Detailed Description

All the chromaticities

Note
Useful link to have some explanations about chromaticity purpose https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CIE_1931_color_space#CIE_xy_chromaticity_diagram_and_the_CIE_xyY_color_space
The xy chromaticity coordinates for Red, Green, Blue, and White are used in the OpenEXR file format and many other places as a way of defining the primaries and white point of a linear color space. Dividing a three-dimensional color by its magnitude forms a projection onto a two-dimensional xy chromaticity plane. This makes for an easy way to compare the gamuts allowed by various primary sets (i.e., the graphs you've no doubt seen with several triangles inside the horseshoe-shaped spectral locus). Although the standard white for video is D65, we sometimes need to deal with other white points (e.g., D60 for ACES). Hence we need to communicate the white point as well.
