是哩！毋知你捌看過這款虹無？ 2018 年 tī 美國 New Jersey 州 ê Jersey 海岸，去予 Florence 風颱尾 掃過了後，日頭 tī 天頂出現，毋過另外彼爿煞出現 一大陣 虹。 紲落來這半點鐘，因為 多重虹 tī 天頂足活潑--ê，一時仔光一時仔暗，所以攝影師佮 in chău 囝歡喜甲上無有 翕著五張 孤張感光 ê 相片。 多重虹 干焦會 tī 天頂落落來 ê 水滴攏平大粒、而且比毫米較細 ê 時陣，才會出現。 了後，日光毋但會 ùi 雨水內部 反射，而且閣會產生 繞射。 繞射波 ê 形態，就佮 tī 水窟仔內底 擲一粒石頭產生 ê 水波仝款。 實際上，多重虹 干焦會當用波來解說，而且 tī 1800 年代早期就捌去 hŏng 認為講，這是 光有波 ê 性質 ê 早期證據。

[English] Supernumerary Rainbows over New Jersey

Yes, but can your rainbow do this? After the remnants of Hurricane Florence passed over the Jersey Shore, New Jersey, USA in 2018, the Sun came out in one direction but something quite unusual appeared in the opposite direction: a hall of rainbows. Over the course of a next half hour, to the delight of the photographer and his daughter, vibrant supernumerary rainbows faded in and out, with at least five captured in this featured single shot. Supernumerary rainbows only form when falling water droplets are all nearly the same size and typically less than a millimeter across. Then, sunlight will not only reflect from inside the raindrops, but interfere, a wave phenomenon similar to ripples on a pond when a stone is thrown in. In fact, supernumerary rainbows can only be explained with waves, and their noted existence in the early 1800s was considered early evidence of light's wave nature.
