Diffraction Grating
A device that splits light into its component parts or spectrum.
diffraction grating - A system of closely spaced equidistant slits or reflecting strips which, by diffraction and interference, produce a spectrum.
diffraction grating: a plate with a set of closely spaced slits (usually parallel and equi-distant) which disperses incoming light into its constituent wavelengths (i.e. colours).

The transmission gratings, which swing into the optical path behind the mirrors, provide Chandra with high resolution spectroscopy. The High Energy Transmission Grating Spectrometer (HETGS) works over 0.
"Most of the ice migrating from the leading side is settling on top of existing ice, so it is not increasing the total ice cover," Spencer told Astronomy Now.
However both stars and several others in southern Scorpius do belong to the huge nearby "Scorpius OB1 association," an expanding disintegrating group of hot stars that were all born about the same time.
When light is passed through a prism or a diffraction grating to produce a spectrum, the type of spectrum you will see depends on what kind of object is producing the light: is it a thick or thin gas, is it hot or cool, is it a gas or a solid?
The equilibrium tide in the shape of a prolate spheroid that actually does exist for the Moon to pull on is the net result of integrating the actual undulations over all the world's oceans. Earth's net equilibrium tide has an amplitude of only 3.
The fragile comet is rapidly disintegrating as it approaches the Sun. Hubble images have uncovered many more fragments than have been reported by ground-based observers.
A free neutron survives for only a few minutes before disintegrating into a readily observed proton and electron, along with an elusive neutrino, which has no charge and zero, or at most extremely small, mass.
The jump near 5600 Å is due to splicing together data with different grating settings; this kind of analysis tests one's ability to do absolute spectrophotometric calibrations.
The X-ray spectrum obtained with the Reflection Grating Spectrometer (RGS) of the space telescope XMM-Newton is the best obtained so far of such a system. It reveals unprecedented details of its gaseous environment.
Unstable heavy nuclei achieve greater stability by disintegrating into lighter nuclei, but they do not do so immediately. Each type of "parent" nucleus takes a characteristic amount of time to decay.
A Compact Disc (CD) or Digital Versatile Disk (DVD) offers an example of a spectroscopic diffraction grating.
Lighted towers and tall buildings can confuse migrating and local birds, leading to collisions with other birds, structures or windows, or circling the lights until they die of exhaustion.
The chemical analysis and physical study of inaccessible heavenly bodies were made possible by the invention in 1814 of the diffraction-grating spectroscope by the German physicist Joseph von Fraunhofer and his subsequent discovery of the spectral ...

Though we Northerners may feel abandoned by the Sun migrating south with the birds and butterflies, it may behoove us to listen to Joni Mitchell's lyric: something's lost and something's gained in living everyday.
By integrating our lessons with observations, whenever possible, I lead you through a different route that eventually covers the same topics.
Fraunhofer was the inventor of the diffraction grating. He assigned letters to the black absorption lines in the Solar Spectrum.
These days, modern spectroscopy uses diffraction gratings to disperse the light, which is then projected onto CCDs (Charge Coupled Devices) similar to those used in digital cameras.
Light from the star is analysed by splitting it up by a diffraction grating, subdividing the incoming photons into a spectrum exhibiting a rainbow of colors interspersed by absorption lines, ...
I have been studying the capability of Fiber Bragg Gratings sensors in fiber optic cables to detect fractures in composite materials.
"Some of the rocks appear to be disintegrating. They have an odd kind of rotting appearance, with soft interiors and resistant rinds or hulls," said Dr. Larry Soderblom, a rover science-team member from the U.S. Geological Survey, Flagstaff, AZ.
Galileo also photographed a slumping cliff, migrating eruptions and churning lava lakes on Jupiter's sizzling moon.

Joseph Fraunhofer (1787-1826) was a German physicist who first studied the Sun's spectra (these dark lines are now called Fraunhofer lines). His work with the spectra and also with diffraction gratings was seminal in the science of spectroscopy.

Strictly speaking, this law applies only to point-like objects. If the objects have spatial extent, the true force has to be found by integrating the forces between the various points.
