Light, reflected from the internal cleavage planes, is refracted many times, which leads to spectacular color interference of light on spinodal decomposition structures commensurate with its wavelength. These properties of belomorite are by no means unique; their manifestations are characteristic of many minerals, collectively called “moon ...
Color charge is a property of quarks and gluons that is related to the particles' strong interactions in the theory of quantum chromodynamics (QCD). Like electric charge, it determines how quarks and gluons interact through the strong force; however, rather than there being only positive and negative charges, there are three "charges", commonly called red, green, and blue.
The moonstone is the Florida State Gemstone; it was designated as such in 1970 to commemorate the Moon landings, which took off from Kennedy Space Center. However, it does not naturally occur in the state. [6] In Thailand, moonstone is known as Mukdahan, the same name as the northeastern province next to the river Mekong, Mukdahan.
Selenium, like manganese, can be used in small concentrations to decolorize glass, or in higher concentrations to impart a reddish color, caused by selenium nanoparticles dispersed in glass. It is a very important agent to make pink and red glass. When used together with cadmium sulfide, [9] it yields a brilliant red color known as "Selenium Ruby".
Color superconductivity is a phenomenon where matter carries color charge without loss, analogous to the way conventional superconductors can carry electric charge without loss. Color superconductivity is predicted to occur in quark matter if the baryon density is sufficiently high (i.e., well above the density and energies of an atomic nucleus ...
The force between quarks is known as the colour force [6] (or color force [7]) or strong interaction, and is responsible for the nuclear force. Since the theory of electric charge is dubbed "electrodynamics", the Greek word χρῶμα (chrōma, "color") is applied to the theory of color charge, "chromodynamics".
A fictitious color or imaginary color is a point in a color space that corresponds to combinations of cone cell responses in one eye that cannot be produced by the eye in normal circumstances seeing any possible light spectrum. [4] No physical object can have an imaginary color.
Orthoclase, or orthoclase feldspar (endmember formula K Al Si 3 O 8), is an important tectosilicate mineral which forms igneous rock.The name is from the Ancient Greek for "straight fracture", because its two cleavage planes are at right angles to each other.
