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.
