Optical and Infrared Pyrometry
Reference Material

The following is a list of reference texts that we have found to be helpful to those who are interested in learning more about the technology behind optical and infrared pyrometry. If a book is listed as being in print on this list, that means that to the best of our knowledge, it was in print at the time that this list was prepared in April of 2000. We suggest that the student use the well known web site www.bookfinder.com to locate books that are out of print. Also, at bookfinder.com try typing in "pyrometry" or "infrared" to see if there are other texts that are of interest.
