  • This article says nothing that isn't covered in Crookes radiometer. It should either be deleted or changed to be a more general description of a radiometer. Pdefer 02:50, 2004 Oct 31 (UTC)

[edit] Page resurrection

The redirection results in several links to the word radiometer incorrectly pointing to the Crookes radiometer which is just one (obsolete) type of radiometer and clearly not the correct link for the word radiometer. I have therefore resurrected a broad definition of a radiometer and provided a link to the Crookes radiometer.

The article could usefully be expanded with more examples of radiometers.

[edit] photo detectors

There is a great deal more to say about radiometers! International Light made scientific instruments, and they have now merged with Gilway, in Massachusetts US. Specialized units called "belt monitors" are sold for monitoring UV curing facilities. This page has a number of detailed radiometer detector spectral curves, from 200-2000 nm:[1] It would be great to have details about photo detectors of various types in WP.-69.87.203.9 11:51, 30 May 2007 (UTC)
