This book was released on 2008-11-20 with total page 715 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 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.

Download or read book Current Trends in Caucasian East European and Inner Asian Linguistics written by Dee Ann Holisky and published by John Benjamins Publishing. This book was released on 2003-10-27 with total page 456 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume is a collection of seventeen papers, on languages of all three indigenous Caucasian families as well as other languages spoken in the territory of the former Soviet Union. Several papers are concerned with diachronic questions, either within individual families, or at deeper time depths. Some authors utilize their field data to address problems of general linguistic interest, such as reflexivization. A number of papers look at the evidence for contact-induced change in multilingual areas. Some of the most exciting contributions to the collection represent significant advances in the reconstruction of the prehistory of such understudied language families as Northeast Caucasian, Tungusic and the baffling isolate Ket. This book will be of interest not only to specialists in the indigenous languages of the former USSR, but also to historical and synchronic linguists seeking to familiarize themselves with the fascinating, typologically diverse languages from the interior of the Eurasian continent. Dee Ann Holisky is Professor of English and Linguistics, and Associate Dean for Academic Programs of the College of Arts & Sciences at George Mason University. She is the author of Aspect and Georgian Medial Verbs (Caravan Books, 1981) and of numerous articles on Georgian and Kartvelian linguistics. Kevin Tuite is Professor of Anthropology at the Université de Montréal. Among his books are An Anthology of Georgian Folk Poetry (Fairleigh Dickinson University Press, 1994) and Ethnolinguistics and Anthropological Theory (co-edited with Christine Jourdan; Montréal: Éditions Fides, 2003).

Download or read book Transfinite Interpolation and Eulerian Lagrangian Dynamics written by André Garon and published by SIAM. This book was released on 2022-03-25 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book introduces transfinite interpolation as a generalization of interpolation of data prescribed at a finite number of points to data prescribed on a geometrically structured set, such as a piece of curve, surface, or submanifold. The time-independent theory is readily extended to a moving/deforming data set whose dynamics is specified in a Eulerian or Lagrangian framework. The resulting innovative tools cover a very broad spectrum of applications in fluid mechanics, geometric optimization, and imaging. The authors chose to focus on the dynamical mesh updating in fluid mechanics and the construction of velocity fields from the boundary expression of the shape derivative. Transfinite Interpolations and Eulerian/Lagrangian Dynamics is a self-contained graduate-level text that integrates theory, applications, numerical approximations, and computational techniques. It applies transfinite interpolation methods to finite element mesh adaptation and ALE fluid-structure interaction. Specialists in applied mathematics, physics, mechanics, computational sciences, imaging sciences, and engineering will find this book of interest.
