Patterns of Light
Author: Steven Beeson
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 0387751076
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 204
Book Description
Any student or engineer working in optics or the field of laser technology will find this a fascinating read. The book begins by addressing the properties of light as seen in the everyday world: events such as refraction in a pool, lenses in the form of glasses, the colors of objects, and atmospheric events. Latter chapters explain these events at the atomic and subatomic level and address the use of electron and optical microscopy in observing the worlds unseen by the unaided eye. Exercises and activities will be found in an appendix, but the primary volume can stand alone if the reader so desires.

Ultra-Violet Rays and Their Use in the Examination of Works of Art
Author: James J. Rorimer
Publisher: Metropolitan Museum of Art
ISBN:
Category : Art
Languages : en
Pages : 156
Book Description
This book is the outcome of experiments in the examination of works of art under ultra-violet rays, conducted in the Museum in the late 1920s by James J. Rorimer. One of the first publications to provide an introduction to this method of accessing the condition and age of a work of art, Ultra-Violet Rays and Their Use in the Examination of Works of Art includes images of of several different objects in the Met's collection across cultures and media displayed under ultra-violet light.

New Horizons from Multi-Wavelength Sky Surveys
Author: Brian J. McLean
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 9400914857
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 508
Book Description
Large area sky surveys are now a reality in the radio, IR, optical and X-ray passbands. In the next few years, new surveys using optical, UV and IR mosaic cameras with high throughput digital detectors will expand the dynamic range and accuracy of photometry and astrometry of objects over a significant fraction of the entire sky. Parallel X-ray and radio surveys over the same areas will produce astronomical image and spectroscopic databases of unprecedented size and quality. The combined data sets will provide significant new constraints on star formation, stellar dynamics, Galactic structure, the evolution of galaxies and large scale structure, as well as new opportunities to identify rare objects in the solar system and the Galaxy. Large area surveys have formidable data acquisition, processing, archiving, and data distribution demands and this meeting provided a forum for sharing experiences amongst workers specializing in different wavebands as well as discussing how multiband observations can reveal fundamental relationships in our understanding of the Universe.

Light from the Void
Author: Kimberly K. Arcand
Publisher: Smithsonian Institution
ISBN: 1588346781
Category : Photography
Languages : en
Pages : 205
Book Description
A lavish coffee-table book featuring spectacular images from the Chandra X-Ray Observatory, the most powerful X-Ray telescope ever built Take a journey through the cosmos with Light from the Void, a stunning collection of photographs from the Chandra X-Ray Observatory's two decades of operation. The book showcases rarely-seen celestial phenomena such as black holes, planetary nebulae, galaxy clusters, gravitational waves, stellar birth and death, and more. Accompanying these images of incredible natural phenomena are captions explaining how they occur. The images start close to home and move outward: beginning with images of the Chandra launch, then moving into the solar system, through the nearby universe, and finally to the most distant galaxies Chandra has observed, the book brings readers on a far-out visual voyage.
