    Daniel reported that 21 days after taking a picture of Dudley's skull (with an exposure time of one hour), he noticed a bald spot 5 centimeters (2 in) in diameter on the part of his head nearest the X-ray tube: "A plate holder with the plates towards the side of the skull was fastened and a coin placed between the skull and the head. The tube ...

    V-Ray is a biased computer-generated imagery rendering software application developed by Bulgarian software company Chaos. V-Ray is a commercial plug-in for third-party 3D computer graphics software applications and is used for visualizations and computer graphics in industries such as media, entertainment, film and video game production ...

  4. Radiography - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radiography

    Radiography is an imaging technique using X-rays, gamma rays, or similar ionizing radiation and non-ionizing radiation to view the internal form of an object. Applications of radiography include medical ("diagnostic" radiography and "therapeutic") and industrial radiography. Similar techniques are used in airport security, (where "body scanners ...

  5. Ray (optics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ray_(optics)

    In optics, a ray is an idealized geometrical model of light or other electromagnetic radiation, obtained by choosing a curve that is perpendicular to the wavefronts of the actual light, and that points in the direction of energy flow. [1] [2] Rays are used to model the propagation of light through an optical system, by dividing the real light ...

    Ray. (film) Ray is a 2004 American biographical musical drama film focusing on 30 years in the life of soul musician Ray Charles. [a] The independently produced film was co-produced and directed by Taylor Hackford; it was written by James L. White from a story by Hackford and White.

  7. X-ray crystallography - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/X-ray_crystallography

    X-ray crystallography is the experimental science of determining the atomic and molecular structure of a crystal, in which the crystalline structure causes a beam of incident X-rays to diffract in specific directions. By measuring the angles and intensities of the X-ray diffraction, a crystallographer can produce a three-dimensional picture of ...

  8. Radiochemistry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radiochemistry

    Radiochemistry is the chemistry of radioactive materials, where radioactive isotopes of elements are used to study the properties and chemical reactions of non-radioactive isotopes (often within radiochemistry the absence of radioactivity leads to a substance being described as being inactive as the isotopes are stable ).

  9. Solomonoff's theory of inductive inference - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solomonoff's_theory_of...

    Solomonoff's theory of inductive inference is a mathematical theory of induction introduced by Ray Solomonoff, based on probability theory and theoretical computer science. [1] [2] [3] In essence, Solomonoff's induction derives the posterior probability of any computable theory, given a sequence of observed data.
