An Adaptive Real-Time Detection Algorithm for Dim and Small Photoelectric GSO Debris.
TL;DR: The processing results of a large number of measured data show that the algorithm can detect dim geostationary earth orbit (GEO) and non-GEO debris in GSO belt stably and efficiently, and the processing speed meets the real-time requirements, with strong adaptive ability, and has high practical application value.
Journal ArticleDOI
Investigations of associated multi-band observations for GEO space debris
TL;DR: In this paper, a multi-band observation of the Geosynchronous Earth Orbit space debris is performed to investigate the improvement and promotion while infrared and gVrVrI information are provided.

UBVRI Photometric Standard Stars Around the Celestial Equator: Updates and Additions
TL;DR: In this article, the Johnson-Kron-Cousins photometric system was extended to include 202 stars around the sky, and centered at the celestial equator, and the entire list of standard stars in this paper encompasses the magnitude range 8.90 < V < 16.30 and the color index range −0.35 < (B − V) < +2.30.

Introduction to Radiometry and Photometry
TL;DR: In this article, the spectral properties of a blackbody radiation detector were investigated and the spectral selectivity of the detector was evaluated using the integral calculus of light and luminance, and some basic colour concepts were applied to the energy and illumination performance.
