Editorial Reviews
Book Description
This workshop was attended by leaders in the field of astronomical instrumentation from over a dozen countries. Papers describe not only instruments in operation at most major astronomical observatories but also plans and detailed designs for the next generation of instruments. Subjects discussed include spectrographs, sensors, telescope and instrument control, computer support, optical components, adaptive optics, and data acquisition techniques. This book will be of great interest to those who plan or design new instruments for astronomy.
