Depolarize :: Depolarize (v. t.) To free from polarization, as the negative plate of the voltaic battery..

Lima/on :: Lima/on (n.) A curve of the fourth degree, invented by Pascal. Its polar equation is r = a cos / + b..

Polarily :: Polarily (adv.) In a polary manner; with polarity.

Polariscopic :: Polariscopic (a.) Of or pertaining to the polariscope; obtained by the use of a polariscope; as, polariscopic observations..

Bipolar :: Bipolar (a.) Doubly polar; having two poles; as, a bipolar cell or corpuscle..

Inherent :: Inherent (a.) Permanently existing in something; inseparably attached or connected; naturally pertaining to; innate; inalienable; as, polarity is an inherent quality of the magnet; the inherent right of men to life, liberty, and protection..

Impolarly :: Impolarly (adv.) Not according to or in, the direction of the poles..

Iceland Spar :: Iceland spar () A transparent variety of calcite, the best of which is obtained in Iceland. It is used for the prisms of the polariscope, because of its strong double refraction. Cf. Calcite..

Isochromatic :: Isochromatic (a.) Having the same color; connecting parts having the same color, as lines drawn through certain points in experiments on the chromatic effects of polarized light in crystals..

Dextrose :: Dextrose (n.) A sirupy, or white crystalline, variety of sugar, C6H12O6 (so called from turning the plane of polarization to the right), occurring in many ripe fruits. Dextrose and levulose are obtained by the inversion of cane sugar or sucrose, and hence called invert sugar. Dextrose is chiefly obtained by the action of heat and acids on starch, and hence called also starch sugar. It is also formed from starchy food by the action of the amylolytic ferments of saliva and pancreatic juice..

Idiophanous :: Idiophanous (a.) Exhibiting interference figures without the aid of a polariscope, as certain crystals..

Differential :: Differential (n.) One of two coils of conducting wire so related to one another or to a magnet or armature common to both, that one coil produces polar action contrary to that of the other..

Polarization :: Polarization (n.) The act of polarizing; the state of being polarized, or of having polarity..

Polarity :: Polarity (n.) A property of the conic sections by virtue of which a given point determines a corresponding right line and a given right line determines a corresponding point. See Polar, n..

Polar :: Polar (a.) Of or pertaining to one of the poles of the earth, or of a sphere; situated near, or proceeding from, one of the poles; as, polar regions; polar seas; polar winds..

Pole :: Pole (n.) See Polarity, and Polar, n..

Polarized :: Polarized (imp. & p. p.) of Polariz.

Analyzer :: Analyzer (n.) The part of a polariscope which receives the light after polarization, and exhibits its properties..

Astatic :: Astatic (a.) Having little or no tendency to take a fixed or definite position or direction: thus, a suspended magnetic needle, when rendered astatic, loses its polarity, or tendency to point in a given direction..

Polarizer :: Polarizer (n.) That which polarizes; especially, the part of a polariscope which receives and polarizes the light. It is usually a reflecting plate, or a plate of some crystal, as tourmaline, or a doubly refracting crystal..
