PRISM is a code name for a program under which the United States National Security Agency (NSA) collects internet communications from various U.S. internet companies. [1] [2] [3] The program is also known by the SIGAD US-984XN. [4] [5] PRISM collects stored internet communications based on demands made to internet companies such as Google LLC ...

Prism dioptres. Prism correction is commonly specified in prism dioptres, a unit of angular measurement that is loosely related to the dioptre. Prism dioptres are represented by the Greek symbol delta (Δ) in superscript. A prism of power 1 Δ would produce 1 unit of displacement for an object held 100 units from the prism. [2]
In geometrical optics, vergence describes the curvature of optical wavefronts. [1] Vergence is defined as. where n is the medium's refractive index and r is the distance from the point source to the wavefront. Vergence is measured in units of dioptres (D) which are equivalent to m −1. [1] This describes the vergence in terms of optical power.
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 ...
The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences, in partnership with Universal Music Group, has announced the renewal of the the Jonas Gwangwa Music Composition Initiative, a development program ...
A familiar dispersive prism. 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 ...
