Photons interact with an object by some combination of reflection, absorption and transmission. Some materials, such as plate glass and clean water, transmit much of the light that falls on them and reflect little of it; such materials are called optically transparent. Many liquids and aqueous solutions are highly transparent.
The Pulfrich effect is the effect that covering one eye with transparent but darkened glass can cause purely lateral motion to appear to have a depth component even though in reality it doesn't; even a completely flat scene such as one shown on a television screen can appear to exhibit some three-dimensional motion, but this is an illusion ...
Is, among other things, a powerful but unstable explosive that will even affect the Daleks' body casings (and, ironically, is also the material used in the makeup of said body casings). Dark Metal DC Comics: A metal discovered by Batman in the Dark Nights: Metal storyline. It can link the known multiverse with the "Dark Multiverse." Dilithium ...
Corundum (Al 2 O 3) is transparent and is widely used in commercial and industrial settings. It has a hardness of 9 Mohs , making it the third hardest mineral after diamond and moissanite . Aluminium oxynitride ((AlN) x ·(Al 2 O 3 ) 1− x ) is another transparent ceramic, with a hardness of 7.7 Mohs , and has military applications as bullet ...
During her promotional tour for the Yargos Lanthimos-directed film, Stone has worn a number of transparent ensembles. Last week, for the New York City premiere, she wore a semi-sheer lace gown by ...
Refraction at interface. Many materials have a well-characterized refractive index, but these indices often depend strongly upon the frequency of light, causing optical dispersion.
Transparent Things is a novel by Vladimir Nabokov published in 1972. It was originally written in English. Plot summary. The short novel tells the story of Hugh ...
