Handbook of CCD Astronomy Hardback
by Steve B. Howell
Part of the Cambridge Observing Handbooks for Research Astronomers series
Hardback
Description
This handbook constitutes a concise and accessible reference on all practical aspects of using Charge-Coupled Devices (CCDs). Starting with the electronic workings of these modern marvels, Steven Howell discusses their basic characteristics and then gives methods and examples for determining their values.
While the focus is on using CCDs in professional observational astronomy, advanced amateur astronomers, and researchers in physics, chemistry, medical imaging, and remote sensing will also benefit from the material.
Tables of useful and hard-to-find data, and key practical equations round off the book's treatment. For exercises and more information, log on to www psi.edu/-howell/ccd.html.
