Interacting binary stars An Interacting binary star is a type of binary star in which one or both of the component stars has filled or exceeded its Roche lobe. When this happens, material from one star will flow towards the other, forming an accretion disk.
Interacting galaxy Interacting galaxies (Colliding galaxies) is the result of one galaxy's gravity disturbing another galaxy. An example of minor interaction would be a satellite galaxy disturbing the primary galaxy's spiral arms.
Interaction Interaction is a kind of action that occurs as two or more objects have an effect upon one another. The idea of a two-way effect is essential in the concept of interaction, as opposed to a one-way causal effect.
Interaction design Interaction Design (IxD or IaD) is the discipline of defining and creating the behavior of technical, biological, environmental and organizational systems. Examples of these systems are software, products, mobile devices, environments, services, wearables, and even organizations themselves.
Interaction information The interaction information (McGill 1954) or co-information (Bell 2003) is one of several generalizations of the mutual information, and expresses the amount information (redundancy or synergy) bound up in a set of variables, beyond that which is present in any subset of those variables. Unlike the mutual information, the interaction information can be either positive or negative.
Interaction nets Interaction nets are a low level graphical computation paradigm first proposed by Lafont and based on Girard's proof nets for linear logic. An interaction net system comprises of: a set of agents, each with one principle port and zero or more auxiliary ports; a set of rules between agents (there is at most one rule for every pair of agents); and a net on which the rules are to be applied.
Interaction picture In quantum mechanics, the Interaction picture (or Dirac picture) is an intermediate between the Schrödinger picture and the Heisenberg picture. Whereas in the other two pictures either the state vector or the operators carry time dependence, in the interaction picture both carry part of the time dependence of observables.
Interaction point In particle physics, an interaction point (IP) is the place where particles collide. One differentiates between the nominal IP, which is the design position of the IP, and the real or physics IP, which is the position where the particles actually collide.
Interaction-free measurement In physics, interaction-free measurement is a type of measurement in quantum mechanics that detects the position or state of an object without an interaction occurring between it and the measuring device. Examples include the Renninger negative-result experiment, the Elitzur-Vaidman bomb-testing problem, and certain double-cavity optical systems.
Interactional expertise Interactional expertise is part of a more complex classification of expertise developed by Harry Collins and Robert Evans (both based at Cardiff University) and first published in Social Studies of Science in June 2002 (Collins and Evans 2002). In this initial formulation interactional expertise was part of a threefold classification of substantive expertise that also included ‘no expertise’ and ‘contributory expertise’, by which they meant the expertise needed to contribute fully to all aspects of a domain of activity.

Interactive computation Interactive computation involves communication with the external world during the computation. This is in contrast to the traditional understanding of computation which assumes a simple interface between a computing agent and its environment, consisting in asking a question (input) and generating an answer (output).
Interactive computing In computer science, interactive computing refers to software which accepts input from humans — for example, data or commands. Interactive software includes most popular programs, such as word processors or spreadsheet applications.

It was one of several curricula funded by the National Science Foundation designed around the controversial NCTM standards which elevated "mathematical power" and "equity" between races and genders over "memorizing methods to compute exact answers".
Interactive programming Interactive programming is the procedure of writing parts of a program while it is already active. This focuses on the program text as the main interface for a running process, rather than an interactive application, where the program is designed in development cycles and used thereafter (usually by a so-called "user", in difference to the "developer").

In order for visualization to be considered interactive, it must satisfy two criteria:
Interactive voice response In telephony, interactive voice response, or IVR, is a computerized system that allows a person, typically a telephone caller, to select an option from a voice menu and otherwise interface with a computer system. Generally the system plays pre-recorded voice prompts to which the person presses a number on a telephone keypad to select the option chosen: "Press 1 for yes; press 2 for no", and/or recognizes a caller's simple spoken answers such as "yes", "no", or numbers in answer to the voice prompts.
