چکیده

Equipment and techniques employed in an airborne far ir (80-400 micro) spectral measurement of the solar brightness temperature are described, with particular attention paid to the scanning Michelson interferometer and the radiometric calibration. The airborne performance of several telescopic guiding systems, a liquid helium cooled bolometer, and golay cells are discussed, summarizing experience gained on twenty-five jet aircraft flights.

Recent advances in measurement of the water vapour continuum in the far-infrared spectral region.

We present a new derivation of the foreign-broadened water vapour continuum in the far-infrared (far-IR) pure rotation band between 24 μm and 120 μm (85-420 cm(-1)) from field data collected in flight campaigns of the Continuum Absorption by Visible and IR radiation and Atmospheric Relevance (CAVIAR) project with Imperial College's Tropospheric Airborne Fourier Transform Spectrometer (TAFTS) fa...

Atmospheric Correction for Global Mapping Spectroscopy: ATREM Advances for the HyspIRI Preparatory Campaign

Orbital imaging spectrometers, such as the proposed Hyperspectral Infrared Imager (HyspIRI) mission, will provide global, multi-year Visible Shortwave Infrared (VSWIR) reflectance maps. Monitoring the Earth’s surface at high spectral resolution will advance our understanding of changing ecosystems and land use. These applications depend on reliable correction of atmospheric scattering and absor...

HgCdTe Arrays for the Far

The development of focal plane arrays (FPAs) has dramatically increased the sensitivity and efficiency of large optical and infrared telescopes. For the 1-2.5 mm band, the 1Kx1K HgCdTe “Hawaii” chip is the largest operational array in astronomy. Similar arrays of 2Kx2K are now in development, with the goal of assembling an 8Kx8K mosaic array for the Next Generation Space Telescope (NGST) projec...

Mineral Mapping Using Spectroscopy: From Field Measurements to Airborne and Satellite-Based Imaging Spectrometry

Mineral physics dictate the appearance of rocks and soils across the electromagnetic spectrum. In the Visible/Near-Infrared (VNIR) and Short Wave Infrared (SWIR), many materials absorb radiation at specific wavelengths, allowing their identification by the position and character of absorption features. Electronic processes at wavelengths less ~1.0 micrometers allow (in addition to others) ident...
