When a wave or light ray moves from one medium to another its speed changes. The direction of the ray may also change. This property of waves is called refraction and commonly occurs with light rays.

Light changes speed as it passes from one medium to another. This is called refraction. The frequency of light does not change as it refracts. The refractive index of a material is a measure of ...

Traditionally, atmospheric refraction is compensated for by an atmospheric dispersion ... we were able to reduce the initial residual atmospheric dispersion from 18.8 mas to 4.2 in broadband light (y- ...

If you’ve looked up at the night sky recently, you may have noticed some things that look a little out of the usual.
