PDF-(BOOK)-Tools of Radio Astronomy (Astronomy and Astrophysics Library)

This 6th edition of Tools of Radio Astronomy the most used introductory text in radio astronomy has been revised to reflect the current state of this important branch of astronomy This includes the use of satellites low radio frequencies the millimetersubmm universe the Cosmic Microwave Background and the increased importance of mmsubmm dust emissionSeveral derivations and presentations of technical aspects of radio astronomy and receivers such as receiver noise the Hertz dipole and beam forming have been updated expanded reworked or complemented by alternative derivations These reflect advances in technologyThe wider bandwidths of the JanskyVLA and long wave arrays such as LOFAR and mmsubmm arrays such as ALMA required an expansion of the discussion of interferometers and aperture synthesis Developments in data reduction algorithms have been includedAs a result of the large amount of data collected in the past 20 years the discussion of solar system radio astronomy dust emission and radio supernovae has been revisitedThe chapters on spectral line emission have been updated to cover measurements of the neutral hydrogen radiation from the early universe as well as measurements with new facilities Similarly the discussion of molecules in interstellar space has been expanded to include the molecular and dust emission from protostars and very cold regionsSeveral worked examples have been added in the areas of fundamental physics such as pulsarsBoth students and practicing astronomers will appreciate this new uptodate edition of Tools of Radio Astronomy.

Thoroughly revised for its 2nd edition, this book presents state-of-the-art coverage of stellar physics, and interprets sophisticated current stellar models. A comprehensive view of the physics of the stellar interior and underlying processes and parameters. Comprehensive, authoritative coverage of interferometric techniques for radio astronomy In this Second Edition of Interferometry and Synthesis in Radio Astronomy, three leading figures in the development of large imaging arrays, including very-long-baseline interferometry (VLBI), describe and explain the technology that provides images of the universe with an angular resolution as fine as 1/20,000 of an arcsecond. This comprehensive volume begins with a historical review followed by detailed coverage of the theory of interferometry and synthesis imaging, analysis of interferometer response, geometrical relationships, polarimetry, antennas, and arrays. Discussion of the receiving system continues with analysis of the response to signals and noise, analog design requirements, and digital signal processing. The authors detail special requirements of VLBI including atomic frequency standards, broadband recording systems, and antennas in orbit. Further major topics include: * Calibration of data and synthesis of images* Image enhancement using nonlinear algorithms* Techniques for astrometry and geodesy* Propagation in the neutral atmosphere and ionized media* Radio interference* Related techniques: intensity interferometry, moon occultations, antenna holography, and optical interferometry Interferometry and Synthesis in Radio Astronomy, Second Edition is comprehensive in that it provides an excellent overview of most radio astronomical instrumentation and techniques.
