Did you perchance mean one of these? grim, gris, grise, grist
Definitions
Wiktionary
- n. A combination of diffraction grating and prism used to obtain spectra from different parts of an image
Etymologies
- From grating + prism (Wiktionary)
Examples
“Swift's Ultraviolet / Optical Telescope includes a device called a grism that can separate wavelengths in ultraviolet light in much the same way as a prism spreads sunlight into colors.”
“Light would come in from 640 quasars or stars or galaxies, be passed on through 640 optical fibers, sent to a combination of a diffraction grating and a prism—called a grism—which could fan the light out into 640 little spectral rainbows, which would register on the same-sized CCDs as in Jim’s camera.”
“The G102 grism on WFC3 was designed to extend this capability to search for Ly-alpha emission from the first galaxies.”
“The G102 grism on WFC3 was designed to extend this capability to search for”
“WFC3 camera with G141 grism provides the only way to confirm this record high-z cluster and measure its redshift from spectral breaks typical of old stellar populations.”
“We propose to obtain deep WFC3+G141 grism observations to spectroscopically confirm a remarkable z”
“We propose a slitless WFC3/G141 IR grism survey of GOODS-N, at 2 orbits/pointing.”
“A combined follow-up program will provide light curves and grism spectra of 15-20 of the best candidates at redshifts 1”
“Wavelength calibration of the UVIS G280 grism will be established using observations of the Wolf Rayet star WR14.”
