Lens (or combination of lenses) that brings different wavelenghts within a ray of light to a single focus, thus overcoming chromatic aberration. It was first successfully made by Joseph von Fraunhofer.
Industry:Astronomy
A lens of two or more components with different refraction indices (e.g., crown glass and flint glass), used to correct for chromatic aberration.
Industry:Astronomy
Element with atomic number between 89 (Actinium) and 103
Industry:Astronomy
Compensating for atmospheric distortions in a wavefront by high-speed changes in the shape of a small, thin mirror.
Industry:Astronomy
The slow rotation of the major axis of a planet's orbit in the same direction as the revolution of the planet itself, due to gravitational interactions with other planets and/or other effects (such as those due to general relativity.)
Industry:Astronomy
1) In Aristotelian physics, the fifth element, of which the stars and planets are made.
2) In Classical physics, an invisible medium that was thought to suffuse all space.
Industry:Astronomy
Light in the nighttime sky caused by the collision of atoms and molecules (primarily oxygen, OH, and Ne) in Earth's geocorona with charged particles and X-rays from the Sun or outer space. The airglow varies with time of night, latitude, and season. It is a minimum at zenith and maximum about 10?above the horizon.
