Telescope \Tel"e*scope\, n. [Gr. [?] viewing afar, farseeing;       [?] far, far off + [?] a watcher, akin to [?] to view: cf. F.       t[82]lescope. See {Telegraph}, and {-scope}.]       An optical instrument used in viewing distant objects, as the       heavenly bodies.          Note: A telescope assists the eye chiefly in two ways; first,                by enlarging the visual angle under which a distant                object is seen, and thus magnifying that object; and,                secondly, by collecting, and conveying to the eye, a                larger beam of light than would enter the naked organ,                thus rendering objects distinct and visible which would                otherwise be indistinct and or invisible. Its essential                parts are the object glass, or concave mirror, which                collects the beam of light, and forms an image of the                object, and the eyeglass, which is a microscope, by                which the image is magnified.          {Achromatic telescope}. See under {Achromatic}.          {Aplanatic telescope}, a telescope having an aplanatic             eyepiece.          {Astronomical telescope}, a telescope which has a simple             eyepiece so constructed or used as not to reverse the             image formed by the object glass, and consequently             exhibits objects inverted, which is not a hindrance in             astronomical observations.          {Cassegrainian telescope}, a reflecting telescope invented by             Cassegrain, which differs from the Gregorian only in             having the secondary speculum convex instead of concave,             and placed nearer the large speculum. The Cassegrainian             represents objects inverted; the Gregorian, in their             natural position. The Melbourne telescope (see Illust.             under {Reflecting telescope}, below) is a Cassegrainian             telescope.          {Dialytic telescope}. See under {Dialytic}.          {Equatorial telescope}. See the Note under {Equatorial}.          {Galilean telescope}, a refracting telescope in which the             eyeglass is a concave instead of a convex lens, as in the             common opera glass. This was the construction originally             adopted by Galileo, the inventor of the instrument. It             exhibits the objects erect, that is, in their natural             positions.          {Gregorian telescope}, a form of reflecting telescope. See             under {Gregorian}.          {Herschelian telescope}, a reflecting telescope of the form             invented by Sir William Herschel, in which only one             speculum is employed, by means of which an image of the             object is formed near one side of the open end of the             tube, and to this the eyeglass is applied directly.          {Newtonian telescope}, a form of reflecting telescope. See             under {Newtonian}.          {Photographic telescope}, a telescope specially constructed             to make photographs of the heavenly bodies.          {Prism telescope}. See {Teinoscope}.          {Reflecting telescope}, a telescope in which the image is             formed by a speculum or mirror (or usually by two             speculums, a large one at the lower end of the telescope,             and the smaller one near the open end) instead of an             object glass. See {Gregorian, Cassegrainian, Herschelian,             [and] Newtonian, telescopes}, above.          {Refracting telescope}, a telescope in which the image is             formed by refraction through an object glass.          {Telescope carp} (Zo[94]l.), the telescope fish.          {Telescope fish} (Zo[94]l.), a monstrous variety of the             goldfish having very protuberant eyes.          {Telescope fly} (Zo[94]l.), any two-winged fly of the genus             {Diopsis}, native of Africa and Asia. The telescope flies             are remarkable for having the eyes raised on very long             stalks.          {Telescope shell} (Zo[94]l.), an elongated gastropod             ({Cerithium telescopium}) having numerous flattened             whorls.          {Telescope sight} (Firearms), a slender telescope attached to             the barrel, having cross wires in the eyepiece and used as             a sight.          {Terrestrial telescope}, a telescope whose eyepiece has one             or two lenses more than the astronomical, for the purpose             of inverting the image, and exhibiting objects erect.

