Abstract
Based on the generalization of the scientific work experience in the area of astronomy at the Center for Astrophysical Research of the North Kazakhstan University, the statement of observations of selected class objects in the near infrared region of the spectrum is justified.The expected effect in this case is to increase the contrast of images of noctilucent clouds fields and other extended objects, as well as the registration of new types of meteor phenomena.The implementation of the task involves the use of receivers that are available at the CAR of the NKU, including digital cameras, an optical image amplifier and infrared light filters.As a result of testing the devices, the CANON 2000 model with CANONZOOMLENSEF-S 10-22 lens was recognized as the most promising digital camera, which has the largest field of view with good image quality.This camera has been successfully used for optical registration of noctilucent clouds and meteors.Its application for observations in the infrared range was achieved by using a light filter 093 = RG830.Experiments conducted to obtain daytime images of tropospheric clouds and images of noctilucent clouds have yielded positive results.In addition, experiments were carried out to obtain infrared images of cloud fields by using the NPM-8 KM complex (electronic brightness amplifier) + CANON 600D (digital camera), which can also be considered successful within the framework of the task being implemented.The prospects of using this equipment for solving scientific problems are considered.
