Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS), according to a definition on the Mayo Clinic website, is the unexplained death, usually during sleep, of a seemingly healthy baby less than a year old.. The cause is still unknown, but it does not appear to be suffocation, according to the SIDS Network.
Albedo (/Ã¦lËbiËdoÊ/) is a measure for reflectance or optical brightness (Latin albedo, whiteness). It is dimensionless and measured on a scale from zero (corresponding to a black body that absorbs all incident radiation) to one (corresponding to a white body that reflects all incident radiation).
A perfect reflector such as a mirror would have an albedo of 100, the moon has an albedo of 7, and the Earth has an albedo of 36. Angstrom unit Unit used to measure the wavelength of light, and other electromagnetic radiation.