Refraction \Re*frac"tion\ (r?*fr?k"sh?n), n. [F. r[82]fraction.]       1. The act of refracting, or the state of being refracted.          2. The change in the direction of ray of light, heat, or the             like, when it enters obliquely a medium of a different             density from that through which it has previously moved.                         Refraction out of the rarer medium into the denser,                      is made towards the perpendicular.      --Sir I.                                                                               Newton.          3. (Astron.)             (a) The change in the direction of a ray of light, and,                   consequently, in the apparent position of a heavenly                   body from which it emanates, arising from its passage                   through the earth's atmosphere; -- hence distinguished                   as atmospheric refraction, or astronomical refraction.             (b) The correction which is to be deducted from the                   apparent altitude of a heavenly body on account of                   atmospheric refraction, in order to obtain the true                   altitude.          {Angle of refraction} (Opt.), the angle which a refracted ray             makes with the perpendicular to the surface separating the             two media traversed by the ray.          {Conical refraction} (Opt.), the refraction of a ray of light             into an infinite number of rays, forming a hollow cone.             This occurs when a ray of light is passed through crystals             of some substances, under certain circumstances. Conical             refraction is of two kinds; external conical refraction,             in which the ray issues from the crystal in the form of a             cone, the vertex of which is at the point of emergence;             and internal conical refraction, in which the ray is             changed into the form of a cone on entering the crystal,             from which it issues in the form of a hollow cylinder.             This singular phenomenon was first discovered by Sir W. R.             Hamilton by mathematical reasoning alone, unaided by             experiment.          {Differential refraction} (Astron.), the change of the             apparent place of one object relative to a second object             near it, due to refraction; also, the correction required             to be made to the observed relative places of the two             bodies.          {Double refraction} (Opt.), the refraction of light in two             directions, which produces two distinct images. The power             of double refraction is possessed by all crystals except             those of the isometric system. A uniaxial crystal is said             to be optically positive (like quartz), or optically             negative (like calcite), or to have positive, or negative,             double refraction, according as the optic axis is the axis             of least or greatest elasticity for light; a biaxial             crystal is similarly designated when the same relation             holds for the acute bisectrix.          {Index of refraction}. See under {Index}.          {Refraction circle} (Opt.), an instrument provided with a             graduated circle for the measurement of refraction.          {Refraction of latitude}, {longitude}, {declination}, {right       ascension}, etc., the change in the apparent latitude,             longitude, etc., of a heavenly body, due to the effect of             atmospheric refraction.          {Terrestrial refraction}, the change in the apparent altitude             of a distant point on or near the earth's surface, as the             top of a mountain, arising from the passage of light from             it to the eye through atmospheric strata of varying             density.

Fault \Fault\, n.       1. (Elec.) A defective point in an electric circuit due to a             crossing of the parts of the conductor, or to contact with             another conductor or the earth, or to a break in the             circuit.          2. (Geol. & Mining) A dislocation caused by a slipping of             rock masses along a plane of facture; also, the dislocated             structure resulting from such slipping.          Note: The surface along which the dislocated masses have                moved is called the          {fault plane}. When this plane is vertical, the fault is a          {vertical fault}; when its inclination is such that the             present relative position of the two masses could have             been produced by the sliding down, along the fault plane,             of the mass on its upper side, the fault is a          {normal}, [or] {gravity}, {fault}. When the fault plane is so             inclined that the mass on its upper side has moved up             relatively, the fault is then called a          {reverse} (or {reversed}), {thrust}, or {overthrust},       {fault}. If no vertical displacement has resulted, the fault             is then called a          {horizontal fault}. The linear extent of the dislocation             measured on the fault plane and in the direction of             movement is the          {displacement}; the vertical displacement is the          {throw}; the horizontal displacement is the          {heave}. The direction of the line of intersection of the             fault plane with a horizontal plane is the          {trend} of the fault. A fault is a          {strike fault} when its trend coincides approximately with             the strike of associated strata (i.e., the line of             intersection of the plane of the strata with a horizontal             plane); it is a          {dip fault} when its trend is at right angles to the strike;             an          {oblique fault} when its trend is oblique to the strike.             Oblique faults and dip faults are sometimes called          {cross faults}. A series of closely associated parallel             faults are sometimes called          {step faults} and sometimes          {distributive faults}.

