Multiband Observations

Multiband observations involve studying astronomical objects across different wavelengths of light—such as radio, infrared, visible, ultraviolet, X-ray, and gamma rays. Each band reveals unique information about the object's properties, like temperature, composition, and processes. By using multiple bands simultaneously or sequentially, scientists gain a comprehensive understanding of phenomena such as stars, galaxies, or black holes, since different physical conditions emit energy in different parts of the spectrum. This approach enables a more complete and detailed picture of the universe, helping researchers uncover insights that are not accessible through a single observing method.
