Envisat's ASAR [Advanced Synthetic Aperture Radar] instrument is the first permanent spaceborne radar to incorporate dual-polarisation capabilities-the instrument can transmit and receive signals in either horizontal or vertical polarisation. This Alternating Polarisation(AP) mode can improve the capability of a SAR instrument to classify different types of terrain. Because the reflective properties of a surface are dependant on the polarisation of the incoming radar signal, the use of more than one type of polarisation provides valuable extra information. The ASAR AP mode provides two simultaneous images(or channels) of the same scene taken with different radar polarisation options. Since the radar can transmit and receive in both the horizontal(H) and vertical(V) polarisations, researchers can create image pairs, with possible combinations, HH&VV... HH&HV and VV&VH. A cross-polarisation option employs a channel in which the polarisation signal transmitted by the spacecraft is received on a different polarisation, i. e. transmitted using a horizontal polarisation and received on the vertical for an HV combination, or the reverse for a VH combination. 3, record 9, English, - advanced%20synthetic%20aperture%20radar

Microwave scatterometer... measures the microwave scattering or reflective properties of surfaces. It is also non-imaging, and is specifically designed to measure backscattering. This requires that it detect more detailed spectral information than imaging radar but has reduced spatial resolution and aerial coverage. The surface is scanned in two or more directions, usually by multiple sensors. The primary application of microwave scatterometers is to measure wind vectors(that is, speed and direction) over the ocean surface. This is based on the principle of ocean ’roughness’ being caused by wind and resulting in a characteristic surface pattern which may be identified by its scattering properties. 4, record 11, English, - microwave%20scatterometer

Un réseau est toute structure périodique qui impose à une onde plane incidente une variation périodique de son amplitude, de sa phase ou des deux à la fois. Dans son principe général de fonctionnement, un réseau diffracte l'onde incidente. [...] Le principe des réseaux a été découvert en 1785 par Rittenhouse [...] Les premiers réseaux furent construits par Young et Fraunhöfer. Le réseau le plus simple est constitué par un ensemble de fentes parallèles réalisant une transmittance en amplitude périodique binaire. Les premiers réseaux d'excellente qualité furent réalisés par Rowland en 1882 (en traçant des traits équidistants sur une lame de verre à l'aide d'une pointe en diamant). Actuellement, on réalise d'excellents réseaux à partir de l'interférence d'ondes planes : ce sont les réseaux holographiques (réseaux sinusoïdaux dont la transmittance est proportionnelle à l'intensité du phénomène d'interférences). 1, record 13, French, - r%C3%A9seau

Many who have used film in a domed theater have come to the conclusion that the domed surface is not the best venue for most motion pictures. For a film to look good on the dome, the dome typically has to have a reflectance of about 30%. Planetarium projectors, especially Digistar, work best with a reflectance above 80%. The darker surface is needed for film to reduce the cross-reflectance that causes a film to look washed-out on a more reflective dome. 2, record 15, English, - cross%2Dreflectance
