Written by an active professor and researcher in the field, it begins by explaining why conducting observations at radio frequencies is so important, then reviews essential physics concepts corresponding to a sophomore-level curriculum or higher. Next, the book introduces students to single dish telescopes and interferometers. The most commonly encountered emission mechanisms seen in radio astronomy are then explained, along with examples of astronomical sources broadly divided into the types of sources seen in galactic and extragalactic observations. Each chapter provides examples and exercises suitable for homework assignments. Also included is an appendix of useful supplementary material. Altogether, the book is a comprehensive, yet digestible starting point for physics and astronomy undergraduates looking to understand the basics of radio astronomy. 000958896 588__ $$aOnline resource; title from PDF title page (SpringerLink, viewed January 26, 2021). 000958896 650_0 $$aRadio astronomy. 000958896 650_0 $$aAstronomy$$vObservations. 000958896 650_0 $$aMicrowaves. 000958896 650_0 $$aOptical engineering. 000958896 77608 $$z3319169815 000958896 830_0 $$aUndergraduate lecture notes in physics,$$x2192-4791 000958896 852__ $$bebk 000958896 85640 $$3SpringerLink$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-319-16982-8$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 000958896 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:958896$$pGLOBAL_SET 000958896 980__ $$aEBOOK 000958896 980__ $$aBIB 000958896 982__ $$aEbook 000958896 983__ $$aOnline 000958896 994__ $$a92$$bISE
