Atmospheric Optics
“Light playing on water drops, dust or ice crystals in the atmosphere produces a host of visual
spectacles - rainbows, halos, glories, coronas and many more. Some can be seen
almost every day or so, some are once in a lifetime sights. Find out where to
see them and how they form. Then seek and enjoy them outdoors.”

Doug Craigen’s Physics Pages
“Hi, I'm Doug Craigen (aka "DC") - a former Acadia University physics professor (I've also taught at the University of Winnipeg). I began making web pages about physics in the mid-90's. Some of these grew very popular-particularly the humor and lists of textbook errata. However, the time has come to rethink my physics pages. DC Physics represents their next evolution. DC Physics is located on my company (DC Tech) web site so that the URL will stop jumping around the way the old ones did as my ISP kept getting bought out by one company after another. “ A student help page from the same person:
