Description
In 1946 at the beginning of the cold war, the USSR government organized a special Institute on Infrared Technique and Electron Optics, later renamed the Federal Scientific Center ""Orion."" On the occasion of the Orion Center's 60th anniversary, this volume chronicles the development and achievements of IR techniques, photoelectronics, and other defense technologies in the former USSR and Russia. It contains nearly 300 photographs of researchers and IR devices and systems, most published here for the first time.
