| amplitude | 1. State of being ample; extent of surface or space; largeness of dimensions; size. "The cathedral of Lincoln . . . Is a magnificent structure, proportionable to the amplitude of the diocese." (Fuller) 2. Largeness, in a figurative sense; breadth; abundance; fullness. Of extent of capacity or intellectual powers. "Amplitude of mind." . "Amplitude of comprehension." . Of extent of means or resources. "Amplitude of reward." . 3. <astronomy> The arc of the horizon between the true east or west point and the center of the sun, or a star, at its rising or setting. At the rising, the amplitude is eastern or ortive: at the setting, it is western, occiduous, or occasive. It is also northern or southern, when north or south of the equator. The arc of the horizon between the true east or west point and the foot of the vertical circle passing through any star or object. 4. The horizontal line which measures the distance to which a projectile is thrown; the range. 5. <physics> The extent of a movement measured from the starting point or position of equilibrium; applied especially to vibratory movements. 6. <mathematics> An angle upon which the value of some function depends; a term used more especially in connection with elliptic functions. Magnetic amplitude, the angular distance of a heavenly body, when on the horizon, from the magnetic east or west point as indicated by the compass. The difference between the magnetic and the true or astronomical amplitude (see 3 above) is the "variation of the compass." Origin: L. Amplitudo, fr. Amplus: cf. F. Amplitude. See Ample.

| amplitude of accommodation | The difference in refractivity of the eye at rest and when fully accommodated. (05 Mar 2000) |
| amplitude of convergence | The distance between the near point and far point of convergence. Synonym: range of convergence. (05 Mar 2000) |
| amplitude of pulse | See: average pulse magnitude, peak magnitude. (05 Mar 2000) |
| phase-amplitude contrast | <microscopy> The separation and recombination of direct vs. Diffracted rays in a light microscope adjusted to Kohler illumination. at the lower focal plane of the condenser there is an annular diaphragm with an opaque central stop. Through this diaphragm rays are focused as a hollow cone onto the specimen. In the back focal plane of the objective there is a conjugate annular diaphragm (phase plate). If here the undiffracted rays are retarded (by a transparent film of proper thickness on the annulus of the phase plate), bright contrast results. If, instead, the phase-delay film is on the central spot, dark contrast results. With either a bright or a dark-contrast phase plate, the annulus is usually coated with a partially absorbing (very thin) film of silver (Zernike method) or carbon soot (Wilska method) to reduce the higher amplitude (intensity) of the undiffracted rays.

| minimal amplitude nystagmus | Nystagmus of so small an amplitude that it is not detected by the usual clinical tests. Synonym: minimal amplitude nystagmus. Origin: micro-+ G. Nystagmos, a nodding (05 Mar 2000) |
| half amplitude pulse duration | The time, in milliseconds, required for a wave form to reach half of its full magnitude. (05 Mar 2000) |
| tidal amplitude | The magnitude of the difference in elevation between low and high tides at a particular point in a body of water. (09 Oct 1997) |
| personal probability | An idiosyncratic judgment about the outcome of an event; it may include evidence too subtle to be disposed of in a subjective probability. (05 Mar 2000) |
| conditional probability | A probability quoted when the range of choices admitted is restricted, i.e., conditional; thus, the probability of the child of a colour-blind man inheriting the gene is 1/2 if the child is female and almost zero if the child is male. (05 Mar 2000) |
| positional probability | <chemistry> A type of probability that depends on the number of arrangements in space that yield a particular state. (09 Jan 1998) |
| posterior probability | The best rational assessment of the probability of an outcome on the basis of established knowledge modified and brought up to date. Compare: Bayes theorem. (05 Mar 2000) |
| prior probability | The best rational assessment of the probability of an outcome on the basis of established knowledge before the present information is included. For instance, the prior probability of the daughter of a carrier of haemophilia being herself haemophiliac is 1/2. But if she already has one child, an affected son, the posterior probability that she is a carrier is unity, whereas if she has one child, a normal one, the posterior probability that she is a carrier is 1/3. See: Bayes theorem. (05 Mar 2000) |
| probability | Origin: L. Probabilitas: cf. F. Probabilite. 1. The quality or state of being probable; appearance of reality or truth; reasonable ground of presumption; likelihood. "Probability is the appearance of the agreement or disagreement of two ideas, by the intervention of proofs whose connection is not constant, but appears for the most part to be so." (Locke) 2. That which is or appears probable; anything that has the appearance of reality or truth. "The whole life of man is a perpetual comparison of evidence and balancing of probabilities." (Buckminster) "We do not call for evidence till antecedent probabilities fail." (J. H. Newman) 3. <mathematics> Likelihood of the occurrence of any event in the doctrine of chances, or the ratio of the number of favorable chances to the whole number of chances, favorable and unfavorable. See 1st Chance. Synonym: Likeliness, credibleness, likelihood, chance. Source: Websters Dictionary (01 Mar 1998) |
| probability curve | A graph of the gaussian (normal) distribution representing relative probabilities. (05 Mar 2000) |
