Anales de la Universidad de Chile
Anales de la Universidad de Chile is the official review of the Universidad de Chile, founded in 1843 and one of the oldest journals on the continent.
Anales de Tlatelolco
The Anales de Tlatelolco are anonymous Nahuatl historical texts from Tlatelolco, Mexico, narrating the city's history through the Spanish conquest and reputedly the oldest Nahuatl account in the European alphabet.
Analgesia
Analgesia: relief of pain by analgesic drugs (acetaminophen, NSAIDs, opioids) or non-drug methods (heat, exercise, acupuncture, regional blocks). Distinct from anesthesia; evidence favors multimodal, opioid-sparing approaches.
Analgesic
Analgesic (painkiller, pain reliever): medicine that relieves pain. Main classes are acetaminophen (paracetamol), NSAIDs such as aspirin and ibuprofen, and opioids; differs from anesthetics by reducing pain without loss of consciousness.
Analgoidea
Analgoidea, the largest feather mite superfamily (about 1,150 species) of astigmatan mites living on birds, including Analgidae, Proctophyllodidae, Avenzoariidae, and the nest-dwelling dust mite family Pyroglyphidae.
Analib(l)a
Analib(l)a, or Analiba (Greek Analibla), an ancient settlement and Roman Cohors IV Raetorum base in Lesser Armenia near Hasanova, Turkey, on the Satala-Melitene road west of the Euphrates.
Analilia Mejia
Analilia Mejia, Democratic U.S. representative for New Jersey's 11th District since April 2026, former Sanders 2020 political director, first Afro-Latina in Congress, won a special election after Mikie Sherrill's resignation.
Analisa N. Torres
Analisa Nadine Torres, born 1959 in New York, is an American jurist serving as a United States district judge for the Southern District of New York since 2013.
Analise Ortiz
Analise Ortiz is an American Democratic politician who represents Arizona's 24th district in the State Senate, where she leads Democrats on housing affordability, after serving in the Arizona House.
Análisis
Análisis was a Chilean opposition magazine directed by journalist Juan Pablo Cárdenas Squella, one of the main media of dissent against Augusto Pinochet's dictatorship; its collaborator José Carrasco Tapia was murdered by regime agents.
Analmaye
Analmaye, also printed Analmaaye, was a king of Kush of the Napatan period who ruled c. 542–538 BC, succeeded Amaninatakilebte after Malonaqen, and was buried in pyramid Nu. 18 at Nuri.
Analog beamforming
Analog beamforming is an antenna array technique that applies beam-steering weights in the RF domain with phase shifters, producing one beam per RF chain at low power cost.
Analog computer
An analog computer solves mathematical problems by representing variables as continuously varying physical quantities, typically voltages, making it well suited to differential equations until digital machines displaced it.
Analog Devices
Analog Devices, Inc. is an American semiconductor company headquartered in Massachusetts that designs high-performance analog and mixed-signal chips, founded in 1965 and acquiring Maxim Integrated in 2021 for about $21 billion.
Analog gravity
Analog gravity is a research program in which laboratory systems, typically fluids or optical media, mimic curved spacetime and reproduce effects like Hawking radiation without any gravity.
Analog Hawking radiation
Analog Hawking radiation is the laboratory realization of the Hawking effect in systems other than black holes, first proposed by William Unruh in 1981 using sound in moving fluids.
Analog horror
Analog horror (analogue horror) is an internet horror subgenre imitating VHS tapes, TV broadcasts, and emergency alerts; it began around 2015 with Kris Straub's Local 58 and includes The Mandela Catalogue, The Walten Files, and Kane Parsons' Backrooms.
Analog image processing
Analog image processing is image processing on continuous signals, using lenses, masks, and analog circuits for convolution and Fourier transforms with high parallelism and low energy.
Analog multiplier
An analog multiplier is an electronic circuit or integrated circuit whose output is proportional to the product of two inputs, used in modulation, mixing, division, and power measurement.
Analog Science Fiction and Fact
Analog Science Fiction and Fact, launched 1930 as Astounding Stories of Super-Science, is the long-running American hard-SF magazine edited by Campbell, Bova, Schmidt, and Quachri, home of Foundation, Dune, and Ender's Game.
Analog signal
An analog signal is a signal that is continuous in both amplitude and time, such as speech or sensor outputs; converting it to digital requires sampling and quantization.
Analog television
Analog television, also called analog TV, is a broadcast system that transmits picture and sound as continuously varying signals; it dominated broadcasting from the mid-twentieth century until digital transition.
Analog-1
Analog-1 is a two-part European Space Agency analog mission testing whether an astronaut in orbit can teleoperate a rover with haptic, force-feedback control from the ISS in 2019.
Analog-to-digital converter
An analog-to-digital converter (ADC), also called an A-D converter, is an electronic circuit that turns analog voltage into digital numbers by sampling and quantization, with common architectures including SAR, flash, pipelined, and sigma-delta.
Analogic
Analogic is an American imaging and detection company founded in 1967 in Wakefield, Massachusetts, supplying CT subsystems for medical imaging and CT baggage-screening systems for aviation security.
Analogical model
An analogical model is a scientific model representing a target system by exploiting shared mathematical or relational structure with a better-understood source system, a method Maxwell made systematic.
Analogue (company)
Analogue is an American consumer electronics company founded in Seattle in 2011 by Christopher Taber, making FPGA-based consoles and handhelds for playing original retro game cartridges.
Analogue 3D
Analogue 3D: FPGA-based Nintendo 64 recreation by Analogue, released late 2025 at $250. Plays original cartridges region-free at 4K with CRT display modes, four controller ports, 3D OS; competes with MiSTer and ModRetro M64.
Analogue gravity
Analogue gravity is a research field in which waves in laboratory media, such as sound in fluids, mimic fields on curved spacetime, modeling black holes; it began with Unruh's 1981 paper.
Analogy
An analogy is a comparison between two objects or systems that highlights their believed similarities; analogical reasoning uses accepted similarities to support a further similarity, from the Greek analogia, meaning proportion.
