Excerpt from Manual of Advanced Optics
This small manual is an attempt to meet the needs of the more advanced students of Optics. It has been written primarily for the use of the author's classes in the University of Chicago, and it covers the work done by them during three months of their senior year. It is hoped, however, that it will be found useful at other universities and will serve as a stimulus to a more extensive study of this most fascinating branch of science.

Excerpt from Manual of Advanced Optics
Anyone who has not used the methods of measurement which are based upon the interference of light waves will find it difficult to appreciate the high degree of accuracy which can thereby be attained. That these methods are not more commonly used seems to be due in large measure to the fact that they have hitherto not received adequate treatment in the texts which are in general use in physical laboratories. For this reason this "Manual of Advanced Optics," in which these methods are for the first time presented in text-book form to students of physics, is very timely, and should prove a valuable aid in making these very practical and useful optical methods familiar to all who may at any time find it necessary to make measurements of great precision. It is also hoped that the book will serve to promote interest in the general study of experimental optics. Those who desire to enter into optical investigation can not get a better foundation for future work than by studying the optical theories here presented, and performing the experiments described.

Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book is a guide to advanced optics that teaches methods of measuring light waves based on the phenomena of interference. With roots in the work of physicists such as Albert Michelson, this book imparts the experience of the author in presenting optical theory to students at the University of Chicago. Aimed at advanced students of physics, this book begins with a discussion of interference and diffraction, then explains how to determine the resolving power of a spectrometer. The book also covers total reflection, the diffraction grating, and the spectroscopy of light. Understand the development of optical theory, from the work of early greats like Huygens to the ideas of Einstein. By presenting both the theoretical ideas and the practical methods used to explore them, this book provides a unique grounding for the understanding of the nature of light. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Nº de ref. del artículo: 9781332058402_0
