Palmer for over twenty years at the University of Arizona College of Optical Sciences. This text covers topics in radiation propagation, radiometric sources, optical materials, detectors of optical radiation, radiometric measurements, and calibration. Radiometry forms the practical basis of many current applications in aerospace engineering, infrared systems engineering, remote sensing systems, displays, visible and ultraviolet sensors, infrared detectors of optical radiation, and many other areas. While several texts individually cover topics in specific areas, this text brings the underlying principles together in a manner suitable for both classroom teaching and a reference volume that the practicing engineer can use.SPIE Press monograph ;PM184.RadiationMeasurementRadiationMeasurement.539.7/7Palmer James M66662Grant Barbara G(Barbara Geri),1957-1822014Society of Photo-optical Instrumentation Engineers.MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9911004813303321The art of radiometry4388009UNINA
