White surface

In algebraic geometry, a White surface is one of the rational surfaces in Pn studied by , generalizing cubic surfaces and Bordiga surfaces, which are the cases n = 3 or 4. A White surface in Pn is given by the embedding of P2 blown up in n(n + 1)/2 points by the linear system of degree n curves through these points. (Wikipedia).

AMAZING RAINBOWS FROM CD SURFACE (EXPLAINED)!!!

The white light from sun reflects on the surface of the cd and, due to diffraction (at the cd diffraction grating), the light spreads and interference to the wall. Each color of white light has a different wavelength for this and is analyzed in the colors the rainbow.

The Color White Does NOT Exist

Color is a property that belongs to light (i.e. electromagnetic waves). We only think objects are colored because of the light they reflect and scatter. In fact, some of the colors you see are an illusion created by your eyes and brain. What colors are real and which ones are fake? Let's f

Colored Shadows Exhibit I Exploratorium

Not all shadows are black. Red, green, and blue lights shine on this wall, combining to make white. As you move in front of the wall, your body can block one, two, or all three of the lights, resulting in shadows of various colors.
