Spectrophobia Spectrophobia Spectrophobia (from Latin: "spectrum", n. specio, an appearance, form, image of a thing; an apparition, spectre) or catoptrophobia (from Greek κάτοπτρον "kátoptron", "mirror") is a kind of specific phobia involving a morbid fear of mirrors, sometimes related to the fear of ghosts or the undead. This phobia is distinct from eisoptrophobia, which is the fear of one's own reflection. Generally, an individual that deals with spectrophobia has been traumatized in an event where they believe they have seen or heard apparitions or ghosts. The individual could also become traumatized by horror films, television shows, or by nightmares. This fear
Irrational number then no integral power of it can be an integer, as in lowest terms there must be a prime in the denominator that does not divide into the numerator whatever power each is raised to. Therefore, if an integer is not an exact "k" power of another integer, then that first integer's "k" root is irrational. Perhaps the numbers most easy to prove irrational are certain logarithms. Here is a proof by contradiction that log 3 is irrational. Notice that log 3 ≈ 1.58 > 0. Assume log 3 is rational. For some positive integers "m" and "n", we have
