Optical Properties of Hydrocerussite
Gladstone-Dale:
CI meas= -0.018 (Superior) - where the CI = (1-KPDmeas/KC) CI calc= -0.012 (Superior) - where the CI = (1-KPDcalc/KC)
KPDcalc= 0.1484,KPDmeas= 0.1493,KC= 0.1467 Ncalc = 2
Optical Data:
Uniaxial (-), e=1.94, w=2.09, bire=0.1500.
Calculated Properties of Hydrocerussite
Electron Density:
Bulk Density (Electron Density)=5.71 gm/cc note: Specific Gravity of Hydrocerussite =6.84 gm/cc.
Fermion Index:
Fermion Index = 0.17 Boson Index = 0.83
Photoelectric:
PEHydrocerussite =1,472.61 barns/electron U=PEHydrocerussite x rElectron Density=8,415.16 barns/cc.
Radioactivity:
GRapi = 0 (Gamma Ray American Petroleum Institute Units) Hydrocerussite is Not Radioactive
