2: Sidebar 9.SB1: Supernumerary Rainbows
Airy invented his function in 1838 precisely to describe this phenomenon more accurately than Young had done in 1800 when pointing out that supernumerary rainbows require the wave theory of light and are impossible to explain with Newton’s picture of light as a stream of independent corpuscles. The house in the picture is Newton’s birthplace. …

5: About the Project
These products resulted from the leadership of the Editors and Associate Editors pictured in Figure 1; the contributions of 29 authors, 10 validators, and 5 principal developers; and assistance from a large group of contributing developers, consultants, assistants and interns. …
6: 18.39 Applications in the Physical Sciences
A relativistic treatment becoming necessary as Z becomes large as corrections to the non-relativistic Schrödinger picture are of approximate order ( α Z ) 2 ( Z / 137 ) 2 , α being the dimensionless fine structure constant e 2 / ( 4 π ε 0 c ) , where c is the speed of light. …
7: Errata
  • Figures 36.3.9, 36.3.10, 36.3.11, 36.3.12

    Scales were corrected in all figures. The interval 8.4 x y 2 8.4 was replaced by 12.0 x y 2 12.0 and 12.7 x + y 2 4.2 replaced by 18.0 x + y 2 6.0 . All plots and interactive visualizations were regenerated to improve image quality.
