    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/U.S.N.:_The_Game_of_War_in...

    The game is about organization, planning, logistics, and coming up with a strategy across a huge area, which isn't easy to do. The game is a realistic simulation of the theater, but it is definitely for grognards and those who have time to leave the game out for several weeks or months." Other reviews and commentary. Moves #7 and #9

  3. Crown glass (optics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crown_glass_(optics)

    Crown glass is a type of optical glass used in lenses and other optical components. It has relatively low refractive index (≈1.52) and low dispersion (with Abbe numbers between 50 and 85). Crown glass is produced from alkali-lime silicates containing approximately 10% potassium oxide and is one of the earliest low dispersion glasses .

  4. Dispersive prism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dispersive_prism

    Dispersive prism. In optics, a dispersive prism is an optical prism that is used to disperse light, that is, to separate light into its spectral components (the colors of the rainbow ). Different wavelengths (colors) of light will be deflected by the prism at different angles. [1] This is a result of the prism material's index of refraction ...

  5. Optical coating - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Optical_coating

    Optical coating. An optical coating is one or more thin layers of material deposited on an optical component such as a lens, prism or mirror, which alters the way in which the optic reflects and transmits light. These coatings have become a key technology in the field of optics. One type of optical coating is an anti-reflective coating, which ...

  7. Prism (optics) - Wikipedia

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

    Prism (optics) An optical prism is a transparent optical element with flat, polished surfaces that are designed to refract light. At least one surface must be angled — elements with two parallel surfaces are not prisms. The most familiar type of optical prism is the triangular prism, which has a triangular base and rectangular sides.

  8. Optical glass - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Optical_glass

    Optical glass refers to a quality of glass suitable for the manufacture of optical systems such as optical lenses, prisms or mirrors.Unlike window glass or crystal, whose formula is adapted to the desired aesthetic effect, optical glass contains additives designed to modify certain optical or mechanical properties of the glass: refractive index, dispersion, transmittance, thermal expansion and ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Opticks

    Opticks: or, A Treatise of the Reflexions, Refractions, Inflexions and Colours of Light is a book by Isaac Newton that was published in English in 1704 (a scholarly Latin translation appeared in 1706). [1] The book analyzes the fundamental nature of light by means of the refraction of light with prisms and lenses, the diffraction of light by ...
