2-fold (rotational) axis of symmetry


Explanation:
Este vorba de o axa de simetrie a unui corp. In urma rotatiei cu 180 de grade, corpul ajunge intr-o pozitie echivalenta. Denumirea cea mai frecventa este axa de rotatie/simetrie de ordinul doi.
In engleza este "2-fold (rotational) axis of symmetry" sau "rotational axis of the second order". Pentru cazul general, se foloseste "n-fold".
Digira probabil este calchiat dupa germanul digyre, care coexista cu trigyre, tetragyre pentru axele de ordinul 3 si 4 si banuiesc ca este un termen mai vechi.

Example sentence(s):
  • The possible symmetry elements are: the identity element, n-fold axis of symmetry, plane of symmetry, center of inversion, and n-fold rotation-reflection axis.
