सीधे मार्ग से फेर देनेवाला, सीधे रास्ते से फेर देनेवाला,

refractive's Usage Examples:

6); and it has been suggested that the association of these two is analogous to the association of the rods and cones of the animal eye with their pigment layer, the light absorbed by the red pigment-spot setting up changes which react upon the refractive granule and being transmitted to the flagellum bring about those modifications in its vibrations by which the direction of movement of the organism is regulated.

Liquid prisms, however, suffer from the fact that any change of temperature involves a change in the refractive index of the prism.

It would therefore seem to be more appropriate to replace 1 - K- 1 by (2 - I)1112, where j s is the refractive index; but this expression involves the wave propagation for periods coinciding with free periods of the molecules.

The question as to whether the motion was due to an irregular distribution of the earth's atmosphere, thus involving abnormal variations in the refractive index, was also investigated; here, again, negative results were obtained.

The equations finally arrived at are DX2(A2_ 2) (x2_ A2m)2+g2A2 ' DgA3 (A A l m) 2 +g 2 A2 ' where is the wave-length in free ether of light whose refractive index is n, and A m the wave-length of light of the same period as the electron, is a coefficient of absorption, and D and g are constants.

n being the refractive index, A the wave-length, and A, B, C, 'c., constants depending on the material, which diminish so rapidly that only the first three as here written need be taken into account.

Wood has studied the iridescent colours seen when a precipitate of potassium silicofluoride is produced by adding silicofluoric acid to a solution of potassium chloride, and found that they are due to the same cause, the refractive index of the minute crystals precipitated being about the same as that of the solution, which latter can be varied by dilution.

by the methods of the differential calculus or geometrically, that the deviation increases with the refractive index, the angle of incidence remaining constant.

in depth, and its waters are remarkable for their transparency and refractive powers.

Relation of Refractive Index and Salinity.
