moduli

Absolute values, essentially

Moduli is the plural of modulus, a term with several technical meanings.

In mathematics, a modulus is the absolute value of a complex number, or the divisor in modular arithmetic: calculating moduli for encryption algorithms.

In physics and engineering, moduli measure material properties like elasticity or rigidity: Young's modulus, bulk modulus.

The word appears almost exclusively in scientific and mathematical contexts.
