  2. Prism correction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prism_correction

    A prism of power 1 Δ would produce 1 unit of displacement for an object held 100 units from the prism. Thus a prism of 1 Δ would produce 1 cm visible displacement at 100 cm, or 1 meter. This can be represented mathematically as: = ⁡ where is the amount of prism correction in prism dioptres, and is the angle of deviation of the light.

  3. Monoclinic crystal system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monoclinic_crystal_system

    In crystallography, the monoclinic crystal system is one of the seven crystal systems. A crystal system is described by three vectors. In the monoclinic system, the crystal is described by vectors of unequal lengths, as in the orthorhombic system. They form a parallelogram prism. Hence two pairs of vectors are perpendicular (meet at right ...

  4. Scherrer equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scherrer_Equation

    The Scherrer equation, in X-ray diffraction and crystallography, is a formula that relates the size of sub-micrometre crystallites in a solid to the broadening of a peak in a diffraction pattern. It is often referred to, incorrectly, as a formula for particle size measurement or analysis.

    The equation that they developed is as follows: K − 1 = A ε HG − [ H ] 0 − [ G ] 0 + C H C G A ε HG {\displaystyle K^{-1}={\frac {A}{\varepsilon _{\ce {HG}}}}-[{\ce {H}}]_{0}-[{\ce {G}}]_{0}+{\frac {C_{\ce {H}}C_{\ce {G}}}{A}}\varepsilon _{\ce {HG}}}

  6. Maddox wing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maddox_Wing

    Maddox wing. The Maddox Wing is an instrument utilized by ophthalmologists, orthoptists and optometrists in the measurement of strabismus (misalignment of the eyes; commonly referred to as a squint or lazy eye by the lay person). It is a quantitative and subjective method of measuring the size of a strabismic deviation by dissociation of the ...

  7. Esophoria - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Esophoria

    Esophoria is an eye condition involving inward deviation of the eye, usually due to extra-ocular muscle imbalance. It is a type of heterophoria. Cause. Causes include: Refractive errors; Divergence insufficiency; Convergence excess; this can be due to nerve, muscle, congenital or mechanical anomalies.

  8. Clausius–Mossotti relation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clausius–Mossotti_relation

    It is equivalent to the Lorentz–Lorenz equation, which relates the refractive index (rather than the dielectric constant) of a substance to its polarizability. It may be expressed as: [1] [2] ε r − 1 ε r + 2 = N α 3 ε 0 {\displaystyle {\frac {\varepsilon _{\mathrm {r} }-1}{\varepsilon _{\mathrm {r} }+2}}={\frac {N\alpha }{3\varepsilon ...

  9. Gibbs isotherm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gibbs_isotherm

    The Gibbs adsorption isotherm for multicomponent systems is an equation used to relate the changes in concentration of a component in contact with a surface with changes in the surface tension, which results in a corresponding change in surface energy. For a binary system, the Gibbs adsorption equation in terms of surface excess is.
