| or influence is effective regardless of the presence or absence of a material | |||
| medium; | |||
| quantize (v) - | 1) (physics) form into quanta, in particular restrict the number of possible values of | ||
| (a quantity) or states of (a system) so that certain variables can assume only | |||
| certain discrete magnitudes. | |||
| 2) (electronics) approximate (a continuously varying signal) by one whose | |||
| amplitude is restricted to a prescribed set of values; | |||
| bound (adj) - | tied with rope, cord, string, etc.; | ||
| spectrum (n) - | the set of colours into which a beam of light can be separated, or a range of | ||
| waves, such as light waves or radio waves; | |||
| ultraviolet (adj) - | (of light) having a wavelength which is after the violet (= light purple) end of the | ||
| range of colours that can be seen by humans; | |||
| infrared (adj) - | having a wavelength just greater than that of the red end of the visible light | ||
| spectrum but less than that of microwaves; | |||
| radiation (n) - | energy from heat or light that you cannot see; | ||
| detect (v) - | to notice something that is partly hidden or not clear, or to discover something, | ||

| (as in a telescope); | |||
| arbitrary (adj) - | 1) based on random choice or personal whim, rather than any reason or system; | ||
| 2) (math) (of a constant or other quantity) of unspecified value; | |||
| fiber (n) - | 1) any of the thread-like parts which form plant or artificial material and which can | ||
| be made into cloth; | |||
| 2) threads when they are in a mass that can be used for making products such as | |||
| cloth and rope; | |||
| transducer (n) - | any electronic device that changes one form of energy into another, such as a | ||