Fault \Fault\, n.       1. (Elec.) A defective point in an electric circuit due to a             crossing of the parts of the conductor, or to contact with             another conductor or the earth, or to a break in the             circuit.          2. (Geol. & Mining) A dislocation caused by a slipping of             rock masses along a plane of facture; also, the dislocated             structure resulting from such slipping.          Note: The surface along which the dislocated masses have                moved is called the          {fault plane}. When this plane is vertical, the fault is a          {vertical fault}; when its inclination is such that the             present relative position of the two masses could have             been produced by the sliding down, along the fault plane,             of the mass on its upper side, the fault is a          {normal}, [or] {gravity}, {fault}. When the fault plane is so             inclined that the mass on its upper side has moved up             relatively, the fault is then called a          {reverse} (or {reversed}), {thrust}, or {overthrust},       {fault}. If no vertical displacement has resulted, the fault             is then called a          {horizontal fault}. The linear extent of the dislocation             measured on the fault plane and in the direction of             movement is the          {displacement}; the vertical displacement is the          {throw}; the horizontal displacement is the          {heave}. The direction of the line of intersection of the             fault plane with a horizontal plane is the          {trend} of the fault. A fault is a          {strike fault} when its trend coincides approximately with             the strike of associated strata (i.e., the line of             intersection of the plane of the strata with a horizontal             plane); it is a          {dip fault} when its trend is at right angles to the strike;             an          {oblique fault} when its trend is oblique to the strike.             Oblique faults and dip faults are sometimes called          {cross faults}. A series of closely associated parallel             faults are sometimes called          {step faults} and sometimes          {distributive faults}.

From Webster's Revised Unabridged Dictionary (1913) [web1913]:
Fault \Fault\, n.       1. (Elec.) A defective point in an electric circuit due to a             crossing of the parts of the conductor, or to contact with             another conductor or the earth, or to a break in the             circuit.          2. (Geol. & Mining) A dislocation caused by a slipping of             rock masses along a plane of facture; also, the dislocated             structure resulting from such slipping.          Note: The surface along which the dislocated masses have                moved is called the          {fault plane}. When this plane is vertical, the fault is a          {vertical fault}; when its inclination is such that the             present relative position of the two masses could have             been produced by the sliding down, along the fault plane,             of the mass on its upper side, the fault is a          {normal}, [or] {gravity}, {fault}. When the fault plane is so             inclined that the mass on its upper side has moved up             relatively, the fault is then called a          {reverse} (or {reversed}), {thrust}, or {overthrust},       {fault}. If no vertical displacement has resulted, the fault             is then called a          {horizontal fault}. The linear extent of the dislocation             measured on the fault plane and in the direction of             movement is the          {displacement}; the vertical displacement is the          {throw}; the horizontal displacement is the          {heave}. The direction of the line of intersection of the             fault plane with a horizontal plane is the          {trend} of the fault. A fault is a          {strike fault} when its trend coincides approximately with             the strike of associated strata (i.e., the line of             intersection of the plane of the strata with a horizontal             plane); it is a          {dip fault} when its trend is at right angles to the strike;             an          {oblique fault} when its trend is oblique to the strike.             Oblique faults and dip faults are sometimes called          {cross faults}. A series of closely associated parallel             faults are sometimes called          {step faults} and sometimes          {distributive faults}.

From The Free On-line Dictionary of Computing (15Feb98) [foldoc]:
refresh rate          (Or "vertical refresh rate", "vertical scan rate")       The maximum number of {frames} that can be displayed on a       {monitor} in a second, expressed in {Hertz}.          The scan rate is controlled by the vertical sync signal       generated by the {video controller}, ordering the monitor to       position the {electron gun} at the upper left corner of the       {raster}, ready to paint another frame.   It is limited by the       monitor's maximum {horizontal scan rate} and the {resolution},       since higher resolution means more {scan lines}.   Increasing       the refresh rate decreases flickering, reducing eye strain,       but few people notice any change above 60-72 Hz.          (1999-08-01)

Reverse Address Resolution Protocol          (RARP) A {protocol} defined in {RFC       903} which provides the reverse function of {ARP}.   RARP maps       a hardware address ({MAC address}) to an {Internet address}.       It is used primarily by {diskless nodes}, when they first       initialise, to find their {Internet address}.          See also {BOOTP}.          (1994-12-08)

From The Free On-line Dictionary of Computing (15Feb98) [foldoc]:
reverse engineering          The process of analysing an existing       system to identify its components and their interrelationships       and create representations of the system in another form or at       a higher level of abstraction.   Reverse engineering is usually       undertaken in order to redesign the system for better       maintainability or to produce a copy of a system without       access to the design from which it was originally produced.          For example, one might take the {executable} code of a       computer program, run it to study how it behaved with       different input and then attempt to write a program oneself       which behaved identically (or better).   An {integrated       circuit} might also be reverse engineered by an unscrupulous       company wishing to make unlicensed copies of a popular chip.          (1995-10-06)
