| Title | Observational astronomy: Techniques and Instrumentation |
| Author(s) | Edmund C. Sutton |
| Publication | Cambridge, Cambridge University Press, 2012. |
| Description | xxiv, 394p. |
| Abstract Note | Astronomy is fundamentally an observational science and as such it is important for astronomers and astrophysicists to understand how their data are collected and analyzed. This book is a comprehensive review of current observational techniques and instruments. Featuring instruments such as Spitzer, Herschel, Fermi, ALMA, Super-Kamiokande, SNO, IceCube, the Auger Observatory, LIGO and LISA, the book discusses the capabilities and limitations of different types of instruments. It explores the sources and types of noise and provides statistical tools necessary for interpreting observational data. Due to the increasingly important role of statistical analysis, the techniques of Bayesian analysis are discussed, along with sampling techniques and model comparison. With topics ranging from fundamental subjects such as optics, photometry and spectroscopy, to neutrinos, cosmic rays and gravitational waves, this book is essential for graduate students in astronomy and physics. |

| Title | Observing variable stars, novae and supernovae |
| Author(s) | Gerald North |
| Publication | Cambridge, Cambridge University Press, 2004. |
| Description | xi, 230p.+CD-ROM, F: 015733 |
| Abstract Note | Variable stars can be fascinating objects to study. This complete practical guide and resource package instructs amateur astronomers in observing and monitoring variable stars and other objects of variable brightness. Descriptions of the objects are accompanied by explanations of the background astrophysics, providing readers with a real insight into what they are observing at the telescope. The main instrumental requirements for observing and estimating the brightness of objects by visual means and by CCD photometry are detailed, and there is advice on the selection of equipment. The book contains a CD-ROM packed with resources, including hundreds of light-curves and over 600 printable finder charts. Containing extensive practical advice, this comprehensive guide is an invaluable resource for amateur astronomers of all levels, from complete beginners to more advanced observers. |

| Title | Introduction to color imaging science |
| Author(s) | Hsien-Che Lee |
| Publication | Cambridge, Cambridge University Press, 2005. |
| Description | xx, 695p. |
| Contents Note | Color imaging technology has become almost ubiquitous in modern life in the form of color photography, color monitors, color printers, scanners and digital cameras. The book is a comprehensive guide to the scientific and engieering principles of color imaging. It covers the physics of color and light, how the eye and physical devices capture color images, how color is measured and calibrated, how images are processesd. It stresses physical principles and includes a wealth of real-world examples. |
