Adiabatic may refer to:

• In thermodynamics,

• Adiabatic process
• Adiabatic index

• In quantum mechanics,

• Adiabatic theorem

• In electronics. This article covers adiabatic processes in Thermodynamics. For adiabatic processes in Quantum mechanics, see Adiabatic process (quantum mechanics Ideal gas relations For an ideal gas the heat capacity is constant with temperature The adiabatic theorem is an important concept in Quantum mechanics.

• Adiabatic Logic
• Adiabatic circuits

• In carbohydrate chemistry.

• Adiabatic Maps

• Born-Oppenheimer approximation, in quantum chemistry
• Adiabatic lapse rate, in meteorology, referred to also as adiabatic cooling. In Quantum chemistry, the computation of the energy and Wavefunction of an average-size Molecule is a formidable task that is alleviated by the Born-Oppenheimer The lapse rate is defined as the negative of the rate of change in an atmospheric variable usually Temperature, with height in an atmosphere
