Goniometer
(gcide) | Goniometer \Go`ni*om"e*ter\, n. [Gr. ? angle + -meter: cf. F.
goniom[`e]tre.]
An instrument for measuring angles, especially the angles of
crystals, or the inclination of planes.
[1913 Webster]
Contact goniometer, or Hand goniometer, a goniometer
having two movable arms (ab, cd), between which (at ab)
the faces of the crystals are placed. These arms turn
about a fixed point, which is the center of the graduated
circle or semicircle upon which the angle is read off.
Reflecting goniometer, an instrument for measuring the
angles of crystals by determining through what angular
space the crystal must be turned so that two rays
reflected from two surfaces successively shall have the
same direction; -- called also Wollaston's goniometer,
from the inventor. Goniometric |

1. Throwing back light, heat, etc., as a mirror or other
surface.

contemplative; as, a reflecting mind.
[1913 Webster]
Reflecting circle, an astronomical instrument for measuring
angless, like the sextant or Hadley's quadrant, by the
reflection of light from two plane mirrors which it
carries, and differing from the sextant chiefly in having
an entire circle.
Reflecting galvanometer, a galvanometer in which the
deflections of the needle are read by means of a mirror
attached to it, which reflects a ray of light or the image
of a scale; -- called also mirror galvanometer.
Reflecting goniometer. See under Goniometer.
Reflecting telescope. See under Telescope.
