  2. Brāhmasphuṭasiddhānta - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brāhmasphuṭasiddhānta

    Brāhmasphuṭasiddhānta is one of the first books to provide concrete ideas on positive numbers, negative numbers, and zero. [4] For example, it notes that the sum of a positive number and a negative number is their difference or, if they are equal, zero; that subtracting a negative number is equivalent to adding a positive number; that the product of two negative numbers is positive.

  3. Visible spectrum - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Visible_spectrum

    Goethe argued that the continuous spectrum was a compound phenomenon. Where Newton narrowed the beam of light to isolate the phenomenon, Goethe observed that a wider aperture produces not a spectrum but rather reddish-yellow and blue-cyan edges with white between them. The spectrum appears only when these edges are close enough to overlap.

  4. Spectrometer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spectrometer

    An XPS spectrometer. A spectrometer (/ s p ɛ k ˈ t r ɒ m ɪ t ər /) is a scientific instrument used to separate and measure spectral components of a physical phenomenon. Spectrometer is a broad term often used to describe instruments that measure a continuous variable of a phenomenon where the spectral components are somehow mixed.

    Compute the Fourier transform (b j,k) of g.Compute the Fourier transform (a j,k) of f via the formula ().Compute f by taking an inverse Fourier transform of (a j,k).; Since we're only interested in a finite window of frequencies (of size n, say) this can be done using a fast Fourier transform algorithm.

  6. Li-Fi - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Li-Fi

    Li-Fi modules. Li-Fi is a derivative of optical wireless communications (OWC) technology, which uses light from light-emitting diodes (LEDs) as a medium to deliver network, mobile, high-speed communication in a similar manner to Wi-Fi. [4]

    One of the main characteristics of VLC is the incapacity of light to surpass physical opaque barriers. This characteristic can be considered a weak point of VLC, due to the susceptibility of interference from physical objects, but is also one of its many strengths: unlike radio waves, light waves are confined in the enclosed spaces they are transmitted, which enforces a physical safety barrier ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2G_spectrum_case

    The 2G spectrum case was a political controversy in which politicians and private officials of the United Progressive Alliance (UPA) coalition government India were allegedly involved in [1] selling or allotting 122 2G spectrum licenses on conditions that provided an advantage to specific telecom operators.
