The detection of the 18.7 micrometer /SIII/ line in M42
The importance of forbidden line radiation is considered, taking into account lines in the visible and the infrared range. The result of a theoretical study...
The Effect of Piston Errors on the Image Quality of Ground-Based Segmented Mirror Telescopes
The errors associated with a segmented primary mirror limit the image quality obtainable with those astronomical telescopes which employ them. It is necessary...
