Sentences with phrase «ultraviolet part»

These allow them to differentiate between red and blue, and even see wavelengths that we can not, in the far red and ultraviolet parts of the spectrum.

The richness of the world we see is rivaled only by that of birds and some insects, which also perceive the ultraviolet part of the spectrum.

Last year, two astronomers in the United Kingdom, Ross McLure at the University of Edinburgh and Matt Jarvis of the University of Oxford, showed that for distant galaxies, the emission line of ionized magnesium — which shows up in the ultraviolet part of the spectrum — can be used instead.

Now astronomers can see objects that were previously invisible, especially new galaxies that blaze in the ultraviolet part of the spectrum.

The enhanced lower range of sensitivity, compared to most instruments, allows the study of everything from comets (which have interesting features in the ultraviolet part of the spectrum) to the blue light from star formation, to the red light of very distant objects.

We saw that in the ultraviolet part of the spectrum spiral arms were visible — something you do not expect to see around elliptical galaxies.

This large range of wavelength coverage, combined with the instrument's high sensitivity, allows the study of everything from comets (which have interesting features in the ultraviolet part of the spectrum), to the blue light from star formation, to the red light of very distant objects.

HDST's exquisite image quality at visible wavelengths (with more than 25 times the resolving power of the Hubble Space Telescope) and high sensitivity all the way into the ultraviolet part of the spectrum (100 times more sensitive than Hubble), combined with a versatile set of imaging and spectroscopic instruments, will trigger profound breakthroughs in astrophysics.

Variation in the ultraviolet part of solar radiation modulates photochemistry in the stratosphere, and some products of the reactions can modulate cloud microphysics.
