The word
orgasm refers to the intense physical and emotional sensation and involuntary muscular contractions experienced at the peak of sexual excitement. Its usage in English dates back to the 17th century, initially referring to violent excitement of emotions or other bodily functions more generally, before specializing to its primary sexual meaning.
Etymology and Translation
The etymology traces back through several languages to an ancient shared root.

Greek: The English word comes from the Modern Latin orgasmus, which in turn is from the Greek word ὀργασμός (orgasmos), meaning "excitement, swelling". The Greek term derives from the verb ὀργάω (orgaō), which means "to swell with moisture, to be in heat, to be excited".
Latin: The Greek orgasmos was adopted into New Latin as orgasmus, which was used in medical texts from the early 16th century.
Sanskrit: The Greek verb orgaō is related to the Proto-Indo-European (PIE) root *wrog- ("to burgeon, swell with strength"), which is also the source of the Sanskrit word ūrjā (ऊर्जा). Ūrjā conveys meanings such as "nourishment, sap, vigor, strength, energy, or force".

Usage

Medical/Biological: The term is primarily used in a biological and medical context to describe the physiological sexual response cycle, including the sudden release of sexual tension and rhythmic contractions of the pelvic floor muscles.
General/Figurative: In broader or older usage (from 1763 onwards), it can refer to any "immoderate excitement or action" or "frenzy," such as a non-sexual "orgasm of emotion".
Verb: The word "orgasm" was first used as a verb in the 1970s (e.g., "to orgasm").

In Sanskrit, there is no single direct equivalent to the English "orgasm"; rather, several words describe aspects of sexual climax, excitement, or pleasure, reflecting a nuanced understanding in ancient texts like the
Kama Sutra and Tantric noscriptures.
Ancient Sanskrit Terms
Ancient texts use various terms to describe the physical and spiritual aspects of sexual climax:

Visṛṣṭi (विसृष्टि)
Definition/Usage: Primarily translates to "emission," "letting loose," or "creation". In a sexual context, especially for males, it refers to the moment of ejaculation. Tantric texts use this term to describe the physical release which can lead to spiritual bliss.
Etymology: Derived from the verbal root sṛj (to let go, emit) with the prefix vi (apart, out).
Samarasa (समरस)
Definition/Usage: Means "equipoise in feelings" or "same taste". In Tantra, Samarasa refers to the sublime, non-discriminating spiritual ecstasy achieved at the moment of orgasm, where the individual experiences a union of their personal consciousness with the divine.
Etymology: A compound word: sama (same, equal) and rasa (juice, essence, taste, sentiment).
Kāma-rasa (कामरस)
Definition/Usage: Refers to the "juice" or "essence" of sexual enjoyment, a broader term for the pleasure experienced during sexual activity and climax.
Etymology: A compound word: Kāma (desire, love, sexual love) and rasa (essence, taste, emotion).
Ūrjā (ऊर्जा)
Definition/Usage: While not a direct term for orgasm, ūrjā (vigor, energy, strength) is the Sanskrit word related to the Proto-Indo-European root that also produced the Greek word orgasmos. It conveys the sense of swelling power or vital energy that precedes or accompanies climax.

Modern Sanskrit Words
In modern translations and dictionaries seeking a direct equivalent for the contemporary English "orgasm," several functional Sanskrit terms are offered:

Āsaṃvega (आसंवेग)
Definition/Usage: A term used to denote intense sexual excitement leading to climax, often found in modern translation dictionaries.
Etymology: Derived from saṃvega (agitation, excitement, impulse) with the prefix ā.
Kṣobha (क्षोभ)
Definition/Usage: Signifies "agitation, disturbance, or excitement," used in modern contexts to describe the physical perturbation of the body during climax.
Etymology: Related to the root kṣubh (to be agitated, tremble).
Drava (द्रव) or Uttāpa (उत्ताप)
Definition/Usage: Drava means "flowing" or "liquid," referring to the seminal flow, while Uttāpa means "intense heat" or "great excitement," capturing the physical sensation.

These modern terms are often used as direct dictionary translations, while the ancient words carry deeper physiological and philosophical connotations within traditional Indian contexts.

