Riassunto

A concise and accessible reference on the practical use of CCDs.

Recensione

'[Howell's] broad experience in CCD astronomy is evident throughout the book. Overall the book is well written and nicely printed ... I highly recommend it for anyone interested in CCD astronomy.' Ken Herkenhoff, EOS

'As an introduction to CCD imaging in astronomy, this handbook will serve well both the serious amateur and the fresh professional. For a wide range of objects, in optical to high-energy astronomy, the author shows admirably where the techniques suffer, how they can be corrected and what can be achieved. we recommend this handbook to all interested in CCDs, photometry and spectroscopy.' Irish Astronomical Journal

'... provides an ideal introduction to the practical use of CCDs for graduate students, as well as a handy reference for more experienced researchers.' Europe & Astronomy

'This handbook provides a concise and accessible reference on all practical aspects of using CCDs. Tables of useful and hard-to-find data, and key practical equations round the book off and ensure that it provides an ideal introduction to the practical use of CCDs for graduate students, as well as a handy reference for more experienced researchers.' Orion (Société Astronomique de Suisse)

'... much of the text will be invaluable to amateurs ... This is a slim paperback volume ... but has a high quantum efficiency of content and should be on the bookshelf of every amateur who claims to take the application of CCDs seriously.' Webb Society Quarterly Journal

'It is an excellent book and can be recommended to all who value a clearly written explanation of CCD technology, and one that can also be regarded as relevant to applications other than astronomy.' The Imaging Science Journal
