25
big bang theory
a theory that deduces a cataclysmic birth of the universe big bang from the observed expansion of the universe, cosmic background radiation abundance of the elements, and the laws of physics.
26
emission spectrom
the spectrum formed by electromagnetic radiations emitted by a given source characteristic of the source and the type of excitation inducing the radiations.
27
spectrometer
an optical device for measuring wavelengths deviation of refracted rays and angles between faces of a prism
28
wave length
the distance, measured in the direction of propagation of a wave between two successive points in the wave that are characterized by the same phase of oscillation.
29
Frequency
the state or fact of being frequent so a frequent occurrence
30
exspansion
the act or process of expanding-- getting larger
31
contraction
an act or instance of contracting.
32
galaxy
a large system of stars held together by mutual gravitation and isolated from similar systems by vast regions of space.
33
redshift
a shift toward longer wavelengths of the spectral lines emitted by a celestial object that is caused by the object moving away from the earth.
34
blue shift
a shift toward shorter wavelengths of the spectral lines of a celestial object caused by the motion of the object toward the observer.
35
doppler affect
the shift in frequency of acoustic or electromagnetic radiation emitted by a source moving relative to an observer as perceived by the observer: the shift is to higher frequencies when the source approaches and to lower frequencies when it recedes.
36
Gravitation
the force of attraction between any two masses.
37
Plasma
Anatomy Physiology the liquid part of blood or lymph as distinguished from the suspended elements.
38
Solar System
the sun together with all the planets and other bodies that revolve around it.
39
Absorption Spectrum
the spectrum formed by electromagnetic radiation that has passed through a medium in which radiation of certain frequencies is absorbed.