Eddies, or local variations, in magnetic flux density are typically detected using specialized
magnetic sensors in a process called Eddy Current Testing (ECT) or Magnetic Flux Leakage (MFL) testing. The degree of accuracy depends heavily on the sensor technology used and the application, with some advanced systems achieving sensitivities in the femtotesla (fT) range or spatial resolutions of less than a millimeter.
Detection Methods
The primary method for detecting localized magnetic variations is using sensors that measure changes in a magnetic field:

Eddy Current Testing (ECT): This is a key non-destructive evaluation technique. An alternating current in an excitation coil induces eddy currents in a conductive test material. Defects or variations in the material (like cracks or changes in conductivity/permeability) disrupt the flow of these induced currents, which in turn alters the secondary magnetic field they produce. A sensor, often a pick-up coil or a magnetic sensor, measures the resulting changes in the amplitude and phase of the magnetic field (or the impedance of the coil) to identify the defect.
Magnetic Flux Leakage (MFL): This method is mainly used for ferromagnetic materials (e.g., pipelines). The material is magnetized close to saturation. If a defect is present, the magnetic field "leaks" out of the material's surface because the defect has much lower magnetic permeability. Magnetic sensors, typically Hall effect sensors or magnetoresistive (MR) sensors, are used to detect this leakage field.
High-Resolution Sensors: Modern systems employ advanced magnetic sensors for higher sensitivity and spatial resolution:
Hall Effect Sensors: These produce a voltage proportional to the applied magnetic field. They are compact, reliable, and a common choice for MFL measurements.
Magnetoresistive (MR) Sensors: These sensors (including AMR, GMR, and TMR) change their electrical resistance in the presence of a magnetic field. GMR and TMR sensors offer very high sensitivity and can be arranged in dense arrays for high-resolution mapping of surface defects.
SQUID (Superconducting Quantum Interference Devices): These are extremely sensitive magnetometers used for measuring very small magnetic field changes, often in laboratory or specialized environments due to the need for cryogenic cooling.

Degree of Accuracy
The accuracy and sensitivity for detecting these variations vary significantly by the technology and specific instrumentation used:

Resolution and Sensitivity:
General-purpose, handheld gaussmeters/magnetometers using Hall effect sensors can have a resolution of a few microteslas (µT) or better.
High-sensitivity magnetometers, such as optically pumped magnetometers or SQUIDs, can detect fields in the picotesla (pT) or even femtotesla (fT) range.
In a specific eddy current non-destructive testing system, the standard deviation for amplitude was found to be about 0.8 mV and for the phase angle about 48 arcseconds, which successfully identified a 1 mm wide by 1 mm deep defect.
Spatial Resolution: Using sensor arrays (e.g., GMR arrays) allows for high spatial resolution, with the ability to detect defects as small as 0.44 mm in diameter with a separation of less than 2 mm.
Overall Accuracy: The absolute accuracy of commercial magnetometers can range from a few percent of the reading to parts per million (ppm) depending on the quality and type of the instrument. System errors and environmental factors (like temperature drift or external magnetic fields) often need to be compensated for to achieve optimal accuracy.

A specific, universally accepted schematic for a functional "experimental orgone energy meter" does not exist in mainstream science, as the underlying principle of "orgone energy" is not recognized by established physics
. However, the commercially available devices, such as the LM4, are solid-state reproductions based on principles described by Wilhelm Reich's original "Orgone Energy Field Meter" (OEFM).
Principle of Operation
The original OEFM described by Wilhelm Reich was not a conventional electronic circuit but an apparatus that produced a visible effect:

It typically involved two parallel metal plates, one insulated with an organic material, connected to a simple 40-watt to 60-watt tungsten bulb or an argon gas tube.
When a hand or living organism was brought near or touched the apparatus, the gas tube would luminesce, a phenomenon Reich attributed to the organism's "orgone energy field" interacting with the apparatus's ability to concentrate this energy.

Modern Solid-State Meters (like LM4)
Modern "life energy meters" developed by companies like Heliognosis (which makes the LM4 for Essentia) are solid-state electronic devices that aim to replicate the effect of Reich's original apparatus in a more user-friendly way, using modern circuitry to provide a quantitative meter reading:

These devices use sensitive electronic circuits, likely involving high-impedance inputs and potentially electromagnetic oscillators, to detect subtle energy fields or electrostatic variations.
They typically use various electrodes (probes, plates) and sensitivity settings to measure interactions with objects, living beings, or the environment.
The exact internal circuit schematic for commercially sold meters like the LM4 is considered proprietary and is generally not publicly available. The manuals describe operation and use, but not the technical wiring.

