transition frequency

    0.01 sec.
transition frequency [tran′zish·ən ‚frē·kwən·sē]
(engineering acoustics)
The frequency corresponding to the intersection of the asymptotes to the constant-amplitude and constant-velocity portions of the frequency-response curve for a disk recording; this curve is plotted with output-voltage ratio in decibels as the ordinate, and the logarithm of the frequency as the abscissa. Also known as crossover frequency; turnover frequency.
(quantum mechanics)
The characteristic frequency of radiation emitted or absorbed by a quantum-mechanical system as it changes from one energy state to another; equal to the energy difference between the states divided by Planck's constant.

In a project approved by Paul Scherrer Institute (PSI) in Switzerland, a neutron EDM spectrometer is proposed [1] in which the neutron spin flip transition frequency is measured in four UCN storage chambers exposed to a homogenous 2 [micro]T magnetic field.
To investigate if the third facet diagram was possibly organized by way of another dimension, we attempted to partition the behavioral space according to the frequency of a given page being accessed, rather than the transition frequency.
Considering the possibility that the current distribution may vary from load to load, the average transition frequency versus rf power is measured for each ion crystal, and in each case this is extrapolated to zero shift to give the unshifted frequency [v.
