Abstract

Abstract A composite filter (i) which transmits starlight radiation having a wavelength of 400 up to but not including 600 nm and (ii) does not transmit radiation having a wavelength of 600 to 900 nm comprising at least one organic film filter and at least one glass filter, in which said organic film filter absorbs light radiation having a wavelength of 600-700 nm and said glass filter comprises a glass plate colored with a cobalt-containing salt which absorbs light radiation having a wavelength of 700-900 nm.
