Axial aberration occurs when different wavelengths of light are focused at different distances from the lens, i. e. different points on the optical axis ( focus shift ).

By the Iron Age, with the associated developments in religion ( the Axial Age ), human sacrifice was becoming less common throughout the Old World, and came to be widely looked down upon as barbaric already in pre-modern times ( Classical Antiquity ).

* Computed Tomography ( CT ), or Computed Axial Tomography ( CAT: A CT scan, also known as a CAT scan ), is a helical tomography ( latest generation ), which traditionally produces a 2D image of the structures in a thin section of the body.

Axial chirality is a special case of chirality in which a molecule does not possess a stereogenic center ( the most common form of chirality in organic compounds ) but an axis of chirality – an axis about which a set of substituents is held in a spatial arrangement that is not superposable on its mirror image.

Axial precession is the movement of the rotational axis of an astronomical body, whereby the axis slowly traces out a cone.

* Axial symmetries are those in which one transformation is applied on left-handed particles and the inverse on the right-handed particles.

* Axial myopia is attributed to an increase in the eye's axial length.

* Axial or front feed-This is the most common type of feed, with the feed antenna located in front of the dish at the focus, on the beam axis.

Axial loads may be hundreds of newtons force left or right, and it is typically acceptable for the wheel to wobble by as much as 10 mm under the varying load.

Axial symmetry is a characteristic of all major Timurid structures, notably the Shah-e Zendah in Samarkand and the mosque of Gowhar Shad in Mashhad.

Another type of reciprocating compressor is the swash plate compressor, which uses pistons which are moved by a swash plate mounted on a shaft-see Axial Piston Pump.

The word " Axial " is taken from the word " axis " and refers to the fact that the bones are located close to or along the central axis of the body.

In graphonomics, Axial pen force is the component of the normal pen force that is parallel to the pen.

Axial flow impellers impose essentially bulk motion, and are used on homogenization processes, in which increased fluid volumetric flow rate is important.

Axial punches are movable and their action is required to provide axial compression and to feed material towards the center of the bulging tube.

This problem is solved by reading other entries in the book, which quite explicitly specify that the Nile was low at 446. This year of the Muslim calendar ran from the 12th of April 1054 to the 1st of April 1055, which is compatible with the appearance of the star in July 1054, as its location ( admittedly rather vague ), is in the astrological sign of Gemini ( which, due to Axial precession, covers the eastern part of the Constellation Taurus ). The date of the event in 446 is harder to determine, but the reference to the level of the Nile refers to the period preceding its annual flood, which happens during the summer.

Axial ratio, for any structure or shape with two or more axes, is the ratio of the length ( or magnitude ) of those axes to each other-the longer axis divided by the shorter.

Axial chirality is most commonly observed in atropisomeric biaryl compounds wherein the rotation about the aryl-aryl bond is restricted, for example, biphenyl, binaphthyls, e. g., 1, 1 '- bi-2-naphthol, and certain dihydroanthracenone compounds.

The first CT system that could make images of any part of the body and did not require the " water tank " was the ACTA ( Automatic Computerized Transverse Axial ) scanner designed by Robert S. Ledley, DDS, at Georgetown University.

Denote the three vertices of one triangle by a, b, and c, and those of the other by A, B, and C. Axial perspectivity means that lines ab and AB meet in a point, lines ac and AC meet in a second point, and lines bc and BC meet in a third point, and that these three points all lie on a common line called the axis of perspectivity.

During the first servicing mission, in December 1993, it was replaced by the Corrective Optics Space Telescope Axial Replacement ( COSTAR ), which corrected the optical problem for the remaining instruments.

A novel narrated by the fictional grandson of Zoroaster in 445 BC, describing encounters with the central figures of the Axial Age during his travels.

Also in 2007, Axial Age ( 2005 – 2007 ), a monumental cycle of paintings, was shown for the first time at the 2007 Venice Biennale, with the wish explicitly expressed by the artist that the work should remain on display in Venice.

Axial compressors, known as superchargers, have also been used to boost the power of automotive reciprocating engines by compressing the intake air, though these are very rare.

This acronym stands for the Corrective Optics Space Telescope Axial Replacement system and the unit corrected HST's spherical aberration of the main mirror for all instruments except the WFPC-II camera, which had its own built-in corrective optics.

In recent years, a similar non-surgical procedure known as VAX-D ( short for Vertebral Axial Decompression ) has been developed for treating certain patients with lower back pain.

Axial compressors are widely used in gas turbines, such as jet engines, high speed ship engines, and small scale power stations.

Axial flow pumps have small diameters, but give relatively modest pressure increases, and multiple compression stages are needed, but work well with low density fluids.

Beginning in the 7th century BCE, the so-called " Axial Age " saw a set of transformative religious and philosophical ideas develop, mostly independently, in many different locations.

Axial compressors can have high efficiencies ; around 90 % polytropic at their design conditions.
