    Electromagnetic UNIT 1 ELECTROMAGNETIC RADIATION Radiation Structure 1.1 Introduction Objectives 1.2 What is Electromagnetic Radiation? Wave Mechanical Model of Electromagnetic Radiation Quantum Model of Electromagnetic Radiation 1.3 Consequences of Wave Nature of Electromagnetic Radiation Interference Diffraction Transmission Refraction Reflection Scattering Polarisation 1.4 Interaction of EM Radiation with Matter Absorption Emission Raman Scattering 1.5 Summary 1.6 Terminal Questions 1.7 Answers 1.1 INTRODUCTION You would surely have seen a beautiful rainbow showing seven different colours during the rainy season. You know that this colourful spectrum is due to the separation or dispersion of the white light into its constituent parts by the rain drops. The rainbow spectrum is just a minute part of a much larger continuum of the radiations that come from the sun. These are called electromagnetic radiations and the continuum of the electromagnetic radiations is called the electromagnetic spectrum. In the first unit of this course you would learn about the electromagnetic radiation in terms of its nature, characteristics and properties. Spectroscopy is the study of interaction of electromagnetic radiation with matter. We would discuss the ways in which different types of electromagnetic radiation interact with matter and also the types of spectra that result as a consequence of the interaction. In the next unit you would learn about ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy ‒ a consequence of interaction of electromagnetic radiation in the ultraviolet-visible

  • A Comparative Study of Jadeite, Omphacite and Kosmochlor Jades from Myanmar, and Suggestions for a Practical Nomenclature
    Feature Article A Comparative Study of Jadeite, Omphacite and Kosmochlor Jades from Myanmar, and Suggestions for a Practical Nomenclature Leander Franz, Tay Thye Sun, Henry A. Hänni, Christian de Capitani, Theerapongs Thanasuthipitak and Wilawan Atichat Jadeitite boulders from north-central Myanmar show a wide variability in texture and mineral content. This study gives an overview of the petrography of these rocks, and classiies them into ive different types: (1) jadeitites with kosmochlor and clinoamphibole, (2) jadeitites with clinoamphibole, (3) albite-bearing jadeitites, (4) almost pure jadeitites and (5) omphacitites. Their textures indicate that some of the assemblages formed syn-tectonically while those samples with decussate textures show no indication of a tectonic overprint. Backscattered electron images and electron microprobe analyses highlight the variable mineral chemistry of the samples. Their extensive chemical and textural inhomogeneity renders a classiication by common gemmological methods rather dificult. Although a deinitive classiication of such rocks is only possible using thin-section analysis, we demonstrate that a fast and non-destructive identiication as jadeite jade, kosmochlor jade or omphacite jade is possible using Raman and infrared spectroscopy, which gave results that were in accord with the microprobe analyses. Furthermore, current classiication schemes for jadeitites are reviewed.

  • Intensity Wave Length
    Module 9 Radiative Transfer in the Atmosphere 9.1 Introduction It has been emphasized in earlier lectures that energy from Sun drives the circulation of the atmosphere and ocean. Earth receives energy from Sun as ultraviolet, visible and near-infrared radiation. This radiation band is called the short wave radiation or radiation with wavelengths λ < 4 µm . An equal amount of energy is re-emitted by earth to maintain an overall energy balance. Earth emits energy in the form of infrared thermal radiation or longwave radiation with wavelengths λ > 4 µm . These two bands shown in Fig. 9.1 pertain to the wavelength intervals given as, Band 1: Solar spectrum 0.1− 4 µm (1 µm = 10−6 m) Band 2: Infrared region 4 −100 µm Sun Earth Fig. 9.1 Blackbody emission at the temperatures of Sun and Earth. 6000 K 288 K Intensity Overlap region Overlap 0.1 0.5 1 5 10 50 100 Wave length ( µ m ) Microwave radiation is not important for energy balance of the earth, but it finds wide use in remote sensing of the earth system because it is capable of penetrating through clouds. The study of radiative transfer in atmosphere and ocean is important because it leads to (i) a better understanding of energy transfer in these two components of the climate system; and (ii) in interpreting remote sensing measurements from satellites. Radiation is described by flux, intensity and radiance; and there are certain terms also that are frequently used while discussing the mathematics of the radiative transfer. First of all, it is required to calculate a differential amount of radiant energy dEλ ( J ) in a wavelength ( µm ) interval λ and λ + dλ that crosses an area ( m2 ) element dA in time (seconds) interval dt in a direction confined by an arc dω of the solid angle (steradian abbreviated as sr ).
