  2. Rayleigh scattering - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rayleigh_scattering

    Rayleigh scattering causes the blue color of the daytime sky and the reddening of the Sun at sunset. Rayleigh scattering (/ ˈ r eɪ l i / RAY-lee) is the scattering or deflection of light, or other electromagnetic radiation, by particles with a size much smaller than the wavelength of the radiation.

  3. Colors of noise - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Colors_of_noise

    White noise has a flat power spectrum. White noise is a signal (or process), named by analogy to white light, with a flat frequency spectrum when plotted as a linear function of frequency (e.g., in Hz).

  4. Brownian noise - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brownian_noise

    In science, Brownian noise, also known as Brown noise or red noise, is the type of signal noise produced by Brownian motion, hence its alternative name of random walk noise. The term "Brown noise" does not come from the color , but after Robert Brown , who documented the erratic motion for multiple types of inanimate particles in water.

  5. Scattering - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scattering

    The apparent blue color of veins in skin is a common example where both spectral absorption and scattering play important and complex roles in the coloration. Light scattering can also create color without absorption, often shades of blue, as with the sky (Rayleigh scattering), the human blue iris, and the feathers of some birds (Prum et al. 1998).

  7. Tyndall effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tyndall_effect

    The color of blue eyes is due to the Tyndall scattering of light by a translucent layer of turbid media in the iris containing numerous small particles of about 0.6 micrometers in diameter. These particles are finely suspended within the fibrovascular structure of the stroma or front layer of the iris. [ 9 ]
