What's the difference between actinometer and actinometric?

Actinometer


Definition:

  • (n.) An instrument for measuring the direct heating power of the sun's rays.
  • (n.) An instrument for measuring the actinic effect of rays of light.

Example Sentences:

  • (1) The quantum yield of the primary photoprocess in light-adapted bacteriorhodopsin (phi 1) was determined at room temperature with low-intensity 530 nm neodymium laser excitation, with bovine rhodopsin as a relative actinometer.
  • (2) The irradiation dose was determined by a modified potassium ferrioxalate actinometer according to Calvert and Pitts.
  • (3) The radiation in the visible and ultraviolet regions from submerged, transient electrical arcs was measured with a K(3)Fe(C(2)O(4))(3) chemical actinometer and was compared to the bactericidal effect obtained with the same electrical arrangements.

Actinometric


Definition:

  • (a.) Pertaining to the measurement of the intensity of the solar rays, either (a) heating, or (b) actinic.

Example Sentences:

  • (1) A quantum yield phi of photooxidation of perazine derivatives estimated actinometrically and the pKa, values were used for the correlation with the substituent volumes.
  • (2) The UV disinfection of E. coli was carried out and additionally an actinometric determination of the irradiation intensity was made.
