This led to the discovery of numerous cosmic radio sources, the physical causes of which are explained, as is the operation of a radio telescope. Even small radio telescopes can observe radiation from the Sun and other radio sources, as well as 21-cm radiation from the Milky Way. Through interferometry, a much higher resolution can be achieved than with individual radio telescopes. As a result, radio astronomical research can contribute to many current questions in astronomy, cosmology, and physics. This Springer essential is a translation of the original German 1st edition essentials, Radioastronomie by Thomas Lauterbach, published by Springer Fachmedien Wiesbaden GmbH, part of Springer Nature in 2020. The translation was done with the help of artificial intelligence (machine translation by the service DeepL.com). A subsequent human revision was done primarily in terms of content, so that the book will read stylistically differently from a conventional translation. Springer Nature works continuously to further the development of tools for the production of books and on the related technologies to support the authors. The Contents Brief outline of the history of radio astronomy and its discoveries. Electromagnetic waves Cosmic radio radiation How a radio telescope works Typical observations with a small radio telescope Interferometry, current research topics in radio astronomy and own entry into radio astronomy The Target Group Anyone who is looking for a compact introduction to radio astronomy, whether at universities, schools, observatories, or out of personal interest. The Author Thomas Lauterbach is professor of physics at the Nuremberg Institute of Technology (Technische Hochschule Nurnberg Georg Simon Ohm) and head of the radio astronomy special interest group of the Astronomical Society in the European Metropolitan Region Nuremberg. 001449348 588__ $$aOnline resource; title from PDF title page (SpringerLink, viewed September 15, 2022). 001449348 650_0 $$aRadio astronomy. 001449348 655_0 $$aElectronic books. 001449348 77608 $$iPrint version: $$z3658360348$$z9783658360344$$w(OCoLC)1274199579 001449348 830_0 $$aEssentials (Springer (Firm)) 001449348 852__ $$bebk 001449348 85640 $$3Springer Nature$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-658-36035-1$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 001449348 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1449348$$pGLOBAL_SET 001449348 980__ $$aBIB 001449348 980__ $$aEBOOK 001449348 982__ $$aEbook 001449348 983__ $$aOnline 001449348 994__ $$a92$$bISE
