This book offers an essential compendium of astronomical
high-resolution techniques. Recent years have seen considerable
developments in such techniques, which are critical to advances in
many areas of astronomy. As reflected in the book, these techniques
can be divided into direct methods, interferometry, and
reconstruction methods, and can be applied to a huge variety of
astrophysical systems, ranging from planets, single stars and
binaries to active galactic nuclei, providing angular resolution in
the micro- to tens of milliarcsecond scales. Written by experts in
their fields, the chapters cover adaptive optics, aperture masking
imaging, spectra disentangling, interferometry, lucky imaging,
Roche tomography, imaging with interferometry, interferometry of
AGN, AGN reverberation mapping, Doppler- and magnetic imaging of
stellar surfaces, Doppler tomography, eclipse mapping, Stokes
imaging, and stellar tomography. This book is intended to enable a
next generation of astronomers to apply high-resolution techniques.
It informs readers on how to achieve the best angular resolution in
the visible and near-infrared regimes from diffraction-limited to
micro-arcsecond scales.
This book represents an attempt to fully review the phenomenon of
the blogosphere. The intention is to provide a reliable guide to
understanding and analyzing the world of the unimaginable number of
diverse blogs, each consisting of innumerable posts, which in their
entirety form the blogosphere. We go on to answer the questions of
how to grasp the complexity of the blogosphere and extract useful
knowledge from it. In setting out to write this book, our central
aim was to increase the reader's awareness and understanding of the
blogosphere phenomenon, including its structure and
characteristics. This can be achieved through a better
understanding of individual blogs and their particular technical
characteristics, as well as a deeper knowledge of how a single blog
is embedded and interconnected within the entire blogosphere. The
shape and form of the blogosphere can be described using the
analogy of different continents. In our description the defining
features and characteristics of the continents are illustrated by
paradigmatic example blogs. Following on from the structural
analysis we provide details of the available methods and describe
the complex challenge of automatically retrieving information from
the abundance of data contained in the blogosphere. Finally, we
present our blog search platform, called BLOGINTELLIGENCE and
describe all the tools and features we have developed during the
last couple of years to explore the blogosphere.
