A class of reflecting telescope developed by Sir Isaac Newton with a paraboloidal primary mirror and a small, plane secondary mirror at 45' to deflect the focus of the primary to a position outside the tube near the top of the telescope
a follower of Isaac Newton
A type of telescope using a front surfaced parabolic mirror to collect light and bring to a focal point for examination by the observer Named after Sir Isaac Newton the British theorist
adj Pertaining to a philosophy of the universe invented by Newton, who discovered that an apple will fall to the ground, but was unable to say why His successors and disciples have advanced so far as to be able to say when

Usually refers to a type of reflecting telescope based on a parabolic mirror First invented by Sir Isaac Newton in 1668 Newtonian telescopes are the most common types used for amateur astronomy
Of or pertaining to Sir Isaac Newton, or his discoveries
of or relating to or inspired by Sir Isaac Newton or his science; "Newtonian physics"
A Newtonian fluid is a viscous fluid whose shear stresses are a linear function of the fluid strain rate Mathematically, this can be expressed as: tij = Kijqp*Dpq, where tij is the shear stress component, and Dpq are fluid strain rate components
A follower of Newton
a follower of Isaac Newton of or relating to or inspired by Sir Isaac Newton or his science; "Newtonian physics
Newtonian fluid
a fluid whose stress at each point is linearly proportional to the strain rate at that point
Newtonian mechanics
early classical mechanics as propounded by Isaac Newton, especially that based on his laws of motion and theory of gravity
Newtonian telescope
{i} reflecting telescope invented by Sir Isaac Newton in which a mirror is fixed on the axis close to the eyepiece so the image is viewed from outside the telescope tube perpendicular to main axis
newtonian telescope
reflecting telescope in which the image is viewed through an eyepiece perpendicular to main axis
modified Newtonian dynamics
A proposed extension to Newtonian dynamics that would obviate the need to assume the presence of dark matter
non-Newtonian fluid
a fluid whose stress at each point is not linearly proportional to the strain rate at that point; i.e. its viscosity depends on the applied shear force
