A Dictionary of Plant Sciences by Michael Allaby and the Graphical Law

Authors: Anindya kumar Biswas

We study A Dictionary of Plant Sciences, the fourth edition, by Michael Allaby from the Oxford University Press. We draw the natural logarithm of the number of entries, normalised, starting with a letter vs the natural logarithm of the rank of the letter, normalised. We conclude that the Dictionary can be characterised by BP(4, βH = 0.02), i.e.the Bethe-Peierls curve in the presence of four nearest neighbours and little external magnetic field, H, with βH = 0.02. β is 1/(k_B T) where, T is temperature and k_B is the tiny Boltzmann constant. This is the case with A Dictionary Of Psychology by A. M. Colman from the Oxford University Presswe have studied before. It appears that the branch of Plant Sciences is tantalizingly closer to the branch of Psychology, internally.

Comments: 22 Pages. A mistake in plotting BW(c=0.01) has been rectified
