  2. Densitometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Densitometry

    The decadic (base-10) logarithm of the reciprocal of the transmittance is called the absorbance or density. [1] DMax and DMin refer to the maximum and minimum density that can be produced by the material. The difference between the two is the density range. [1]

  3. Transmittance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transmittance

    Hemispherical transmittance of a surface, denoted T, is defined as [2] =, where Φ e t is the radiant flux transmitted by that surface into the hemisphere on the opposite side from the incident radiation;

  4. Optical properties - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Optical_properties

    The optical properties of a material define how it interacts with light. The optical properties of matter are studied in optical physics (a subfield of optics) and applied in materials science. The optical properties of matter include: Refractive index; Dispersion; Transmittance and Transmission coefficient; Absorption; Scattering; Turbidity

  5. Ignition timing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ignition_timing

    Pressure in cylinder pattern in dependence on ignition timing: (a) - misfire, (b) too soon, (c) optimal, (d) too late. In a spark ignition internal combustion engine, ignition timing is the timing, relative to the current piston position and crankshaft angle, of the release of a spark in the combustion chamber near the end of the compression stroke.

  6. Spectral power distribution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spectral_power_distribution

    Mathematically, for the spectral power distribution of a radiant exitance or irradiance one may write: =where M(λ) is the spectral irradiance (or exitance) of the light (SI units: W/m 2 = kg·m −1 ·s −3); Φ is the radiant flux of the source (SI unit: watt, W); A is the area over which the radiant flux is integrated (SI unit: square meter, m 2); and λ is the wavelength (SI unit: meter, m).

  7. Time-resolved spectroscopy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Time-resolved_spectroscopy

    In physics and physical chemistry, time-resolved spectroscopy is the study of dynamic processes in materials or chemical compounds by means of spectroscopic techniques.Most often, processes are studied after the illumination of a material occurs, but in principle, the technique can be applied to any process that leads to a change in properties of a material.

  8. Optical depth - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Optical_depth

    Spectral optical depth or spectral optical thickness is the natural logarithm of the ratio of incident to transmitted spectral radiant power through a material. [1] Optical depth is dimensionless , and in particular is not a length, though it is a monotonically increasing function of optical path length , and approaches zero as the path length ...

  9. Spectronic 20 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spectronic_20

    The absorbance of the light is the base 10 logarithm of the ratio of the Transmittance of the pure solvent to the transmittance of the sample, and so the two absorbance and transmittance can be interconverted. [12] Either transmittance or absorbance can therefore be plotted versus concentration using measurements from the Spectronic 20.
