Szétszóródó

Szétszóródó is a Hungarian adjective formed from the verb szétszóródni (to scatter, to spread out) with the suffix -ódó, used to describe an ongoing state or tendency. It refers to something that is distributed across space or among components in a way that is spread out, rather than centralized or clustered. The term is common in scientific and technical contexts as well as in everyday language.

The word can describe processes or arrangements in various fields. In physics and chemistry, szétszóródó részecskék or szétszóródás denotes particles or energy that have been scattered, resulting in a nonuniform distribution. In ecology and biology, szétszóródó populációk or szétszóródó magvak describe organisms or seeds that are dispersed irregularly rather than forming dense groups. In geography or urban planning, szétszóródó települések characterizes settlements that are spread across a region instead of concentrating in a single urban center.

Relationship to related terms: szétszóródás or diszperzió refer to the dispersion or scattering process itself, while szétszóródó specifically characterizes the resulting distribution or the subject exhibiting dispersion.
