T.V. Type Systems in Astronomy
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 25 April 2016
Extract
Over the past century the techniques and progress of optical astronomy have depended largely on the performance and limitations of the photographic plate. The sort of observations we can make, the faintest limits to which they have been carried and the design of telescopes and instruments have all been circumscribed by the available plates. Over the next decade we will see our emulsions gradually replaced for most applications by one or more of a variety of photo-electric imaging systems now under development.
