Tools of radio astronomy : problems and solutions /
Thomas L. Wilson and Susanne Huttemeister
- 2nd ed.
- Switzerland Springer 2018
- 180 p.
This book of problems and solutions is an update of the edition. The largest changes are (1) the addition of new problems, (2) the elimination of problems no longer relevant, and (3) a rearrangement to follow the exact order and numbering of the problem sets at the end of corresponding chapters in Tools of Radio Astronomy, by Wilson. We have tried to make this book as self-contained as possible. Thus, we have included figures, equations, and tables from 'Tools' that are directly relevant to the problems. In addition, we have added a few additional, necessary explanations in the formulation of the problems and the solutions. Usually, we have used a notation with lower case names for chapters and problems which are in this volume, but upper case when these are in 'Tools'.
