Download or read book The Apparent Size of Objects Viewed Through Telescopes written by James M. Vanderplas and published by . This book was released on 1954 with total page 42 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When objects are viewed through telescopes or periscopes having restricted fields of view, they often appear to be of a different size or distance than when they are viewed with the naked eye. This creates a serious problem in certain aircraft uses where it is important that size and distance judgements be accurate. While no completely satisfactory explanation of this phenomenon has been offered, a previous study has ruled the effects of restrictions in the visual field as major contributors.

Book excerpt: University Physics is a three-volume collection that meets the scope and sequence requirements for two- and three-semester calculus-based physics courses. Volume 1 covers mechanics, sound, oscillations, and waves. Volume 2 covers thermodynamics, electricity and magnetism, and Volume 3 covers optics and modern physics. This textbook emphasizes connections between between theory and application, making physics concepts interesting and accessible to students while maintaining the mathematical rigor inherent in the subject. Frequent, strong examples focus on how to approach a problem, how to work with the equations, and how to check and generalize the result. The text and images in this textbook are grayscale.

Download or read book Care of Astronomical Telescopes and Accessories written by M. Barlow Pepin and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2006-03-30 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Commercially-made astronomical telescopes are better and less expensive than ever before, and their optical and mechanical performance can be superb. When a good-quality telescope fails to perform as well as it might, the reason is quite probably that it needs a little care and attention! Here is a complete guide for anyone who wants to understand more than just the basics of astronomical telescopes and accessories, and how to maintain them in the peak of condition. The latest on safely adjusting, cleaning, and maintaining your equipment is combined with thoroughly updated methods from the old masters. Here, too, are details of choosing new and used optics and accessories, along with enhancements you can make to extend their versatility and useful lifetime. This book is for you. Really. Looking after an astronomical telescope isn’t only for the experts - although there are some things that only an expert should attempt - and every serious amateur astronomer will find invaluable information here, gleaned from Barlow Pepin's many years’ experience working with optical instruments.

Download or read book Go To Telescopes Under Suburban Skies written by Neale Monks and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2010-09-14 with total page 275 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Go-To Telescopes Under Suburban Skies is the first book specifically written for amateur astronomers who own, or who are about to purchase, a computer-controlled ‘go-to’ telescope. The advantage of the ‘go-to’ capability is enormous – the telescope can be aimed at any object in the sky with great speed and accuracy – which is why these instruments are so popular. Making the realistic assumption that the observer is using a relatively small telescope and is observing from a backyard in a suburban area, this book provides literally hundreds more targets beyond those offered by the built-in ‘nightly tours’ that feature on the telescope’s computer tours. And instead of wasting many pages on maps and coordinates, it leads the computer to locate the targets, and so has room to suggest many more fascinating deep-sky objects and provide detailed observing lists and information about what's being viewed.
