TELESCOPES AND TECHNIQUES
/ KITCHIN, C. R.
: 2013
ABSTRACT / INHALTSTEXT
TELESCOPES AND TECHNIQUES HAS PROVED ITSELF IN ITS FIRST TWO EDITIONS,
HAVING BECOME PROBABLY ONE OF THE MOST WIDELY USED ASTRONOMY TEXTS, BOTH
FOR AMATEUR ASTRONOMERS AND ASTRONOMY AND ASTROPHYSICS UNDERGRADUATES.
BOTH EARLIER EDITIONS OF THE BOOK WERE WIDELY USED FOR INTRODUCTORY
PRACTICAL ASTRONOMY COURSES IN MANY UNIVERSITIES. IN THIS THIRD EDITION
THE AUTHOR GUIDES THE READER THROUGH THE MATHEMATICS, PHYSICS AND
PRACTICAL TECHNIQUES NEEDED TO USE TODAY S TELESCOPES (FROM THE SMALLER
MODELS TO THE LARGER INSTRUMENTS INSTALLED IN MANY COLLEGES) AND HOW TO
FIND OBJECTS IN THE SKY. MOST OF THE PHYSICS AND ENGINEERING INVOLVED IS
DESCRIBED FULLY AND REQUIRES LITTLE PRIOR KNOWLEDGE OR EXPERIENCE. BOTH
VISUAL AND ELECTRONIC IMAGING TECHNIQUES ARE COVERED, TOGETHER WITH AN
INTRODUCTION TO HOW DATA (MEASUREMENTS) SHOULD BE PROCESSED AND
ANALYZED. A SIMPLE INTRODUCTION TO RADIO TELESCOPES IS ALSO INCLUDED.
BRIEF COVERAGE OF THE MORE ADVANCED TOPICS OF PHOTOMETRY AND
SPECTROSCOPY ARE INCLUDED, BUT MAINLY TO ENABLE THE READER TO SEE SOME
OF THE DEVELOPMENTS POSSIBLE FROM THE BASIC OBSERVING TECHNIQUES COVERED
IN THE REST OF THE BOOK. FOR ANYONE INTENDING TO ENTER ASTRONOMY AS A
PROFESSIONAL, AN UNDERSTANDING OF THE PHYSICS IS ESSENTIAL - AND THIS
NEWEST VERSION OF TELESCOPES AND TECHNIQUES IS ONE OF THE BEST STARTING
POINTS!
