  2. Prism correction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prism_correction

    Prentice's rule, named so after the optician Charles F. Prentice, is a formula used to determine the amount of induced prism in a lens: = where: 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)

  3. Vertex distance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vertex_distance

    The formula for vertex correction is = (), where F c is the power corrected for vertex distance, F is the original lens power, and x is the change in vertex distance in meters.

    To make the linear dispersion of the system zero, the system must satisfy the equations 1 f 1 + 1 f 2 = 1 f d b l t , 1 f 1 V 1 + 1 f 2 V 2 = 0 ; {\displaystyle {\begin{aligned}{\frac {1}{\ f_{1}\ }}+{\frac {1}{\ f_{2}\ }}&={\frac {1}{\ f_{\mathsf {dblt}}\ }}\ ,\\{\frac {1}{\ f_{1}\ V_{1}\ }}+{\frac {1}{\ f_{2}\ V_{2}\ }}&=0\ ;\end{aligned}}}

  5. 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.

    Example 1 Consider the function f : R 2 → R 2 , with ( x , y ) ↦ ( f 1 ( x , y ), f 2 ( x , y )), given by f ( [ x y ] ) = [ f 1 ( x , y ) f 2 ( x , y ) ] = [ x 2 y 5 x + sin ⁡ y ] . {\displaystyle \mathbf {f} \left({\begin{bmatrix}x\\y\end{bmatrix}}\right)={\begin{bmatrix}f_{1}(x,y)\\f_{2}(x,y)\end{bmatrix}}={\begin{bmatrix}x^{2}y\\5x ...

  7. 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.

  11. Semi-empirical mass formula - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Semi-empirical_mass_formula

    The formula does not consider the internal shell structure of the nucleus. The semi-empirical mass formula therefore provides a good fit to heavier nuclei, and a poor fit to very light nuclei, especially 4 He. For light nuclei, it is usually better to use a model that takes this shell structure into account. Examples of consequences of the formula
