form,
(n) a particular point in the time of a cycle; measured from some arbitrary zero and expressed as an angle phase angle,
(n) (astronomy) the particular appearance of a body's state of illumination (especially one of the recurring shapes of the part of Earth's moon that is illuminated by the sun)
