The present conference discusses topics in atmospheric UV radiance, UV detectors, and UV airborne sensors. Attention is given to a UV limb imaging experiment, UV ionospheric remote sensing with the Polar BEAR satellite, photon counting by means of microchannel plate (MCP) intensified electrographic cameras, the use of electron-bombarded virtual-phase CCDs and UV imaging detectors, results of dynamic range measurements on multianode microchannel-array detectors, and confined quantum state photomultiplier design. Also discussed are linear array-based UV spectrographs, a multianode MCP for plasma diagnostics, neutral-density UV filters obeying Beer's law, calibration and performance of the UV plume instrument, a magnetic-focus MCP image tube's evaluation, large CCD arrays with enhanced UV performance, images from a UV solar-blind photon-counting camera, and the design of high power laser polarizers.
