Subtopics

Analytical chemistry

• Atomic spectrometry (disambiguation) [r]: Spectrometric techniques, in all spectra, used to analyze atoms rather than molecules ^[e]
  • Atomic absorption spectrometry [r]: Quantitative chemical analysis technique that measures the absorption spectra of elements, at the ground state, introduced into an excited medium; this produces pure electronic transitions free from vibrational and rotational transitions ^[e]
  • Atomic emission spectrometry [r]: Techniques that measure the direct production of photons, of specified wavelengths, usually from a flame, plasma, arc, or spark, by atoms in an excited state; unless otherwise specified, the photons are assumed to be in the visible, infrared, or ultraviolet spectra; there is no illumination of the target atoms as in atomic fluorescence spectrometry ^[e]

• Nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy [r]: A property that magnetic nuclei have in a magnetic field and applied electromagnetic (EM) pulse, which cause the nuclei to absorb energy from the EM pulse and radiate this energy back out. ^[e]

• Ultraviolet absorption spectometry [r]: Add brief definition or description

Remote sensing

• Remote sensing [r]: Add brief definition or description
  • Spectroscopic MASINT [r]: A electro-optical measurement and signature intelligence technique to measure the electromagnetic spectrum reflected from or emitted by an object, typically within the infrared through ultraviolet wavelength range, and compare it to spectral signatures of known objects ^[e]
    • Spatial resolution [r]: In spectroscopic MASINT and other remote sensing, the correspondence between each recorded pixel and the square real-world area that the pixel covers ^[e]
    • Spectral resolution [r]: In multispectral scanning, the number of discrete frequency (or equivalent) bands recorded in an individual pixel. Remember that relatively coarse spectral resolution from one sensor, such as the spectroscopic analyzer that reveals a "bush" is painted plaster, may greatly enhance the ultimate value of a different sensor with finer spectral resolution. ^[e]
    • Radiometric resolution [r]: The number of levels of energy recorded, per pixel, in each band of a multispectral sensor ^[e]
    • Temporal resolution [r]: The intervals at which the target is sensed by a remote sensing or measurement and signature intelligence sensor. This is meaningful only in synthetic imaging, comparison over a longer time base, or in producing full-motion imagery. ^[e]
    • Geospatial resolution [r]: Add brief definition or description
