    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prism_correction

    P is the amount of prism correction (in prism dioptres) c is decentration (the distance between the pupil centre and the lens's optical centre, in millimetres) f is lens power (in dioptres )

  3. Scherrer equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scherrer_Equation

    It is often referred to, incorrectly, as a formula for particle size measurement or analysis. It is named after Paul Scherrer. It is used in the determination of size of crystals in the form of powder. The Scherrer equation can be written as: = ⁡ where:

  4. Vertex distance - Wikipedia

    After simplifying the final equation is found: F F c = 1 − x F ⇒ F c = F 1 − x F = 1 1 F − x ⇒ F = 1 1 F c + x {\displaystyle {\begin{aligned}&&{\frac {F}{F_{\text{c}}}}&=1-xF\\&\Rightarrow &F_{\text{c}}&={\frac {F}{1-xF}}={\frac {1}{{\frac {1}{F}}-x}}\\&\Rightarrow &F&={\frac {1}{{\frac {1}{F_{\text{c}}}}+x}}\end{aligned}}}

    Lorentz factor. where and v is the relative velocity between two inertial frames . For two frames at rest, γ = 1, and increases with relative velocity between the two inertial frames. As the relative velocity approaches the speed of light, γ → ∞. Time dilation (different times t and t' at the same position x in same inertial frame)

  7. Anisometropia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anisometropia

    Amblyopia. Anisometropia is a condition in which a person's eyes have substantially differing refractive power. [1] Generally, a difference in power of one diopter (1D) is the threshold for diagnosis of the condition . [2] [3] Patients may have up to 3D of anisometropia before the condition becomes clinically significant due to headache, eye ...

  8. Free-air gravity anomaly - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Free-air_gravity_anomaly

    The free-air correction is the amount that must be added to a measurement at height to correct it to the reference level: δ g F = 2 g R × h {\displaystyle \delta g_{F}={\frac {2g}{R}}\times h} Here we have assumed that measurements are made relatively close to the surface so that R does not vary significantly.

  9. Aberration (astronomy) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aberration_(astronomy)

    Aberration (astronomy) A diagram showing how the apparent position of a star viewed from the Earth can change depending on the Earth's velocity. The effect is typically much smaller than illustrated. In astronomy, aberration (also referred to as astronomical aberration, stellar aberration, or velocity aberration) is a phenomenon where celestial ...

  10. 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.

  11. Esotropia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Esotropia

    Esotropia is a form of strabismus in which one or both eyes turn inward. The condition can be constantly present, or occur intermittently, and can give the affected individual a "cross-eyed" appearance. [1] It is the opposite of exotropia and usually involves more severe axis deviation than esophoria. Esotropia is sometimes erroneously called ...
