George H. Rieke is Regents Professor of Astronomy and Planetary Sciences at the University of Arizona. He switched from TeV gamma rays to the infrared just in time to enjoy its growth from primitive beginnings, to culminate with the launch of JWST. He has contributed to many scientific and technical topics along the way, gaining the background for this broad-ranging book. His other books include The Last of the Great Observatories (2006) and Measuring the Universe (Cambridge, 2017), which won the American Astronomical Society's Chambliss Astronomical Writing Award.

Hardcover. Condizione: new. Hardcover. The invention and development of advanced methods to detect light underlies much of modern technology. This fully updated and restructured third edition is unique amongst the literature, providing a comprehensive, uniform discussion of a broad range of detection approaches. The material is accessible to a broad range of readers rather than just highly trained specialists, beginning with first principles and developing the relevant physics as it goes. The book emphasizes physical understanding of detector operation, without being a catalog of current examples. It is self-contained but also provides a bridge to more specialized works on specific approaches; each chapter points readers toward the relevant literature. This will provide a broad and lasting understanding of the methods for detecting light that underpin so much of our technology. The book is suitable for advanced undergraduate and graduate students, and will provide a valuable reference for professionals across physics and engineering disciplines. Fully restructured and updated, Detection of Light introduces the whole range of photon detectors from first principles to an audience with a modest background in physics. These devices are central to much of our technology, making this an ideal resource for students and professionals in many technical areas. This item is printed on demand.
