Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book is a fascinating exploration of the spectroscope, an instrument that revolutionized our understanding of light and the universe. It was first developed in the early 19th century, and quickly became a powerful tool for scientists seeking to understand the nature of stars and the composition of matter. The author takes the reader on a journey through the history of spectroscopy, explaining the fundamental principles of light refraction and dispersion. The book delves into the discoveries of scientists like Wollaston and Fraunhofer, who were the first to identify dark lines in the solar spectrum, indicating the absence of certain wavelengths of light. These dark lines, which are now known as Fraunhofer lines, became a key to unlocking the mysteries of the sun's composition and the existence of different elements in the stars. The book explains the methods used to analyze light with a spectroscope and the implications of these analyses for understanding the cosmos. It is a must-read for anyone seeking to grasp the foundational concepts of spectroscopy and its role in advancing our knowledge of the universe. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Seller Inventory # 9781332240760_0
