Nuclear

Summary

Nuclear is a sequential colormap from cmasher. Lightness rises monotonically from 0.00 to 0.90, hue sweeps 146°, and order holds under all three colorblind simulations.

Yellow-green-cyan sequential.

Perceptual profile (OKLCh)

• Lightness: 0.000 → 0.895 (range 0.895, min 0.000, max 0.895); monotonic; midpoint 0.502
• Chroma: min 0.000, max 0.247, mean 0.119
• Hue: 0.0° → 132.9° (span 146.4°), path monotonic-cw; quadrants: green
• Endpoint temperature: null → warm
• Perceptual ΔE: total 85.3, mean/step 0.335, max step 0.528, smoothness 0.792, speed 0.335

Colorblind safety (ΔE under simulated CVD)

• Protanopia: ΔE total 80.7; preserves order: yes
• Deuteranopia: ΔE total 76.9; preserves order: yes
• Tritanopia: ΔE total 78.9; preserves order: yes
