Download or read book Broadband UV VIS and IR Radiometric Photometric Color and Temperature Measurements written by George P. Eppeldauer and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2021-04-07 with total page 234 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In most field applications, broadband measurements are used where the spectral product of the source distribution and the meter’s spectral responsivity is measured. This book discusses detector-based radiometric, photometric, color, radiation-temperature, digital imaging-system, and LED measurements. It also shows that, while in photometry, the meter’s standard response covers only the visible, broadband measurements in the UV and IR require different standards. To avoid large errors when using a traditional detector- or source-standard, where the differences in the source distributions and in the meter’s responsivities produce large errors, the signal measurement procedure itself must be standardized. To satisfy the steps of the procedure, selected or properly designed meters should be used. This book is a guide to performing uniform broadband measurements with low uncertainty.

Download or read book Optical Detector Applications for Radiometric Measurements written by George P. Eppeldauer and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2020-10-27 with total page 183 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The recently developed optical radiation detectors need well-designed radiometers to perform improved radiometric, photometric, colorimetric, and radiation-temperature measurements. They can produce higher performance than traditionally used blackbody sources and lamps in wider application areas. This book presents research-based material in this field that has been implemented, realized, tested, verified, and evaluated. It can be used as a reference source for students, practicing scientists, engineers, technicians, instrument manufacturers and measurement/calibration people to learn, design, build, select, and use new generation radiometers. The book describes a number of design issues and applications to implement the correct input geometry for detectors to measure radiometric (power, irradiance and radiance) quantities, and DC, AC, and pulsed electrical output signals.

Download or read book Optical Detector and Radiometer Standards written by George P. Eppeldauer and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2020-12-01 with total page 241 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book discusses modern, user-friendly radiometric practices that make it possible to convert from traditional source-based optical radiation measurements to the more efficient and higher accuracy detector-based applications and calibrations. It considers improved performance optical detector and radiometer standards including photometers and tristimulus colorimeters, and describes research-based design considerations, measurement of radiometric, optical, and electronic characteristics, and comparison of absolute-, transfer-, and working-standard detectors and radiometers from the ultraviolet (UV) to the infrared (IR) range. The book will serve to guide the optical radiation measurement community, researchers, manufacturers, calibration laboratories, students, and practicing engineers to switch from the old and limited-use measurement methods to the higher performance detector-based applications. The radiometer standards discussed here can be used to produce wide range radiometric, photometric, colour, and radiation temperature measurements with low uncertainty.

Book excerpt: The present challenge in the treatment of tumors is to reduce the number of patients that still die as a result of primary tumors. Today, the percentage of such deaths remains high at 30%, even when all the common therapeutic methods, namely surgery, radiotherapy, and chemotherapy, are applied. In order to reduce this percentage, new types of radiation sources with a higher linear energy transfer have been intro duced, such as neutrons and pions. Fractionation patterns have been modified and radiosensitizers have been applied to in crease biological efficiency. Studies of the combined application of chemotherapy and radiotherapy have been made to find the best therapeutic effect. In the early 1970s biological findings confirmed the effect of hyperthermia on tumor cells. The first clinical studies on hyper thermia treatment demonstrated that it resulted in better local tumor control. Further application of this treatment modality showed that hyperthermia should be used in addition to radio therapy and chemotherapy. Despite these encouraging results, hyperthermia has not been introduced into common clinical use, due primarily to technical problems. There are a number of methods of transferring heat into tumors; however, with regard to physical conditions, an op timum method has not yet been found. One of the reasons is that up to now we have had no reliable method of obtaining thermal mapping of all parts of the human body. Such measurements are required not only for dosimetric purposes but also for the regula tion of a hyperthermic system.
