  2. Colorimetry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Colorimetry

    Colorimetry is "the science and technology used to quantify and describe physically the human color perception". [1] It is similar to spectrophotometry, but is distinguished by its interest in reducing spectra to the physical correlates of color perception, most often the CIE 1931 XYZ color space tristimulus values and related quantities.

  3. Human hair color - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Human_hair_color

    The Fischer–Saller scale, named after Eugen Fischer and Karl Saller is used in physical anthropology and medicine to determine the shades of hair color. The scale uses the following designations: A (very light blond), B to E (light blond), F to L (), M to O (dark blond), P to T (light brown to brown), U to Y (dark brown to black) and Roman numerals I to IV and V to VI (red-blond).

  4. Spectral color - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spectral_color

    A rainbow is a decomposition of white light into all of the spectral colors. Laser beams are monochromatic light, thereby exhibiting spectral colors. A spectral color is a color that is evoked by monochromatic light, i.e. either a spectral line with a single wavelength or frequency of light in the visible spectrum, or a relatively narrow spectral band (e.g. lasers).

    The original hair type chart, also known as the hair typing system, was created by Andre Walker, Oprah Winfrey's hairstylist, in the 1990s. He debuted the system on Winfrey's show to promote his ...

  6. Spectroscopy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spectroscopy

    An example of spectroscopy: a prism analyses white light by dispersing it into its component colors. Spectroscopy is the field of study that measures and interprets electromagnetic spectra. [1] [2] In narrower contexts, spectroscopy is the precise study of color as generalized from visible light to all bands of the electromagnetic spectrum.

  7. Atmospheric optics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atmospheric_optics

    A rainbow spans a continuous spectrum of colors; the distinct bands (including the number of bands) are an artifact of human color vision, and no banding of any type is seen in a black-and-white photograph of a rainbow (only a smooth gradation of intensity to a maxima, then fading to a minima at the other side of the arc).

  9. Hair analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hair_analysis

    Chemical hair analysis is used for the detection of many therapeutic drugs and recreational drugs, including cocaine, heroin, benzodiazepines and amphetamines. [3] [4] Hair analysis is less invasive than a blood test, if not quite as universally applicable. In this context, it has been reliably used to determine compliance with therapeutic drug ...
