Resistive switching in HfO2
Resistive switching in HfO2 is the reversible, voltage-driven resistance change in hafnium oxide films, used for non-volatile ReRAM and analog synaptic devices in neuromorphic computing.
Resistive tactile sensor
A resistive tactile sensor is a touch sensor measuring contact force through resistance changes under deformation, the basis of force sensing resistors used in robotic skins and grasp control.
Resistive wall mode
The resistive wall mode (RWM) is a slowly growing magnetohydrodynamic instability of a fusion plasma, a kink slowed by the conducting wall that limits tokamak beta.
Resistivity logging
Resistivity logging is a well-logging technique that measures the electrical resistivity of rock formations around a borehole, used with Archie's equation to estimate porosity and water saturation in petroleum exploration.
Resistivity meter
A resistivity meter is a geophysical field instrument that injects electric current through electrodes and measures voltage to determine subsurface resistivity, supporting groundwater exploration, mineral prospecting, and archaeology.
Resistojet
A resistojet is an electrothermal spacecraft thruster in which an electrical resistance heater heats a gaseous propellant that expands through a nozzle, first flown on a US Navy satellite in 1965.
Resistor
A resistor is a passive two-terminal electronic component used in nearly every circuit; it opposes electric current, converting electrical energy into heat and creating a voltage drop per Ohm's law.
ReSkin
ReSkin is an open-source tactile sensor developed by Meta AI and Carnegie Mellon University in 2021, using a magnetic elastomer skin read by nearby magnetometers.
Reslizumab
Reslizumab (Cinqair, Cinqaero) is a humanized IgG4-kappa anti-IL-5 monoclonal antibody for add-on treatment of severe eosinophilic asthma in adults, given as 3 mg/kg intravenous infusion every 4 weeks, with a boxed anaphylaxis warning.
Resmethrin
Resmethrin, a type I synthetic pyrethroid insecticide (CAS 10453-86-8) first registered in the US in 1967, used for adult mosquito control; very highly toxic to fish, low mammalian toxicity, voluntarily canceled after 2015.
Resmî Gazete
The Resmî Gazete, first issued as Cerîde-i Resmiyye on 7 February 1921, is the official gazette of Türkiye, publishing laws, presidential decrees, and regulations that take effect upon publication.
RESOLFT microscopy
RESOLFT (reversible saturable optical fluorescence transitions) is a super-resolution fluorescence microscopy technique, introduced in 2005, that images living cells beyond the diffraction limit at intensities far below STED.
Resolute desk
The Resolute desk, also known as the Hayes desk, is a partners' desk made from HMS Resolute timbers, presented to President Rutherford B. Hayes by Queen Victoria in 1880.
Resolute Support Mission
Resolute Support Mission (RSM), NATO's non-combat train-advise-assist mission in Afghanistan, 2015-2021, successor to ISAF under UN Resolution 2189; hub-and-spoke structure, about 16,000 troops at peak, terminated after the 2021 withdrawal and Afghan government collapse.
RESOLUTE-AC trial
RESOLUTE-AC (RESOLUTE All Comers, NCT00617084) was a randomized noninferiority trial of 2292 all-comer patients comparing the Resolute zotarolimus-eluting stent with the Xience-V everolimus-eluting stent; target lesion failure was 8.2% vs 8.3% at 12 months, with no differences through 5 years.
Resolute, Nunavut
Resolute (Qausuittuq, "place with no dawn") is a hamlet of 183 people on Cornwallis Island, Nunavut, Canada's second northernmost community, created by the 1953-1955 High Arctic relocation of Inuit from Inukjuak and Pond Inlet and now a High Arctic logistics and research hub.
Resolution
In law and parliamentary practice, a resolution is a formal expression of opinion or intent voted by an official body, such as a written motion adopted by a deliberative body.
Resolution 'On Party Unity'
The Resolution 'On Party Unity' (Резолюция «О единстве партии») was a resolution adopted by the Russian Communist Party's Tenth Congress in Moscow in March 1921, on Lenin's motion, banning factions.
Resolution (film)
Resolution is a 2012 American horror film directed by Justin Benson and Aaron Moorhead, in which a man ties up his addicted friend in a cabin near San Diego to force sobriety.
Resolution (logic)
Resolution, also known as the resolution principle, is a single rule of inference for proving formulas in conjunctive normal form unsatisfiable, developed by J. A. Robinson in 1965.
Resolution Copper
Resolution Copper is a proposed underground copper mine near Superior, Arizona, a Rio Tinto and BHP joint venture atop one of the world's largest undeveloped copper deposits.
Resolution Island (island, Canada)
Resolution Island (Tudjaat) is an uninhabited 1,015 km² island off southeastern Baffin Island, Nunavut, in Davis Strait, named by Thomas Button after his ship; it hosted Cold War Pinetree and DEW Line radar sites and underwent major PCB remediation.
Resolution Life
Resolution Life is a Bermuda-headquartered insurance group founded by Clive Cowdery in 2018 that acquires life insurers and closed blocks of policies; Nippon Life bought it in 2025.
Resolution of singularities
Resolution of singularities replaces the singular points of an algebraic variety by a proper birational map from a nonsingular variety, built from blow-ups; Hironaka proved existence in characteristic zero in 1964.
Resolution Rupes
Resolution Rupes is a ~139 km lobate scarp (thrust-fault cliff) on Mercury at about 63°S, 51°W, named for Cook's ship Resolution; part of the Discovery-Adventure-Resolution scarp arc with ~0.9 km maximum relief.
Resolution Trust Corporation
The Resolution Trust Corporation was a temporary US government corporation created in 1989 to resolve failed savings and loans, taking over 747 thrifts before closing in 1995.
Resolution-class submarine
The Resolution class was a class of four nuclear-powered ballistic missile submarines built for the Royal Navy, carrying 16 Polaris missiles each from 1968 until the mid-1990s.
Resolv.conf
Resolv.conf is a Unix-like system's plain-text resolver configuration file at /etc/resolv.conf, telling the C library which DNS name servers to query and how to qualify hostnames.
Resolvable design
A resolvable design is a block design whose blocks partition into parallel classes, each dividing the point set exactly once, introduced by Raj Chandra Bose in 1942.
Resolve
Resolve is a French metalcore quartet from Lyon, formed in 2016 and signed to Arising Empire, known for the albums Between Me and The Machine (2021) and Human (2023).
