Tools of Digital Gemology: gem identification and gemstone properties
Read-only
Idempotent
Open world
absorption_spectrumWhat a hand spectroscope shows for one gemstone: each absorption line and band with its position in nanometres, its cause (for example Cr3+ in ruby) and what it looks like, from Digital Gemology's Spectroscope or, for the stones it does not model, published references.NoYesYesNo
compare_gemstonesTwo gemstones side by side, and the tests that tell them apart: refractive index, birefringence (doubling of back facets, polariscope), specific gravity, dispersion (fire), hardness, pleochroism and spectrum, each with the free tool that shows it. For questions like 'how do I tell diamond from moissanite?'.NoYesYesNo
gem_propertiesEverything Digital Gemology has on one gemstone: refractive index (both rays for doubly refractive stones), birefringence, dispersion, specific gravity, hardness, crystal system, critical angle, what a refractometer, polariscope and dichroscope show, its pleochroic colors and the lines and bands a hand spectroscope shows, with links to the free tools. For the seven stones our tools model the values are the tools' own; for the others they are published reference values, with their sources. Also which stone's ray-traced cut scores apply to it (cut_scores_from, cut_scores_url), or why it has none (cut_scores_note).NoYesYesNo
identify_gemMatch a stone's test readings against the 36 gemstones in Digital Gemology's data and rank them, saying which reading fits and which does not. Give any of: refractive index, birefringence, specific gravity, optic character, pleochroism, a spectrum line, or that the refractometer read over the limit. A match is a lead, not an identification.NoYesYesNo
