The first Detroit House of Correction opened in 1861 near Detroit's Eastern Market. In 1919, the city of Detroit purchased approximately 1,000 acres (400 ha) in Plymouth Township and Northville Township for approximately US$30 (equivalent to $527.22 in 2023) an acre to house a new Detroit House of Correction. A prison camp, with inmates ...
Armageddon is the third studio album by Canadian rock band Prism, released in June 1979 by Capitol Records. It achieved double platinum status in Canada (in excess of 200,000 units sold). [2] Armageddon is notable for several reasons. Bruce Fairbairn received the Canadian music industry 1980 Juno Award for Producer of the Year for the album.
A tunable laser is a laser whose wavelength of operation can be altered in a controlled manner. While all laser gain media allow small shifts in output wavelength, only a few types of lasers allow continuous tuning over a significant wavelength range. There are many types and categories of tunable lasers. They exist in the gas, liquid, and ...
A Glan–Taylor prism reflects s -polarized light at an internal air-gap, transmitting only the p -polarized component. The optical axes are vertical in the plane of the diagram. A Glan–Taylor prism is a type of prism which is used as a polarizer or polarizing beam splitter. [1] It is one of the most common types of modern polarizing prism.
In geometry, a rectified prism (also rectified bipyramid) is one of an infinite set of polyhedra, constructed as a rectification of an n -gonal prism, truncating the vertices down to the midpoint of the original edges. In Conway polyhedron notation, it is represented as aPn, an ambo-prism. The lateral squares or rectangular faces of the prism ...
Prism spectrometer. A prism spectrometer is an optical spectrometer which uses a dispersive prism as its dispersive element. The prism refracts light into its different colors ( wavelengths ). The dispersion occurs because the angle of refraction is dependent on the refractive index of the prism's material, which in turn is slightly dependent ...
Greenhouse–Geisser correction. The Greenhouse–Geisser correction is a statistical method of adjusting for lack of sphericity in a repeated measures ANOVA. The correction functions as both an estimate of epsilon (sphericity) and a correction for lack of sphericity. The correction was proposed by Samuel Greenhouse and Seymour Geisser in 1959.
