DOME
Dome, n. Etym: [F. dĂ´me, It. duomo, fr. L. domus a house, domus Dei
or Domini, house of the Lord, house of God; akin to Gr. timber. See
Timber.]
1. A building; a house; an edifice; -- used chiefly in poetry.
Approach the dome, the social banquet share. Pope.
2. (Arch.)
Definition: A cupola formed on a large scale.
Note: "The Italians apply the term il duomo to the principal church
of a city, and the Germans call every cathedral church Dom; and it is
supposed that the word in its present English sense has crept into
use from the circumstance of such buildings being frequently
surmounted by a cupola." Am. Cyc.
3. Any erection resembling the dome or cupola of a building; as the
upper part of a furnace, the vertical steam chamber on the top of a
boiler, etc.
4. (Crystallog.)
Definition: A prism formed by planes parallel to a lateral axis which meet
above in a horizontal edge, like the roof of a house; also, one of
the planes of such a form.
Note: If the plane is parallel to the longer diagonal (macrodiagonal)
of the prism, it is called a macrodome; if parallel to the shorter
(brachydiagonal), it is a brachydome; if parallel to the inclined
diagonal in a monoclinic crystal, it is called a clinodome; if
parallel to the orthodiagonal axis, an orthodome. Dana.
Dome, n. Etym: [See Doom.]
Definition: Decision; judgment; opinion; a court decision. [Obs.] Chaucer.
