Abstract
The effects of changing spectral radiance during the scan of an interferometer on the spectra obtained from the interferogram are considered. For well-behaved variations the integrated radiance and base line are the same as at the zero path difference of the interferometer. The changes in the appearance of spectral features are hardly changed beyond a few resolution elements from the changing features.
