ASTERISM |
An optical property of some crystals which exhibit a
star-shaped by reflected light, as star sapphire, or by transmitted

SHINE |
To make bright; to cause to shine by reflected light; as,
in hunting, to shine the eyes of a deer at night by throwing a light on
them. |
|
CATOPTRICS |
That part of optics which explains the properties and
phenomena of reflected light, and particularly that which is reflected
from mirrors or polished bodies; -- formerly called anacamptics. |
|
FOCUS |
A point in which the rays of light meet, after being
reflected or refrcted, and at which the image is formed; as, the focus
of a lens or mirror. |
