11. But the believers in Wimps took the radical view that these exotic particles, which would neither emit nor absorb light, accounted for most of the dark matter. 12. Chlorine bleach contains sodium hypochlorite, a chemical that destroys the bonds that normally absorb light in colored items. 13. Extreme ultraviolet light is absorbed by all materials, so the process uses reflective rather than transmissive materials, which are used in the current technology. 14. For example, some substance absorbs ultraviolet light, and scientists have been unable to figure out what it is. 15. Frank Tomkins and Wllliam Garton at the Argonne National Laboratory near Chicago were investigating how light is absorbed as it shines through a bottle of barium gas. 16. Guys like Loville are black holes, barely noticed, absorbing light rather than emitting it. 17. How do the proteins in light tweak the chlorophyll so it absorbs light at the available wavelengths rather than at wavelengths the algae have already grabbed? 18. How will urban areas absorb a light that was developed to overcome the darkness of the autobahn and interstate? 19. If we get too much sun, our bodies make a dark pigment in the skin called melanin, which absorbs light and helps protect us from getting burnt. 20. In conventional photographs, the silver particles are embedded in the paper and absorb light. |
