Difference between Star and Wavelength

Star vs. Wavelength

A star is type of astronomical object consisting of a luminous spheroid of plasma held together by its own gravity. In physics, the wavelength is the spatial period of a periodic wave—the distance over which the wave's shape repeats.

Similarities between Star and Wavelength

Star and Wavelength have 10 things in common (in Unionpedia): Electromagnetic radiation, Electromagnetic spectrum, Frequency, Interferometry, Magnetic field, Quantum mechanics, Refraction, Spectral line, Spectroscopy, Telescope.

Electromagnetic radiation

In physics, electromagnetic radiation (EM radiation or EMR) refers to the waves (or their quanta, photons) of the electromagnetic field, propagating (radiating) through space-time, carrying electromagnetic radiant energy.

Electromagnetic spectrum

The electromagnetic spectrum is the range of frequencies (the spectrum) of electromagnetic radiation and their respective wavelengths and photon energies.

Frequency

Frequency is the number of occurrences of a repeating event per unit of time.

Interferometry

Interferometry is a family of techniques in which waves, usually electromagnetic waves, are superimposed causing the phenomenon of interference in order to extract information.

Magnetic field

A magnetic field is a vector field that describes the magnetic influence of electrical currents and magnetized materials.

Quantum mechanics

Quantum mechanics (QM; also known as quantum physics, quantum theory, the wave mechanical model, or matrix mechanics), including quantum field theory, is a fundamental theory in physics which describes nature at the smallest scales of energy levels of atoms and subatomic particles.

Refraction

Refraction is the change in direction of wave propagation due to a change in its transmission medium.

Spectral line

A spectral line is a dark or bright line in an otherwise uniform and continuous spectrum, resulting from emission or absorption of light in a narrow frequency range, compared with the nearby frequencies.
