CIE 202:2011
Spectral Responsivity Measurement of Detectors, Radiometers and Photometers, December 2011.  This Technical Report gives recommendations for spectral radiant power, irradiance and radiance responsivity measurement of single element detectors in the 200 nm to 2 500 nm wavelength range. It covers measurement setups and methods, summarizes the types and basic properties of typical detectors, radiometers and photometers, and gives guidance on how to choose a reference detector. Primary detector standards and procedures for the realization of units and responsivity functions are the responsibility of national metrology institutes and are not discussed in this report. This publication supersedes CIE 64-1984 “Determination of the Spectral Responsivity of Optical Radiation Detectors.” The publication is written in English, with a short summary in French and German. It consists of 82 pages with 41 figures.  This publication is available via the website of the CIE Central Bureau.

CIE 201:2011
Recommendations on Minimum Levels of Solar UV Exposure, November 2011.  This Technical Report addresses the issue of sensible exposure to solar ultraviolet (UV) radiation. The scientific evidence of beneficial effects of solar exposure has been reviewed, in particular on the incidence and mortality to cancers other than skin cancer. Although the evidence is not unequivocal, the committee has found considerable evidence to deem it plausible that solar exposure may reduce the incidence and mortality of colorectal cancer. The evidence for similar effects on breast and prostate cancer and on melanoma is less, but such effects are considered as plausible, too. Possibly the production of vitamin D plays a role in this respect. The report is split into two parts: The first part (Part I) gives guidance for a sensible exposure regime to profit from beneficial health impacts from moderate solar (UV) exposure, the second part (Part II) is a review of scientific data that underpin the guidance in Part I. The publication is written in English, with a short summary in French and German. It consists of 88 pages with 4 figures and 20 tables.  This publication is available via the website of the CIE Central Bureau.

CIE 200:2011
CIE Supplementary System of Photometry, October 2011.  The CIE Supplementary System of Photometry evaluates lights in terms of comparative brightness relationship at any level. The system introduces the concept of equivalent luminance to describe brightness of a light or an object at any level including mesopic levels. The system develops a photometric model to calculate brightness-related equivalent luminance by using three components of existing photometric and colorimetric quantities. The use of the system and an example of calculation are also described. Results of testing the system with experimental brightness matching data are given in an appendix. The publication is written in English, with a short summary in French and German. It consists of 21 pages with 5 figures and 1 table.  This publication is available via the website of the CIE Central Bureau.

CIE 197:2011
Proceedings of the 27th Session of the CIE, 9 – 16 July 2011, Sun City, South Africa.  The Proceedings of the 27th Session of the CIE comprise two volumes. Volume 1, subdivided into two parts, contains on 1230 pages the texts of the Invited Papers, Presented Papers and Posters presented at the Session as well as the Introductions to the Workshops.  Volume 2 contains the official reports of the administrative and technical meetings of the Session, thus presenting an overview on the technical work in CIE achieved during the quadrennium. This two part publication is available via the website of the CIE Central Bureau.

CIE 199:2011
Methods for Evaluating Colour Differences in Images, September 2011, Bern, Switzerland. This Technical Report is concerned with the evaluation of colour differences between two similar images where the output media and the output viewing conditions are similar for both images. The publication is written in English, with a short summary in French and German. It consists of 50 pages with 22 figures and 7 tables. This publication is available via the website of the CIE Central Bureau.

CIE Standard S 017/E:2011
ILV: International Lighting Vocabulary, August 2011, Bern, Switzerland. CIE has published Standard CIE S 017/E:2011 ILV: International Lighting Vocabulary. This new edition of the International Lighting Vocabulary (ILV) is the result of intensive work carried out by the Divisions of the CIE to update, and supplement where necessary, the contents of the previous edition (1987). Many new terms have been added, to reflect changes in technologies and practices, existing terms have been updated as necessary, and obsolete terms have been removed. The Standard comprises 203 pages and presents the definitions of 1448 terms related to light and lighting. This publication is available via the website of the CIE Central Bureau.

CIE Standard S 014-3/E:2011
Colorimetry – Part 3: CIE Tristimulus Values, July 2011, Bern, Switzerland. Colour stimuli with different spectral distributions can look alike. An important function of colorimetry is to determine which stimuli look alike to a given observer with a given set of colour-matching functions. This Standard is based on long-standing CIE recommendations (CIE15:2004 Colorimetry, 3rd edition) for the calculation of tristimulus values. This publication is available via the website of the CIE Central Bureau.

CIE x036:2010
Proceedings of CIE Expert Symposium on Spectral
and Imaging Methods for Photometry and Radiometry
, 30-31 August 2010, Bern, Switzerland. The publication consists of 163 pages including 35 contributions with 169 figures and 20 tables. This publication is available via the website of the CIE Central Bureau.

CIE 192:2010
Practical Daylight Sources for Colorimetry
This publication discusses the state-of-the-art of practical daylight sources for colorimetry. It provides information on these lamps and devices used for illumination in the visual evaluation and instrumental measurement of non-fluorescent and fluorescent specimens. This publication is available via the website of the CIE Central Bureau.

CIE 191:2010
Recommended System for Mesopic Photometry Based on Visual Performance
This report deals with visual task performance based approaches to mesopic photometry, with a major aim to establish appropriate mesopic spectral sensitivity functions to serve as the foundation of a system of mesopic photometry. A review of the most important visual tasks and the range of visual conditions typically encountered in the context of night-time driving is given. The publication is written in English, with a short summary in French and German. This publication is available via the website of the CIE Central Bureau.
