Light- gathering power of a telescope is proportional to the area of its aperture and hence depends on the square of the radius of the mirror. Therefore a 20 cm diameter telescope collects four times more photons than

Telescopes Hans Lippershey (1570 - September 1619) was a Dutch lens maker. Lippershey is believed to be the first to apply for a patent for his design‚ a few weeks before Jacob Metius (a Dutch instrument maker and optician)‚ and making it available for general use in 1608. The telescope invented by Lippershey was composed of a convex and a concave lens‚ as this construction did not invert the image and had only a magnification of just 3x. Galileo’s telescope improved the original Dutch telescopes

this energy as heat to the working fluid. The most efficient receivers for this system are cavity receivers with a small aperture through which concentrates entered sunlight. The absorber is placed behind the aperture to reduce the intensity of concentrated solar flux. The isolated cavity between the aperture and absorber reduces the amount of heat loss. Increasing receiver aperture will increase the concentrated sunlight. On the other hand‚ it also increases radiation and convection losses. Consequently

Radiation pattern From Wikipedia‚ the free encyclopedia Jump to: navigation‚ search Antenna radiation patterns In the field of antenna design the term ’radiation pattern ’ most commonly refers to the directional (angular) dependence of radiation from the antenna or other source (synonyms: antenna pattern‚ far-field pattern).[1][2][3] Particularly in the fields of fiber optics‚ lasers‚ and integrated optics‚ the term radiation pattern‚ or near-field radiation pattern‚ may also be used as

of the camera. Forced Perspective in film can be made believable when environmental conditions obscure the difference in perspective. The role of light is very important in film. When shooting with forced perspective‚ it’s important to have the aperture stopped down sufficiently to achieve proper depth of field‚ so that the foreground object and background are both sharp. A good example of forced perspective in film is in Peter Jackson’s film adaptations of The Lord of the Rings.Characters apparently

Paper submission on electron microscopy professor: Ernesto Suarez by ananthalakshmi adapa University of Hartford What is a electron microscopy? An electron microscope (EM) is a type of microscope that uses an electron beam to illuminate a specimen and produce a magnified image. An EM has greater resolving power than a light microscope and can reveal the structure of smaller objects because electrons have wavelengths about

We now define certain terms and symbols that will be used later. Let D and F be the diameter (aperture) and focal length of the primary mirror and let fe be the focal length of the eyepiece. It can be shown that the angular magnifying power of the telescope ‚ M is given by M= F/fe Thus the angular magnification can be increased by increasing the
