Brilliance (gemstone)
Diamond ''adámas'', meaning "unbreakable", "proper", or "unalterable" is one of the best-known and most sought-after gemstones. They have been used as decorative items since ancient times. The hardness of diamond and its high dispersion of light — giving the diamond its characteristic "fire" — make it useful for industrial applications and desirable as jewelry. Diamonds are such a highly traded commodity that multiple organizations have been created for grading and certifying them based on the "four Cs", which are color, cut, clarity, and carat. Other characteristics, such as presence or lack of fluorescence, also affect the desirability and thus the value of a diamond used for jewelry. Diamonds are used in engagement rings. The practice is documented among European aristocracy as early as the 15th century, though ruby and sapphire were more desirable gemstones. The modern popularity of diamonds was largely created by De Beers Consolidated Mines, which established the firs ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Brilliance (graphics Editor)
''Brilliance'' is a bitmap graphics editor for the Amiga computer, published by Digital Creations in 1993. Although marketed as a single package, ''Brilliance'' in reality consisted of two separate (but near identical-looking) applications. One was a palette-based package also named ''Brilliance''. The other was a true-color package called ''TrueBrilliance''. The ''Brilliance'' package was one of the major rivals to ''Deluxe Paint'', the established "killer app" in Amiga bitmap graphics editing. At its launch, Brilliance attracted generally favorable reviews. One commonly noted point was ''TrueBrilliance'''s performance on Hold-and-Modify and true-color images, which was significantly faster than that of Deluxe Paint IV. However, despite being faster and easier to use than ''Deluxe Paint'', ''Brilliance'' never achieved the same level of popularity. It may be significant that (in contrast to Deluxe Paint) by the time of Brilliance's launch, the Amiga market was already in serious ...

Brilliance (synchrotron Light)
A synchrotron light source is a source of electromagnetic radiation (EM) usually produced by a storage ring, for scientific and technical purposes. First observed in synchrotrons, synchrotron light is now produced by storage rings and other specialized particle accelerators, typically accelerating electrons. Once the high-energy electron beam has been generated, it is directed into auxiliary components such as bending magnets and insertion devices (undulators or wigglers) in storage rings and free electron lasers. These supply the strong magnetic fields perpendicular to the beam which are needed to convert high energy electrons into photons. The major applications of synchrotron light are in condensed matter physics, materials science, biology and medicine. A large fraction of experiments using synchrotron light involve probing the structure of matter from the sub-nanometer level of electronic structure to the micrometer and millimeter level important in medical imaging.

Brightness
Brightness is an attribute of visual perception in which a source appears to be radiating or reflecting light. In other words, brightness is the perception elicited by the luminance of a visual target. The perception is not linear to luminance, and relies on the context of the viewing environment (for example, see White's illusion). Brightness is a subjective sensation of an object being observed and one of the Color appearance model#Color appearance parameters, color appearance parameters of many color appearance models, typically denoted as Q. Brightness refers to how much light ''appears to shine'' from something. This is a different perception than lightness, which is how light something appears ''compared to'' a similarly lit white object. The adjective '':wikt:bbright'' derives from an Old English ''beorht'' with the same meaning via metathesis giving Middle English ''briht''. The word is from a Common Germanic ', ultimately from a Proto-Indo-European language, PIE root w ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Spectral Radiance
In radiometry, spectral radiance or specific intensity is the radiance of a surface per unit frequency or wavelength, depending on whether the Spectral radiometric quantity, spectrum is taken as a function of frequency or of wavelength. The International System of Units, SI unit of spectral radiance in frequency is the watt per steradian per square metre per hertz () and that of spectral radiance in wavelength is the watt per steradian per square metre per metre ()—commonly the watt per steradian per square metre per nanometre (). The microflick is also used to measure spectral radiance in some fields. Spectral radiance gives a full radiometry, radiometric description of the Field (physics), field of classical electromagnetism, classical electromagnetic radiation of any kind, including thermal radiation and light. It is conceptually distinct from the descriptions in explicit terms of James Clerk Maxwell, Maxwellian electromagnetic fields or of photon distribution. It refers to mate ...
