Time-resolved observation of highly transient events by a novel digital high-speed camera

点击翻译按钮获取中文摘要

Highly transient, that is, rapidly changing, events occur in nature and in almost every field of science and engineering. Knowledge and understanding of these processes is vital for the design of better and innovative machines, materials and instruments. Valuable insight into these processes can be gained if one can visualise them by means of high-speed photography. This application seeks the acquisition of a novel and unique digital camera system that would allow one to observe rapidly occurring processes with unprecedented clarity. The availability of such a system would significantly strengthen cutting-edge research activities in various disciplines that would ultimately lead to the development of original and innovative products.
