The timing and strength of the electromagnetic
radiation at different wavelengths provided scientists with clues about the nature of the phenomena created by the initial neutron - star collision.
Each channel observes the
sun at a different wavelength, allowing scientists to detect a wide range of solar phenomena important for space weather forecasting.
McDonald and his colleagues studied the cluster at first using the space based Chandra X-Ray Observatory, and then followed up with observations taken by 10 space and ground - based telescopes imaging the
object at different wavelengths of light.
The spectrograph produces 18
images at different wavelengths of light, which enables GPI to reject light from nearby stars, which can be up to 10 million times brighter than the planets being studied.
«
Observations at different wavelengths across the infrared spectrum allow us to piece together a three dimensional picture of how energy and material are transported upwards through the atmosphere.»
Each ribbon
rises at a different wavelength, intertwining and weaving gently upward, calling to mind real life equivalents of trees, microscopic life forms and sine curves.
The surviving signals include not only the microwave background but also three others that
peak at different wavelengths: infrared light, visible light, and x-rays.
Powerful telescopes such as ALMA and VLT / SPHERE, with their unprecedented sensitivity and spatial resolution, are revealing fascinating structures in protoplanetary
disks at different wavelengths.
Different molecules and gases will affect the wavelengths of the light seen on the other side, and the layers of different materials can be identified by observing changes in the exoplanet's radius, when it's
viewed at different wavelengths.
Light can be precisely controlled in time and space; it can penetrate brain tissue; it can be used to image the brain in three dimensions; and it can be
delivered at different wavelengths to access multiple distinct molecular targets.
These efforts include broadly based observing programs,
frequently at different wavelength bands, challenging theoretical research, and ongoing development of instrumentation to benefit from advances in new technologies, instrument design, and computational power.
Radiative transfer in the earth's atmosphere is not particularly amenable to simple formulas because the atmosphere is semi-transparent to differing
degree at different wavelengths, which allows radiation emitted locally to interact with the entire atmosphere.
[Response: the Milankovitch timescale is long and the forcing barely varies due to orbital changes over 100 years so no, they aren't included (they would be for people modelling the last glacial maximum); solar forcing is modelled by change in total solar irradiance (probably as a total number; not sure if
changes at different wavelengths are included)-- William]
These sea surface expressions of the internal
tide at different wavelengths can be detected with the Topex / Poseidon or Jason - 1 satellites (Fig. 2).
* During the subsequent analysis the astronomer can move through the data and study different views of the
object at different wavelengths, just like tuning a television to different channels at different frequencies.
