   An inaccurate shadow in a three-dimensional rendering, caused by a vertex of an object being projected through the point of a light source.

   • Correct shadows and antishadows are shown in Figure 9.6.
2. 2

   The dampening of subatomic shadow effects due to rescattering.

   • The calculations prove that the rate of the colour transparency growth with v depends on the contribution of resonances in the inelastic antishadow rescattering.
   • The other uses "antishadows", additional shadow degrees of freedom that can be made antithetic to the existing shadows.
   • Not necessarily, and the reason is the existence of the reflective (antishadow) scattering at the LHC energies.
3. 3

   Whiteness or brightness, especially where darkness is expected or found.

   • The antishadow of pale skin between the exposed tops of her breasts said that her darkness came from the desert sun.
   • She snaps the chain of the overhead bulb at the same moment a thin slice of white cat, an antishadow, slips past her legs.
   • The flames melt into each other like antishadows, climb atop the backs of old papers and twigs and start to burn.

   1. 4

      A dampening or absence of shadow.

      • I glanced along the wall until I found a window, only recognizing it by the antishadows of clouds passing in the distance.
   2. 5

      To reduce subatomic shadow effects.

      • This linear dependence has not been applied in data analysis since the discovery of the shadowing and antishadowing effects.
      • The shift of the momentum distributions towards higher x values not only explains why bound nucleons are shadowed relative to free ones at low x but also implies that the bound nucleons should be antishadowed at some higher values.
      • First, while the origin of nuclear shadowing is understood, the dynamics of antishadowing is unknown
   3. 6

      Opposed to quasilegal activity.

      • Note that in Chapter 4 we discuss the major antishadow-education policies of South Korea as an attempt to lessen social reproductive processes.
