title: Tools of Radio Astronomy: Problems And Solutions (Astronomy and Astrophysics Library)
author:  T. L. Wilson 
description: From the reviews:<br />"In your library you should have already another book, Tools of Radio Astronomy by Rohlfs and Wilson (A&amp;A Library). The present text is its companion. Here we are given graduate level problems, chapter by chapter, with answers for that book. Now this sounds an excellent thing for students, does it not? The reviewer wishes he had had such help and guidance."<br />The Irish Astronomical Journal, 2001 <br />
zlib_text: AN INTRODUCTION TO RADIO ASTRONOMY
  Fourth Edition
  Radio astronomy is an active and rapidly expanding ﬁeld owing to advances in computing
  techniques, with several important new instruments on the horizon. This text provides
  a thorough introduction to radio astronomy and its contribution to our understanding of
  the Universe, bridging the gap between basic introductions and research-level treatments.
  It begins by covering the fundamental physics of radio techniques, before moving on to
  single-dish telescopes and aperture-synthesis arrays. Fully updated and extensively rewrit-
  ten, this Fourth Edition places greater emphasis on techniques, with a detailed discussion
  of interferometry in particular and an introduction to digital techniques in the appendices.
  The science sections have been fully revised, with new author Peter Wilkinson bringing
  added expertise to the sections on quasars and active galaxies. Spanning the entirety of
  radio astronomy, this is an engaging introduction for studen
