Albedo

Albedo is a measure of how much of the light coming from other sources an object reflects. It is a more refined definition of reflectivity. Mathematically, it is taken as the ratio of the reflected light over the incident light. Thus, albedo has a minimum value of 0 for perfectly non-reflective surfaces and a value […]

Altazimuth Mount

Altazimuth Mount is a two-axis mount for supporting and rotating instruments such as solar panels, telescopes, cameras, radio antennas or heliostatic mirrors. Its structure helps an instrument to aim easily with steady viewing in an object. Altazimuth mount is designed with two perpendicular axis, a vertical axis and a horizontal axis. Altazimuth mount allows the

Anti Matter

Anti matter is made of anti atoms. Anti atoms are made of anti-electrons (positrons) and anti quarks exchange photons and gluons (anti particles). Particles move in one direction, while the anti particle moves the opposite direction in a complex space time. Electrons that are moving in the same direction in external time, is the result

Anisotropy

Anisotropy has different measurement with its axes in physical chemistry, unlike isotropy that has equal measurements. Its term is also used in different scientific disciplines that specify a certain property of matter that varies with direction if measured.
