Quanta: Fixed amounts; usually referring to fixed amounts of energy absorbed or emitted by matter.
Quantum limit: The shortest wavelength, present in a continuous x-ray spectrum.
Quantum mechanics: Model of the atom based on the wave nature of subatomic particles, the mechanics of electron waves; also called wave mechanics.
Quantum numbers: Numbers that describe energy states of an electron.
Quark: One of the hypothetical basic particles, having charges whose magnitudes are one-third or two-third of the charge on an electron.
Q unit: A unit of energy, used in measuring the heat energy of fuel reserves, equal to 1018 British thermal units, or approximately 1.055x1021 joules.