DIY Alternatives
For those interested in building their own, information is available online for creating the original Reich-style devices or simple related circuits:

Plans for the original orgone accumulator construction are available from sources like the Wilhelm Reich Museum.
Simple "radionics" or "orgone amplifier" circuits can be found in various alternative science documents online, often involving quartz crystals, mobius coils, and basic electronic components to create a desired effect. These also are not based on standard scientific principles.

The term
"medicine" refers to the science and practice of diagnosing, treating, and preventing disease, as well as substances used for these purposes. Its linguistic origins trace back to the Proto-Indo-European root *med-, meaning "to measure, limit, consider, or advise".
Etymology
The word "medicine" has the following etymological path:

Proto-Indo-European: Derived from the root *med- ("to measure, limit, consider, advise").
Latin: From *med- came the Latin verb medeor ("I heal") and the noun medicus ("a physician, surgeon"). This led to the feminine noun medicīna ("the healing art, medicine, a physician's shop, a remedy").
Old/Middle French: Adopted as medecine.
Middle English: Adopted as medicin or medicine, from which modern English is derived.

Usage
Modern usage of "medicine" encompasses several related meanings:

The field of study: The broad discipline dedicated to the maintenance of health and the prevention and treatment of disease.
A substance: A drug or preparation used for treatment or prevention of illness (e.g., "Take your medicine").
Indigenous/Cultural: In specific contexts, it can refer to the spiritual or magical practices of Indigenous cultures (e.g., "medicine man," "medicine wheel"), a usage calqued from the Ojibwe word mashkiki.

Proto-Indo-European Cognates
The PIE root *med- has cognates across many Indo-European languages, generally relating to the concepts of "measuring," "advising," or "healing."

Greek: medein ("to rule over, protect")
Germanic: Gothic miton ("to measure, limit"), Old English metan ("to measure")
Celtic: Old Irish midir ("judge")
Avestan: vī-mad-man ("physician")

Synonyms
Synonyms for "medicine" depend heavily on the specific context or sense in which the word is used:

For the field of practice: Healthcare, medical science, physic (archaic).
For a substance: Medication, drug, remedy, cure, treatment, pharmaceutical, specific, nostrum.

Re: https://www.meta-synthesis.com/webbook/35_pt/pt_database.php

The "Internet Database of Periodic Tables" on the meta-synthesis website is
a specialized, internal database that is not fully indexed in a way that allows a general search engine like Google to perform complex, dynamic searches within its contents.
Here is how general search engines interact with the database:

Indexing Static Pages: Google can index the main entry page and some of the static, pre-defined search results pages (like "All Periodic Tables by Name" or "Top 10 Periodic Tables").
Inability to Run Dynamic Queries: General search engines cannot execute the website's internal search functions (such as searching for specific data points, years, or types using the drop-down menus on the site). This is because the results are generated dynamically based on user input within the site's interface, rather than existing as static, indexable pages.
Data Retrieval: To access specific information from the over 1300 periodic tables in the database, a user must visit the meta-synthesis website and use its dedicated internal search tools and filters.

In summary, the meta-synthesis database is a comprehensive resource, but specialized queries must be performed directly on its website using its built-in functionality.

The meta-synthesis website appears to be a personal project maintained by
Dr. Mark Leach, who describes himself as the "database curator." The site does not appear to be a commercial entity, academic institution, or government body with publicly disclosed financials or institutional funding.
Financial Situation and Risk
The financial situation is not publicly documented, as it is a personal website. The lack of a formal institutional backing might inherently introduce some level of risk compared to a database maintained by a large organization.

Risk Factors: The primary risk seems related to the long-term maintenance and funding being dependent on an individual's personal capacity and resources. If the curator is no longer able to maintain the site, its future would be uncertain.
Mitigating Factors: The site's content is highly specialized and valuable to the chemistry community. Such valuable educational resources are often candidates for preservation by academic or scientific organizations should the original curator step away.

Future of the Database if the Site Closes
If the website were to close, several things could happen:

Data Loss: Without a plan for preservation, the unique compilation of over 1,300 periodic tables could become unavailable.
Archival Efforts: Websites of significant educational value are often preserved by digital archives, such as the Internet Archive's Wayback Machine. While not a perfect substitute for the live, searchable database, this would prevent a total loss of the information.
Potential Migration: The site mentions the potential to "expand and open up the data entry to chemists and chemical educators on the web". This suggests a recognition of the value of the data and a possible future path for collaboration or migration to a more robust, community-supported platform, which would ensure its longevity.

For now, the database remains a unique and comprehensive resource curated by an individual expert.
