  2. Optical resolution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Optical_resolution

    Also common in the microscopy literature is a formula for resolution that treats the above-mentioned concerns about contrast differently. [2] The resolution predicted by this formula is proportional to the Rayleigh-based formula, differing by about 20%. For estimating theoretical resolution, it may be adequate.

  3. Spectral resolution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spectral_resolution

    The spectral resolution of a spectrograph, or, more generally, of a frequency spectrum, is a measure of its ability to resolve features in the electromagnetic spectrum.It is usually denoted by , and is closely related to the resolving power of the spectrograph, defined as =, where is the smallest difference in wavelengths that can be distinguished at a wavelength of .

  4. Cauchy's equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cauchy's_equation

    The most general form of Cauchy's equation is = + + +,where n is the refractive index, λ is the wavelength, A, B, C, etc., are coefficients that can be determined for a material by fitting the equation to measured refractive indices at known wavelengths.

  5. Angular resolution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Angular_resolution

    Angular resolution describes the ability of any image-forming device such as an optical or radio telescope, a microscope, a camera, or an eye, to distinguish small details of an object, thereby making it a major determinant of image resolution.

  6. Temporal resolution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Temporal_resolution

    Temporal resolution (TR) refers to the discrete resolution of a measurement with respect to time. It is defined as the amount of time needed to revisit and acquire data for exactly the same location. When applied to remote sensing, this amound of time is influenced by the sensor platform's orbital characteristics and the features of the sensor ...

  7. Fundamental resolution equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fundamental_Resolution...

    3) Changing α is the most effective way of increasing resolution. This can be done by choosing a stationary phase that has a greater difference between k 1 ' and k 2 '. It can also be done in L.C. by using pH to invoke secondary equilibria (if applicable). The fundamental resolution equation is derived as follows:

  8. Lists of physics equations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lists_of_physics_equations

    In physics, there are equations in every field to relate physical quantities to each other and perform calculations. Entire handbooks of equations can only summarize most of the full subject, else are highly specialized within a certain field. Physics is derived of formulae only.
