Domain	Definitions
Satire	HALO, n. Properly, a luminous ring encircling an astronomical body, but not infrequently confounded with "aureola," or "nimbus," a somewhat similar phenomenon worn as a head-dress by divinities and saints. The halo is a purely optical illusion, produced by moisture in the air, in the manner of a rainbow; but the aureola is conferred as a sign of superior sanctity, in the same way as a bishop's mitre, or the Pope's tiara. In the painting of the Nativity, by Szedgkin, a pious artist of Pesth, not only do the Virgin and the Child wear the nimbus, but an ass nibbling hay from the sacred manger is similarly decorated and, to his lasting honor be it said, appears to bear his unaccustomed dignity with a truly saintly grace.

Mining	A. A circular or crescentic distribution pattern about the source or origin of a mineral, ore, mineral association, or petrographic feature. It is encountered principally in magnetic and geochemical surveys. Some halos are primary, formed either at the same time as the host rock or at the same time as associated mineral deposits, and some are secondary, formed by surficial alteration of the associated mineral deposit. Syn:aureole CF:dispersion pattern b. Discoloration of a mineral, viewed in thin section, in the form of a ring. Most halos of this sort are caused by radiation damage by alphaparticles emitted from uranium- and thorium-bearing mineral inclusions. (references)
Physics	The cold, dense plasma formed outside the last closed flux surface during a vertical displacement event. The large currents which flow through this plasma stop the displacement and transfer the force to the vacuum vessel. If care is not taken in design, the halo currents can be large enough to threaten the structural integrity of the vacuum vessel or in-vessel components. Whereas the center of a tokamak plasma is too hot for material probes to survive, probes (such as magnetic-field coils) can sometimes be placed in the halo, and can measure things such as the halo current (see below). See also entry for vertical instability. (references)

In Christian sacred art (Eastern and Western churches), holy persons (saints) are depicted with a halo, a golden, yellow or white circular glow, around the head. It is sometimes called a nimbus as well. See iconography.

The halo appears in the art of ancient Greece and Rome, and was incorporated into Christian art sometime in the 4th century. Round halos are used to signify saints. A cross within a halo is used to represent Christ. Triangular halos are used for representations of the Trinity. Square halo are used to depict unusually saintly living personages.

In popular piety, this practice has led to the belief that saints during their earthly life actually walked around with a halo around their head. Of the many wonderful stories about saints, some report that a saint was literally glowing. This is called the aureole, a lemon-drop-shaped item that appears to radiate from the entire body of the holy being. Finally, there is also "glory," a glowing effusion used to cover up depictions of genitalia.

The halo underwent an interesting transformation during the Renaissance. Originally, the halo represented a glow of sanctity emanating from the head. Since it was conventionally drawn as a circle, during the Renaissance, when perspective became more important in art, the halo was changed from an aura surrounding the head to a golden ring that appeared in perspective, mysteriously floating above the heads of the saints.

Halo can refer to the Bungie Studios game for the Xbox, named Halo: Combat Evolved.

Halo is a designation given to every Nine Inch Nails official release (singles, remixes and/or EPs) where the Halo number indicates the order in which they were released. See Nine Inch Nails.

HALO

(From Wikipedia, the free Encyclopedia)

HALO is an acronym for High Altitude-Low Opening, a parachuting technique used by the military.

The transport plane, flying very high over unfriendly territory to avoid attacks, will parachute men and supplies in. Those men and supplies wait until they are very low off the ground to deploy their parachutes. This makes both the plane and the personel/equipment they are transporting very hard to attack while in-transit.
