Difference between Calcite and Christiaan Huygens

Calcite vs. Christiaan Huygens

Calcite is a carbonate mineral and the most stable polymorph of calcium carbonate (CaCO3). Christiaan Huygens (Hugenius; 14 April 1629 – 8 July 1695) was a Dutch physicist, mathematician, astronomer and inventor, who is widely regarded as one of the greatest scientists of all time and a major figure in the scientific revolution.

Similarities between Calcite and Christiaan Huygens

Calcite and Christiaan Huygens have 4 things in common (in Unionpedia): Birefringence, Calcite, Iceland spar, Rasmus Bartholin.

Birefringence

Birefringence is the optical property of a material having a refractive index that depends on the polarization and propagation direction of light.
