[ noun ] a metric unit of length equal to one hundredth of a meter
Synonyms Used in print (Cornell H. Mayer, "Radio Emission of the Moon...)The radio_radiation of the sun which is reflected from the moon and planets should be negligible compared with their thermal_emission at centimeter wave_lengths , except possibly at times of exceptional outbursts of solar radio_noise . The quiescent level of centimeter wave-length solar_radiation would increase the average disk brightness temperature by less than 1 ` K . Therefore , neglecting the extreme outbursts , reflected solar_radiation is not expected to cause sizable errors in the measurements of planetary radiation in the centimeter - and decimeter wave-length range .
