  2. Helmholtz–Kohlrausch effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Helmholtz–Kohlrausch_effect

    An example of this lightness factor would be if there were different colors on a grey background that all are of the same lightness as it is, as in the image above right. Obviously the colors look different because they are different hues, not just gray, but if the image were converted all to grayscale, all of the colors would match the grey ...

  3. Color vision - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Color_vision

    The boundary colors that are pure spectral colors can be perceived only in response to light that is purely at the associated wavelength, while the boundary colors on the "line of purples" can each only be generated by a specific ratio of the pure violet and the pure red at the ends of the visible spectral colors.

  4. Dispersion relation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dispersion_relation

    Dispersion occurs when sinusoidal waves of different wavelengths have different propagation velocities, so that a wave packet of mixed wavelengths tends to spread out in space. The speed of a plane wave, v {\displaystyle v} , is a function of the wave's wavelength λ {\displaystyle \lambda } :

  5. Spectroscopy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spectroscopy

    Spectroscopy is a branch of science concerned with the spectra of electromagnetic radiation as a function of its wavelength or frequency measured by spectrographic equipment, and other techniques, in order to obtain information concerning the structure and properties of matter. [4]

  6. Wavelength - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wavelength

    The wavelength of a sine wave, λ, can be measured between any two points with the same phase, such as between crests (on top), or troughs (on bottom), or corresponding zero crossings as shown. In physics and mathematics, wavelength or spatial period of a wave or periodic function is the distance over which the wave's shape repeats.

    In the same 2020 review, researchers found that while there were 270 scientific articles published about male athletes getting the brain injury, there were only 25 about women, despite evidence ...

  8. Snell's law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Snell's_law

    The result is that the angles determined by Snell's law also depend on frequency or wavelength, so that a ray of mixed wavelengths, such as white light, will spread or disperse. Such dispersion of light in glass or water underlies the origin of rainbows and other optical phenomena, in which different wavelengths appear as different colors.

    Juliette and I, we always talked about music, and we knew after a couple of conversations that we’re on the same wavelength, we’re into the same shit. We have a similar intensity I think, too ...
