Archiving CCD/Electronic Astronomical Data
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 30 March 2016
Extract
The availability and advances in two-dimensional electronic detectors, in particular the charge-coupled-devices (CCDs), are a great asset to astronomical imaging and spectroscopy because of their sensitivity, dynamic range, and linearity. In some cases photographic plates still offer an advantage to imaging of large size, but the advent of large format CCDs may make a figure of merit, the area per exposure time, much more favorable for CCDs.
