Calibrating the elements of a multispectral imaging system [PDF]
, 2009 We describe a method to calibrate the elements of a multispectral system aimed at skylight imaging, which consists of a monochrome charge-coupled device (CCD) camera and a liquid-crystal tunable filter (LCTF).

Tyndall, Rayleigh, Mei, and Raman scattering: Understanding their role in aesthetics
Journal of Cosmetic Dermatology, Volume 23, Issue 11, Page 3493-3496, November 2024.Abstract The role of various light scattering phenomena in aesthetics and clinical practice is explored in this review. Four main types of light scattering, Tyndall, Rayleigh, Mie, and Raman, are discussed. Each type is explained in terms of its physical principles and its applications in aesthetic medicine.

Polarizing optics in a spider eye [PDF]
, 2018 Many arthropods including insects and spiders exploit skylight polarization for navigation. One of the four eye pairs of the spider Drassodes cupreus is dedicated to detect skylight polarization. These eyes are equipped with a tapetum that strongly plane-

The Plant Journal, Volume 120, Issue 4, Page 1563-1576, November 2024.Significance Statement We found that the all‐day number of pollinators (predominantly bees) attracted to model and real sunflowers in Helianthus annuus plantations is independent of the azimuth direction of sunflower heads. After 10 h in the morning, the average number of pollinators counted every 20 min is practically constant for the rest of the day.

A review on the current status of dye‐sensitized solar cells: Toward sustainable energy
Energy Science &Engineering, Volume 12, Issue 8, Page 3188-3226, August 2024.The main components of dye‐sensitized solar cells. Abstract Dye‐sensitized solar cells (DSSCs) are among the most attractive third‐generation photovoltaic technologies due to their low toxicity, versatility, roll‐to‐roll compatibility, ultralightness, and attractive power conversion efficiencies (PCEs).

A conceptual framework on the role of magnetic cues in songbird migration ecology
Biological Reviews, Volume 99, Issue 4, Page 1576-1593, August 2024.ABSTRACT Migrating animals perform astonishing seasonal movements by orienting and navigating over thousands of kilometres with great precision. Many migratory species use cues from the sun, stars, landmarks, olfaction and the Earth's magnetic field for this task. Among vertebrates, songbirds are the most studied taxon in magnetic‐cue‐related research.

Optimizing the use of a sensor resource for opponent polarization coding [PDF]
, 2017 Flies use specialized photoreceptors R7 and R8 in the dorsal rim area (DRA) to detect skylight polarization. R7 and R8 form a tiered waveguide (central rhabdomere pair, CRP) with R7 on top, filtering light delivered to R8.

Methods in Ecology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 4, Page 701-715, April 2024.Abstract Moonlight exerts profound ecological, behavioural and physiological effects on animals. However, lunar cycles are characterised by complex changes in the illuminance and timing of illumination, making it challenging to re‐create and manipulate moonlight cycles in the laboratory using artificial lights.
