Abstract

It is our aim in this note to take a closer look at some separation axioms in the construct AP of approach spaces and contractions. Whereas lower separation axioms seem to be qualitative, the higher ones seem to have a quantitative nature. Also some characterizations for the corresponding epireectors will be given.
