Friends,
I was wondering if someone familar with MSU''s free web-based scintillation simulator (located at http://www.cutstudy.com/cut/english/comp/scint1.htm) could explain how to understand the results?
From what Gary has said, the simulator shows how light would be reflected if a single beam of light was shown down on the table from directly above (perpendicular).
A couple of key questions:
1--A diamond with excellent scintillation should show...
a) MORE colorful points on the simulator?
b) LARGER colorful points?
C) BOTH (more points & larger points)?
2--Is there any correlation between this simulator and results on a BrillanceScope or Isee2?? i.e. a diamond fetching VH in scintillation on the B-scope will look like ______________ on the MSU scintillation simulator?
3--What is the purpose of the simulator? To compare two diamonds for superior scintillation in real life? Does anyone use this sim for puchasing decisions? how/why?
4--For an example... can anyone offer commentary on the sim results below?
Thanks! -jesrush
