COMPOUND PRISM OF UNIFORM DISPERSION.—Messrs. C. G. Abbot and F. E. Fowle, of the Astrophysical Observatory at the Smithsonian Institution, have been investigating the possibility of obtaining a ...

Prisms are commonly used in spectroscopy for dispersing or controlling the direction or polarisation of light. This can be helpful for splitting the incoming light into its wavelength components to ...

Taylor Dispersion Analysis (TDA), or Taylor-Aris dispersion, is a technique for rapidly determining the diffusion coefficients of molecules. From the diffusion coefficient values, hydrodynamic radii ...

Dispersion is an important statistical measure that quantifies the range of outcomes among the components of an index during a specific period. The S&P 500 Realized Dispersion Indices offer two ...
