Ultraviolet Radiation (Classic Reprint): Its Properties, Production, Measurement, and Applications: Its Properties, Production, Measurement, and Applications (Classic Reprint) - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

The book provides a clear, practical look at ultraviolet radiation—its properties, how it is produced, how it is measured, and how it is used in science and industry. It covers a range of light sources, from spark gaps and arcs to gas discharges, and explains how researchers write spectra and map ultraviolet regions with quartz and fluorite windows.

You’ll find grounded, technique‑oriented discussions that stay focused on real experiments and the tools used to study UV radiation. The material is arranged to help readers understand both the fundamentals and the methods scientists employ to push the boundaries of ultraviolet research.

• How ultraviolet light is generated in sparks, arcs, and discharge tubes, and how electrode materials affect spectra.


• How spectra from hydrogen, oxygen, carbon monoxide, mercury vapor, and other gases are observed and interpreted.


• How windows of quartz, fluorite, and different glass types extend or limit the ultraviolet range.


• How measurement devices like radiometers, spectrographs, and related equipment are used in UV studies.

Ideal for readers interested in the science and practical applications of ultraviolet radiation, from basic research to instrumentation and measurement.
