amount of work needed to move a unit positive charge from a reference point to a specific point inside the field without producing any acceleration.

Electrical resistance and conductance

The electrical resistance of an electrical conductor is a measure of the difficulty to pass an electric current through that conductor.

Lambda and Length constant Comparison

Lambda has 122 relations, while Length constant has 14. As they have in common 4, the Jaccard index is 2.94% = 4 / (122 + 14).
