It is common knowledge that the Classical Age was followed by many centuries of utter stagnation and decline with virtually nothing happening but wars and famine and the destruction of the priceless ancient monuments.For excerpt, TOC, 'Search Inside' and reviews click on http://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/2913621074?tag=operaonline-21&camp=2506&creative=9274&link_code=as3
In astronomy, information is mainly received from the detection and analysis of light and other forms of electromagnetic radiation.[11] However, useful information has also been acquired using neutrino detectors. These have been used to observe solar neutrinos, and neutrino emissions from supernovae have also been detected. There are also instruments to observe the effects of cosmic rays, and, in the near future, several experiments are designed to detect gravitational waves.[12]
A traditional division among astronomy fields is based on the region of the electromagnetic spectrum observed. At the low frequency end of the spectrum, radio astronomy detects radiation in wavelengths measuring between a millimeter and a dekameter. The radio telescope receivers are similar to those used in radio broadcast transmissions, but are much more sensitive. Microwaves form the millimeter end of the radio spectrum, and are important for studies of the cosmic microwave background radiation.
Infrared astronomy and far infrared astronomy deal with the detection and analysis of infrared radiation (wavelengths longer than red light). The most common instrument used to isolate this band is a telescope that uses a detector which is sensitive to the infrared. Infrared radiation is heavily absorbed by atmospheric water vapor, so infrared observatories have to be located in high, dry places or in outer space. Space telescopes in particular avoid atmospheric thermal emissions, atmospheric opacity, and the negative effects of astronomical seeing at infrared and other wavelengths. Infrared is particularly useful for observation of galactic regions cloaked by dust, and for studies of molecular gases.
