ive been looking into aviris-
http://trs-new.jpl.nasa.gov/dspace/bitstream/2014/6599/1/03-0421.pdf
from what ive seen in the pdf, the range is from 400nm to 2500nm. now ultraviolet light starts at 400nm:
Ultraviolet (UV) light is electromagnetic radiation with a wavelength shorter than that of visible light, but longer than x-rays, in the range 400 nm to 10 nm, and energies from 3 eV to 124 eV.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ultraviolet
now as for thermite:
The thermite reaction releases dangerous ultra-violet (UV) light requiring that the reaction not be viewed directly, or that special eye protection (for example, a welder's mask) be worn.
so did the aviris even "see" the heat from thermite (if any was there). it wasnt "looking" at the less than 400 nm range of a heat source.
interesting article that talks about pyrocool being sprayed on wtc.
"This is in part due to the use of a special foaming agent called Pyrocool FEF. On 27 September, the officials ordered 2000 gallons of the liquid, which when added to water produces a slippery, low-viscosity foam.
Berger adds that "Pyrocool also contains two powerful ultra-violet absorbers." These chemicals absorb the high-energy emissions from the fire, which are most able to spread the fire to other materials, and re-emit the energy at a longer, lower-energy wavelength."
does anyone know if we can find some data concerning uv rays in the wtc rubble? ill look around.
does this make avaris null and void when talking about possible thermite since thermite would be giving off uv rays and not rays greater than 400 nm?
