  2. Prism (geometry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prism_(geometry)

    In geometry, a prism is a polyhedron comprising an n-sided polygon base, a second base which is a translated copy (rigidly moved without rotation) of the first, and n other faces, necessarily all parallelograms, joining corresponding sides of the two bases.

  3. Binoculars - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binoculars

    Roof prism designs tend to be narrower and more compact than equivalent Porro prism designs. Thus, compact binoculars are mostly roof prism designs. The telescope tubes of compact binoculars can often be folded closely to each other to radically reduce the binocular's volume when not in use, for easy carriage and storage.

  4. Bonferroni correction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bonferroni_correction

    With respect to FWER control, the Bonferroni correction can be conservative if there are a large number of tests and/or the test statistics are positively correlated. [9] Multiple-testing corrections, including the Bonferroni procedure, increase the probability of Type II errors when null hypotheses are false, i.e., they reduce statistical power.

  6. Polarimeter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polarimeter

    Just after the convex lens there is a Nicol Prism P which acts as a polariser. H is a half shade device which divides the field of polarized light emerging out of the Nicol P into two halves, generally of unequal brightness. T is a glass tube in which an optically active solution is filled.

  7. Geer tube - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geer_tube

    The Geer tube was an early single-tube color television cathode ray tube, developed by Willard Geer. The Geer tube used a pattern of small phosphor-covered three-sided pyramids on the inside of the CRT faceplate to mix separate red, green, and blue signals from three electron guns .

  8. Perger prism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Perger_prism

    A Perger prism or Perger–Porro prism system is a prism, that is used to invert (rotate by 180°) an image. The special feature of this prism is that, like a traditional double Porro prism system, it manages this with only four beam deflections and has neither a roof edge with the accompanying phase correction problems, a mirrored surface or ...

  9. Geiger–Müller tube - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geiger–Müller_tube

    Pancake G–M tube, the circular concentric anode can clearly be seen. The pancake tube is a variant of the end window tube, but which is designed for use for beta and gamma contamination monitoring. It has roughly the same sensitivity to particles as the end window type, but has a flat annular shape so the largest window area can be utilized ...
