The Transcendental

The exponential function with base b can also be defined as the inverse of the logarithmic function. The most common exponential function in applications corresponds to choosing Z the transcendental number e. 

Due to the inherent uncertainty of the Langmuir model and difficulties in solving the transcendental equation (41), probably the most accurate treatment in the near-equilibrium cases is a numerical or graphical integration of the expression... 

In estimating the value of Ed by means of the transcendental equations (28), the circumstance utilized is that the variation of em for a given change in Tm is much less than the variation of exp(em) (31). Until now, only particular solutions have been available for the hyperbolic and linear heating schedules and for the first-order and second-order desorptions. They can be found for example in the fundamental papers by Redhead (31) and Carter (32) or in the review by Contour and Proud homme (106), and therefore will not be repeated here. Recently, a universal procedure for the... 

The prefactor of the exponential in (C.7) is less easily obtained. To get it one has to solve the transcendental equation de(h)/h = 0 for / and insert this into Numerically one obtains that this factor is close to 1/2. 

One of the drawbacks of the first iteration, however, is that computation of energy quantities, e.g. orbital and total energies, requires to evaluate the integrals occurring in Eq. 3 on the basis of the ( )il )(p)- Unfortunately, the transcendental functions in terms of which the (]>il Hp) are expressed at the end of the first iteration do not lead to closed form expressions for these integrals and a numerical procedure is therefore needed. This constitutes a barrier to carry out further iterations to improve the orbitals by approaching the HE limit. A compromise has been proposed between a fully numerical scheme and the simple first iteration approach based on the fact that at the end of each iteration the < )j(k)(p) s entail the main qualitative characteristics of the exact solution and most... 

The following tabulation will help beginners to find the various inter-relationships, when working with the alchemical manifestations on both, the transcendental and physical planes"... 

We notice that the positive blackbody contributions for E and P dominate in the high-temperature limit, while the energy and the pressure are negative for low T. From Eq. (32), we can determine the critical curve (/3C = XoL) for the transition from negative to positive values of P, by searching for the value of the ratio x = j3/L for which the pressure vanishes this value, xo, is the solution of the transcendental equation... 

As before, for any given value of L, the pressure changes from negative to positive when the temperature is raised. The critical curve for this transition is f3c = xoL, where Xo is the value of ratio % = f3/L for which the pressure vanishes, that is the solution of the transcendental equation... 

Because solving the transcendental equation (1.5.23) requires iterative methods of root finding, the numerical solution to this equation is postponed to Section 3.1. o... 

The parameter , is therefore obtained as a solution of the transcendental equation...

Alchemists [two books putting forward the transcendental theory] had considered the lives of the symbolists, as well as the nature of the symbols, their views would have been very much modified they would have found that the tiue method of Hermetic interpretation lies in a middle course but the errors which originated with merely typographical investigations were intensified by a consideration of the great alchemical theorem, which, par excellence, is one of universal development, which acknowledges... 

Maybe it s because I m not the transcendental type, but sadly, I didn t have any great insights. At the very least, however, I was now a semi-official, semi-bonafide member of the LSD savvy brotherhood. 

We shall defer detailed discussion of the ripple structure, which is considerably more complicated both mathematically and physically than the interference structure, until Chapter 11. Suffice it to say for the moment that the ripple structure has its origins in the roots of the transcendental equations (4.54) and (4.55), the conditions under which the denominators of the scattering coefficients vanish. 

At the limit the derivative du/da —> oo and the curve is tangent to the vertical. The dashed continuation of the curve corresponds to a spurious root of the transcendental equation, an unstable, physically unrealizable regime.
