Title | Optical, Infrared and Radio Astronomy : From Techniques to Observation |
Author(s) | Poggiani, Rosa |
Publication | Cham, Springer International Publishing, 2017. |
Description | XII, 179 p. 78 illus : online resource |
Abstract Note | This textbook presents the established sciences of optical, infrared, and radio astronomy as distinct research areas, focusing on the science targets and the constraints that they place on instrumentation in the different domains.??It aims to bridge the gap between specialized books and practical texts, presenting the state of the art in different techniques.?? For each type of astronomy, the discussion proceeds from the orders of magnitude for observable quantities that drive the building of instrumentation and the development of advanced techniques. The specific telescopes and detectors are then presented, together with the techniques used to measure fluxes and spectra.?? Finally, the instruments and their limits are discussed to assist readers in choice of setup, planning and execution of observations, and data reduction. The volume also??includes worked examples and problem sets to improve student understanding; tables and figures in chapters su mmarize the state of the art of instrumentation and techniques |

Title | High Energy Astrophysical Techniques |
Author(s) | Poggiani, Rosa |
Publication | Cham, Springer International Publishing, 2017. |
Description | XIV, 163 p. 64 illus : online resource |
Abstract Note | This textbook presents ultraviolet and X-ray astronomy, gamma-ray astronomy, cosmic ray astronomy, neutrino astronomy, and gravitational wave astronomy as distinct research areas, focusing on the astrophysics targets and the requirements with respect to instrumentation and observation methods. The purpose of the book is to bridge the gap between the reference books and the specialized literature. For each type of astronomy, the discussion proceeds from the orders of magnitude for observable quantities. The physical principles of photon and particle detectors are then addressed, and the specific telescopes and combinations of detectors, presented. Finally the instruments and their limits are discussed with a view to assisting readers in the planning and execution of observations. Astronomical observations with high-energy photons and particles represent the newest additions to multimessenger astronomy and this book will be of value to all with an interest in the field |
