Light refraction
Refraction. Computer artwork of white light being refracted as it passes through an equilateral triangular prism. Light changes direction, or is refracted, when it meets a different transparent medium such as a prism. An equilateral triangular prism disperses the white light into its component colours, producing the colour spectrum

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from Science Photo Library showcases the mesmerizing phenomenon of light refraction. In this computer artwork, we witness the enchanting transformation of white light as it passes through an equilateral triangular prism. As the light encounters this transparent medium, its direction is altered, creating a stunning display of refracted beams. The prism acts as a catalyst for change, dispersing the white light into its magnificent component colors and unveiling the vibrant color spectrum. This awe-inspiring illustration beautifully captures how physics and optics intertwine to produce such a breathtaking visual spectacle. Through meticulous attention to detail in their computer artwork, Science Photo Library brings forth an image that not only educates but also captivates viewers with its sheer beauty. The play between light and prism serves as a reminder of nature's ability to surprise us with its intricate mechanisms. As we delve deeper into understanding the science behind refraction and dispersion, this image becomes more than just art; it becomes a gateway to exploring concepts like optical benches and the speed of light. It invites us to marvel at both the simplicity and complexity found within our natural world. Science Photo Library once again demonstrates their expertise in capturing scientific wonders through visually striking images that ignite curiosity while celebrating nature's inherent magnificence.
