WHAT DOES ACTINOMETRY MEAN IN ENGLISH?

Actinometer

Actinometers are instruments used to measure the heating power of radiation. They are used in meteorology to measure solar radiation as pyrheliometers. An actinometer is a chemical system or physical device which determines the number of photons in a beam integrally or per unit time. This name is commonly applied to devices used in the ultraviolet and visible wavelength ranges. For example, solutions of iron oxalate can be used as a chemical actinometer, while bolometers, thermopiles, and photodiodes are physical devices giving a reading that can be correlated to the number of photons detected.

Definition of actinometry in the English dictionary

The definition of actinometry in the dictionary is the measurement of the intensity of radiation, esp of the sun's rays.
