Austromola is an extinct genus of ocean sunfish. It contains a single species, A. angerhoferi, known from the Lower Miocene Ebelsberg Formation near Pucking, Austria.[1] It is thought to be the sister taxon to Mola and Masturus.[2]

This species was a resident of the Paratethys Sea and is estimated to have reached a length around 320 cm (130 in), and total height around 400 cm (160 in), making it among the largest Cenozoic fossil teleosts known. It has been described as "one of the most spectacular Cenozoic teleost fish" in terms of both size and preservation, as three individual articulated, partially complete specimens are known.[2][3]

Variously-defined concept in geometry Semiregular polyhedra:Archimedean solids, prisms, and antiprisms In geometry, the term semiregular polyhedron (or semiregular polytope) is used variously by different authors. Definitions In its original definition, it is a polyhedron with regular polygonal faces, and a symmetry group which is transitive on its vertices; today, this is more commonly referred to as a uniform polyhedron (this follows from Thorold Gosset's 1900 definition of the more general...

Arrhenius equation

Formula for temperature dependence of rates of chemical reactions In physical chemistry, the Arrhenius equation is a formula for the temperature dependence of reaction rates. The equation was proposed by Svante Arrhenius in 1889, based on the work of Dutch chemist Jacobus Henricus van 't Hoff who had noted in 1884 that the van 't Hoff equation for the temperature dependence of equilibrium constants suggests such a formula for the rates of both forward and reverse reactions. This equation has ...
