What's the difference between achromaticity and achromatism?

Achromaticity


Definition:

  • (n.) Achromatism.

Example Sentences:

  • (1) When achromatic lesions were excluded from the analyses, these differences were not found.
  • (2) A dose-dependent increase in chromatid lesions, i.e., achromatic lesions, chromatid breaks, chromatid deletions and triradial or quandriradial chromosomal exchange fiqures, was found.
  • (3) Targets were presented on a low photopic achromatic background, so that the red and green targets differed from the background both in intensity and in wavelength, whereas the achromatic target differed in intensity only.
  • (4) Stimulus parameters were selected to isolate the chromatic and achromatic systems.
  • (5) We have examined the contribution of these pathways to achromatic visual capacities by behaviorally testing spatio-temporal vision in monkeys with severe damage to the P beta (medium cell) pathway.
  • (6) We conclude that, for stimuli of either achromatic or chromatic contrast, peripheral spatial resolution is limited by post-receptoral mechanisms.
  • (7) Patients with high-tension glaucoma showed significant losses in both chromatic and achromatic sensitivities when compared with low-tension glaucoma patients.
  • (8) For MWS and LWS cone isolation we used a 15 Hz flickering test light to isolate the achromatic channel, and we modelled the resulting spectral sensitivity functions as a linear sum of LWS and MWS input.
  • (9) Photopically equivalent achromatic and long-wavelength adapting fields induced comparable increases in flicker ERG amplitude, while scotopically equivalent adapting fields had considerably different effects.
  • (10) The spectrum of damage observed for both cell types was primarily achromatic lesions affecting one or both chromatids.
  • (11) Similarities were found between the post-receptoral properties of these achromats and the properties of the isolated blue mechanism of normal vision and also the properties of normal luminance contrast processing in general.
  • (12) The achromatic epithelial cells (AEC), whose cellular materials remain unstained by several stains, e. g., H.E, PAS, Alcian blue, Orange G Anilin blue and Mucicarmin, are detected in the intestinal mucous epithelium of the Iar: Wistar Imamichi rat from the 19th day of gestation to the 21st day after birth.
  • (13) This is This is attributed to disturbances of the achromatic apparatus that occur with increasing age.
  • (14) We measured both the wavelength of the spectral achromatic point over a large range of intensities and yellow-blue hue-cancellation functions over the full spectrum and at several luminance levels in protanopes and deuteranopes.
  • (15) The present observations provide evidence for a visual pathway in human cortex homologous to the magnocellular pathway in macaque, a pathway involved in processing the low-contrast, achromatic, and moving components of visual stimuli.
  • (16) As illumination level increased, the ability to discriminate wavelength differences deteriorated for the blue cone monochromats, whereas, for the deutan achromats, wavelength discrimination remained relatively constant even near 100,000 scotopic trolands.
  • (17) The interocular transfer of low-frequency adaptation in the achromat was 50%, which is the same value obtained at higher frequencies.
  • (18) Our results can be explained in terms of a low-frequency band that represents the opponent-color response, and a high-frequency band that represents the achromatic response.
  • (19) As a visual device, it permits easy identification of a set of achromatic fringes that can be seen in any two-beam interferometer when a white-light source is observed through it.
  • (20) In all patients melanocarcinoma was IV-V degree according to Crark as in 2 women it was pigmented, but in 2 women--achromatic.

Achromatism


Definition:

  • (n.) The state or quality of being achromatic; as, the achromatism of a lens; achromaticity.
