Ultraviolet ( UV ) light curing adhesives, also known as light curing materials ( LCM ), have become popular within the manufacturing sector due to their rapid curing time and strong bond strength.

It also carried the Heavy Ion Counter, an engineering experiment added to assess the potentially hazardous charged particle environments the spacecraft flew through, and an added Extreme Ultraviolet detector associated with the UV spectrometer on the scan platform.

It also causes sunburn, and has other medical effects such as the production of vitamin D. Ultraviolet light is strongly attenuated by Earth's ozone layer, so that the amount of UV varies greatly with latitude and has been partially responsible for many biological adaptations, including variations in human skin color in different regions of the globe.

Ultraviolet ( UV ) light is electromagnetic radiation with a wavelength shorter than that of visible light, but longer than X-rays, that is, in the range 10 nm to 400 nm, corresponding to photon energies from 3 eV to 124 eV.

In the case of Ultraviolet Photoelectron Spectroscopy ( UPS ), the surface of a solid sample is irradiated with ultraviolet ( UV ) light and the kinetic energy of the emitted electrons is analysed.

Ultraviolet – visible spectroscopy or ultraviolet-visible spectrophotometry ( UV-Vis or UV / Vis ) refers to absorption spectroscopy or reflectance spectroscopy in the ultraviolet-visible spectral region.

Most reptiles also require some form of Ultraviolet radiation which can be provided through a UV bulb.

Ultraviolet light ( UV ) is very effective at inactivating cysts, in low turbidity water.

Ultraviolet lights have many uses, but black lights are essential when UV light without visible light is needed, particularly in observing fluorescence, the colored glow that many substances emit when exposed to UV.

* Ultraviolet light ( UV light )-Men with psoriasis who have been treated using UV light and a drug known as psoralen have an increased risk of penile cancer.

** Ultraviolet ( UV ) radiation is ionizing but it is not penetrating, so it can be shielded by thin opaque layers such as sunscreen, clothing, and protective eyewear.

* Ultraviolet light irradiation ( UV, from a germicidal lamp ) is useful only for sterilization of surfaces and some transparent objects.

This payload consisted of the Cryogenic Infrared Radiance Instrumentation for Shuttle ( CIRRIS-1A ) experiment, Far Ultraviolet Camera experiment ( FAR UV ), the Uniformly Redundant Array ( URA ), the Quadrupole Ion Neutral Mass Spectrometer ( QINMS ), and the Horizon Ultraviolet Program ( HUP ) experiment.

The Southwest Ultraviolet Imaging system ( SWUIS ) was based around a Maksutov-design ultraviolet ( UV ) telescope and a UV-sensitive, image-intensified Charge-Coupled Device ( CCD ) camera that frames at video frame rates.

The 13-ton payload consisted of the 3 ASTRO-1 Ultraviolet ( UV ) Telescopes and the Broad Band X-ray Telescope.

* NSF ( National Science Foundation ) Ultraviolet ( UV ) Monitoring Network with picture

Ultraviolet ( UV ) filters block ultraviolet radiation, but let visible light through.

* Ultraviolet germicidal irradiation-UVGI can be used to sterilize air that passes UV lamps via forced air.

The proposed instrument package for the series initially included: the Advanced Baseline Imager ( ABI ); the Hyperspectral Environmental Suite ( HES ); the Space Environment In-Situ Suite ( SEISS ), which includes two Magnetospheric Particle Sensors ( MPS-HI and MPS-LO ), an Energetic Heavy Ion Sensor ( EHIS ), and a Solar and Galactic Proton Sensor ( SGPS ); the Solar Imaging Suite ( SIS ), which includes the Solar Ultraviolet Imager ( SUVI ), the Solar X-Ray Sensor ( XRS ), and the Extreme Ultraviolet Sensor ( EUVS ); the Geostationary Lightning Mapper ( GLM ); and the Magnetometer.

In addition to archiving and storing HST science data, STScI holds data from 13 other missions including the International Ultraviolet Explorer ( IUE ), the Extreme Ultraviolet Explorer ( EUVE ), the Far Ultraviolet Spectroscopic Explorer ( FUSE ), and the Galaxy Evolution Explorer ( GALEX ).

Other films inspired by Gloria include Ultraviolet ( 2006 ), which uses the premise of a woman on the run with a little boy and transposes the story to a dystopian futuristic setting, and Erick Zonca's 2008 film Julia, starring Tilda Swinton.

This image merges data acquired by Swift's Ultraviolet / Optical Telescope ( blue and green ) and X-Ray Telescope ( red ).

Ultraviolet astronomy is generally used to refer to observations of electromagnetic radiation at ultraviolet wavelengths between approximately 10 and 320 nanometres ; shorter wavelengths — higher energy photons — are studied by X-ray astronomy and gamma ray astronomy.

Ultraviolet light with wavelengths shorter than 400 nm tends to be absorbed in the cornea and lens, where it can produce injuries at relatively low powers due to photochemical damage.

The Ultraviolet catastrophe is the error at short wavelengths in the Rayleigh – Jeans law ( depicted as " classical theory " in the graph ) for the energy emitted by an ideal black-body.

Ultraviolet radiation is invisible, but a small fraction of visible light passes through the filtering material, with wavelengths no longer than 400-410 nm, and as a result, when operating the lamp emits a dim purple or violet glow.

The primary objectives were round-the-clock observations of the celestial sphere in ultraviolet and X-ray spectral wavelengths with the ASTRO-1 observatory, consisting of four telescopes: Hopkins Ultraviolet Telescope ( HUT ); Wisconsin Ultraviolet Photo-Polarimeter Experiment ( WUPPE ); Ultraviolet Imaging Telescope ( UIT ), mounted on the Instrument Pointing System ( IPS ).

Ultraviolet light has wavelengths between roughly 10nm and 350nm.

ATLAS-3 instruments, mounted on a Spacelab pallet in the cargo bay, included Atmospheric Trace Molecule Spectroscopy ( ATMOS ), which collected more data on trace gases in the atmosphere than on all three of its previous flights combined ; Shuttle Solar Backscatter Ultraviolet Spectrometer ( SSBUV ), which took ozone measurements to calibrate ozone monitor on aging NOAA-9 satellite as well as cooperative measurements with other ATLAS-3 instruments ; Active Cavity Radiometer Irradiance Monitor ( ACRIM ), which took extremely precise measurements of the sun's total radiation for 30 orbits as calibration reference for sister instrument on Upper Atmosphere Research Satellite ( UARS ) launched in 1991 ; Measurement of the Solar Constant ( SOLCON ), provided by Belgium, which also measured solar radiation but as reference point to track changes over years ; Solar Spectrum Measurement ( SOLSPEC ), French instrument, measured sun's radiation as function of wavelength ; and Solar Ultraviolet Spectral Irradiance Monitor ( SUSIM ), which collected its highest precision solar ultraviolet radiation measurements in its 15-year lifetime.

Ultraviolet radiation in some aspects occupies a middle ground, in having some features of both ionizing and non-ionizing radiation.

* Ultraviolet radiation is discovered by Johann Wilhelm Ritter.

Ultraviolet and higher frequencies, such as X-rays or gamma rays are ionizing, and these pose their own special hazards: see radiation and radiation poisoning.

Ultraviolet radiation and heat accelerate their demise ; they perish after being heated to for 90 min, or to for 12 min.
