102Near-infrared spectroscopy — Near IR absorption spectrum of dichloromethane showing complicated overlapping overtones of mid IR absorption features. Near infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) is a spectroscopic method that uses the near infrared region of the electromagnetic spectrum …
103Thermal infrared spectroscopy — (TIR spectroscopy) is the subset of infrared spectroscopy that deals with radiation emitted in the infrared part of the electromagnetic spectrum. The emitted infrared radiation, though similar to blackbody radiation, is different in that the… …
104Near infrared spectroscopy — (NIRS) is a spectroscopic method utilising the near infrared region of the electromagnetic spectrum (from about 800 nm to 2500 nm). Typical applications include pharmaceutical, medical diagnostics (including blood sugar and oximetry), food and… …
105Shortwave radiation — (SW) is a term used to describe the radiant energy in the visible (VIS), near ultraviolet (UV), and near infrared (NIR) wavelengths. The wavelength range is not always exactly defined, as there is no standard cut off for the NIR. Shortwave… …
106actinic radiation — noun electromagnetic radiation that can produce photochemical reactions • Syn: ↑actinic ray • Hypernyms: ↑electromagnetic radiation, ↑electromagnetic wave, ↑nonparticulate radiation • Hyponyms: ↑ …
107Forward looking infrared — FLIR redirects here. For the company, see FLIR Systems. Navigation infrared pod (NAVFLIR) by Thales Forward looking infrared (FLIR) cameras, typically used on military aircraft, use an imaging technology that senses infrared radiation.[1] The… …
108Digital infrared thermal imaging in health care — Colors indicate increases or decreases in infrared radiation emitted from the body surface Digital Infrared Thermal Imaging (DITI) is a diagnostic technique that is non invasive and involves no exposure to radiation. During an exam, a DITI camera …
109Earth's radiation balance — is the equation of the incoming and outgoing thermal radiation.The incoming solar radiation is short wave, therefore the equation below is called the short wave radiation balance Qs:::Qs = G R = D + H R or depending on the albedo (back reflection …
110Diffuse Infrared Background Experiment — DIRBE instrument lightpath Diffuse Infrared Background Experiment (DIRBE)[1] was an experiment on NASA s COBE mission,[1] to survey the diffuse infrared s …
