A telescope that uses as its primary optical element a mirror Nearly all large telescopes in use today by amateur and professional astronomers are reflecting telescopes
{i} person or thing which reflects; telescope that uses concave mirrors to focus; material used to inhibit the escape of neutrons from the core of a reactor (Physics)
This is the part of the Earth Station Antenna which "bounces" the RF signal into the feed Most typical reflectors are parabolic dishes, and are usually referred to as dishes or antennas Originally antennas were made large, on the order of 32 meters in diameter, but there is a trend toward smaller and smaller diameter antennas Since most operating parameters for Earth Stations are functions of the diameter of the antenna, it is the most important parameter
Any material or surface that reflects light Reflectors are often used in photography to soften the effect of the main light or to bounce illumination into subjects shadows
An optical device to reflect light PHOTO-OPTIC reflector lamps utilize ellipsoidal (converging light rays) or parabolic (collimating light rays) reflectors Dichroic coated reflectors are designed to reflect visible light and pass through unwanted infrared wavelengths
optical telescope consisting of a large concave mirror that produces an image that is magnified by the eyepiece; "Isaac Newton invented the reflecting telescope in 1668"
An object used as an identifiable artificial landmark which causes reflected radiation to return along paths parallel to those of their corresponding incident rays
1)A reflective surface, such as a piece of white cardboard, that can be positioned to redirect light, especially into shadow areas Also called a flat 2) A reflective surface, often bowl-shaped, that is placed behind a lamp to direct more light form the lamp toward the subject
Any surface from which light can be reflected In particular white cardboard or similar material, used to reflect light from a main source into shadow areas
1 In general, any object that reflects incident energy; usually it is a device designed for specific reflection characteristics See retroreflector, corner reflector, parabolic reflector, radar reflector
1 ) A reflective surface, such as a piece of white cardboard, that can be positioned to redirect length, especially into shadow areas Also called a flat 2 ) A reflective surface, often bowl-shaped, that is placed behind a lamp to direct more light from the lamp toward the subject
A reflector is a small piece of specially patterned glass or plastic which is fitted to the back of a bicycle or car or to a post beside the road, and which glows when light shines on it
