| Angular diameter | The angular diameter of an object as seen from a given position is the diameter measured as an angle. It satisfies the formula \delta = \arctan (diameter/ distance). (references) | ||
| Angular diameter distance | Where \Omega_k is the curvature density and H_0 is the value of the Hubble parameter today. (references) | ||
| Angular distance | The angular separation between two objects as perceived by an observer; "he recorded angular distances between the stars". Source: Wordnet 3.0 Copyright © 2006 by Princeton University. All rights reserved. | ||
| Angular frequency | Angular frequency is a measure of how fast an object is rotating In physics (specifically mechanics and electrical engineering), angular frequency ω (also called angular speed) is a scalar measure of rotation rate. Angular frequency is the magnitude of the vector quantity angular velocity. The term angular frequency vector \vec{\omega} is sometimes used as a synonym for the vector quantity angular velocity . (references) | ||
| Angular gyrus | The angular gyrus is a region of the brain in the parietal lobe, that lies near the superior edge of the temporal lobe, and immediately posterior to the supramarginal gyrus; it is involved in a number of processes related to language and cognition. It is Brodmann area 39 of the human brain. (references) | ||
| Angular mil | The mil (in full, angular mil) is a unit of angular measure. (references) | ||
| Angular momentum | The product of the momentum of a rotating body and its distance from the axis of rotation; "any rotating body has an angular momentum about its center of mass"; "angular momentum makes the world go round".

| Angular momentum coupling | In quantum mechanics, the orbital and spin angular momentum of bodies can interact in angular momentum coupling. These interactions in atoms are used in spectroscopy. (references) | ||
| Angular momentum quantum number | In atomic physics, an angular quantum momentum number is any of the quantum numbers that quantize an angular momentum. They express an angular momentum as an integer multiple of \hbar / 2 (the reduced Planck's constant divided by two). (references) | ||
| Angular motion | The motion of a body about a fixed point or fixed axis, as of a planet or pendulum. It is equal to the angle passed over at the point or axis by a line drawn to the body. Source: Webster's Revised Unabridged Dictionary. | ||
| Angular point | The point at which the sides of the angle meet; the vertex. Source: Webster's Revised Unabridged Dictionary. | ||

| Angular resolution | Resolving power is the ability of a microscope or telescope to measure the angular separation of images that are close together. Angular resolution describes the resolving power of a telescope. Resolution is the minimum distance between distinguishable objects, in microscopy. These terms also apply to other angle and position measuring devices. Resolution, more generally, is the precision of any instrument to measure a continuous variable. (references) | ||
| Angular sections | (Math.), a branch of analysis which treats of the relations of sines, tangents, etc., of arcs to the sines, tangents, etc., of their multiples or of their parts. [R.]. Source: Webster's Revised Unabridged Dictionary. | ||
