Dispersion, in physics, is the result of light refracting in a material. The different wavelengths of light will "bend" at different angles depending on their wavelength. As the refracted light approaches a critical angle at which all the light will be reflected instead of passing through the material the maximum amount bend that the light can achieve occurs. At this point the human eye can begin to perceive the different bends that each color experiences in the material.
Dispersion, in statistics, is the extent to which values of a variable differ from a fixed value such as the mean.

What is the difference between Dispersion and Skewness?
distinguish between dispersion and skewness
What is dispersion and various measures of dispersion?
Dispersion is the act of spreading people or things (like seeds) out over a large area. Measures of dispersion tell us the degree of variation of values in a sample or population.
What is natural dispersion?
Dense smoke from a forest fire - would disperse in the atmosphere. This would be an example of natural dispersion
What is difference between absolute measure of dispersion and relative measures of dispersion?
The Absolute Measure of dispersion is basically the measure of variation from the mean such as standard deviation. On the other hand the relative measure of dispersion is basically the position of a certain variable with reference to or as compared with the other variables. Such as the percentiles or the z-score.
Why do you measure dispersion?
How do we calculate variance
How does dispersion affect optical fiber?
Dispersion affects optical fibers in the sense that dispersion causes a disruption in the frequency of lights waves and can focus the wavelength nature of light.
What phenomenon causes of visible light to be separated by a prism?
Dispersion
What causes dispersion of white light?

What causes Brownian motions in colloids?
molecules of the dispersion medium colliding with dispersed phase particles.
What causes brownian in colloids?
molecules of the dispersion medium colliding with dispersed phase particles.
What causes the bownian motions in a colliod?
molecules of the dispersion medium colliding with dispersed phase particles
Time dispersion and frequency dispersion parameters of a mobile multipath channel?
Time dispersion is another problem relating to multiple paths to the RX antenna of either MS or BTS.Time dispersion causes inter symbol interference where consecutive symbols (bits)interfere with each other making it difficult for the receiver, which bits is correct one
What are types of dispersion?
the three types of dispersion are: 1. Intermodal Dispersion 2. Chromatic Dispersion 3. Waveguide Dispersion
What are the types of dispersion compensation?
the three types of dispersion are: 1. Intermodal Dispersion 2. Chromatic Dispersion 3. Waveguide Dispersion
The arrangement of individuals within a given amount of space?
The manner in which members of a population are arranged in a particular area is know as dispersion. There are three main kinds of dispersion, which are clumped dispersion, random dispersion, and uniform dispersion.
What are the different types of dispersion halos?
Primary dispersion halo and secondary dispersion halo.
Is jelly an example of emulsions?
No, for jellies, dispersion phase is liquid and dispersion medium is solid. And for emulsions,both dispersion phase and dispersion medium is liquid.
