Long baseline optical/infrared interferometers, such as the Mark III Stellar Interferometer1 on Mt. Wilson and the ASEPS-0 Testbed Interferometer2 on Palomar Mountain, California, have good capabilities for narrow-angle and wide-angle astrometry with very high precision. Using the Mark III Interferometer many spectroscopic binaries became “visual” for the first time. The measurement accuracy of angular separation is 0.2 mas, the smallest separation measured between two components is 2 mas, the maximum magnitude difference is 4 mag, and the smallest semimajor axis is 4 mas.

Optical interferometry is entering a new age with several ground- based long-baseline observatories now making observations of unprecedented spatial resolution.

Long-baseline interferometry at optical and near-infrared wavelengths is an emerging technology which is quickly becoming a useful tool to investigate stellar atmospheres and to compare observations with models. Stellar atmosphere models have so far mainly been constrained by comparisons with stellar spectra which are integrated over the stellar disks. Interferometric observations provide spatially and spectrally resolved information and can thus provide important complementary observational information which can be compared to model predictions.

In 1970, Labeyrie computed the power spectrum of a set of specklegrams and showed that they contained diffraction-limited information.

AbstractDamage following static indentation of jute/hemp (50 wt.% total fiber content) hybrid laminates was detected by a number of nondestructive testing (NDT) techniques, in particular, near (NIR) and short-wave (SWIR) infrared reflectography and transmittography, infrared thermography (IRT), digital speckle photography (DSP), and holographic interferometry (HI), to discover and evaluate real defects in a laminate with a complex structure. A comparative study between thermographic data acquired in the mid- (MWIR) and long-wave infrared (LWIR) spectrum bands, by pulsed (PT) and square pulse (

Abstract:
Phonon polaritons (PPs) in van der Waals (vdW) materials can strongly enhance light-matter interactions at mid-infrared frequencies, owing to their extreme infrared field confinement and long lifetimes. PPs thus bear potential for achieving vibrational strong coupling (VSC) with molecules. Although the onset of VSC has recently been observed spectroscopically with PP nanoresonators, no experiments so far have resolved VSC in real space and with propagating modes in unstructured layers. Here, we demonstrate by real-space nanoimaging that VSC can be achieved between propagating PPs in

Context. HD 50138 is a Herbig B[e] star with a circumstellar disc detected at infrared and millimeter wavelength. Its brightness makes it a good candidate for near-infrared interferometry observations. Aims. We aim to resolve, spatially and spectrally, the continuum and hydrogen emission lines in the 2.12–2.47 micron region, to shed light on the immediate circumstellar environment of the star. Methods. VLTI/AMBER K-band observations provide spectra, visibilities, differential phases, and closure phases along three long baselines for the continuum, and H I emission in Brγ and five high-n Pfund

Abstract The γ-ray detection from an astrophysical object indicates the presence of an extreme environment where high-energy radiation is produced. With the continuous monitoring of the γ-ray sky by the Fermi Large Area Telescope (LAT) leading to deeper sensitivity, high-energy γ-ray emission has now been detected from a diverse class of jetted active galactic nuclei (AGNs). Here, we present the results of a multiwavelength study of the radio source DA 362, which was reported to be a blazar candidate of uncertain type. However, it was recently identified as a bona fide compact symmetric object

Abstract:
Context. Close young binary stars are unique laboratories for the direct measurement of pre-main-sequence (PMS) stellar masses and their comparison to evolutionary theoretical models. At the same time, a precise knowledge of their orbital parameters when still in the PMS phase offers an excellent opportunity for understanding the influence of dynamical effects on the morphology and lifetime of the circumstellar as well as circumbinary material. Aims. The young T Tauri star WW Cha was recently proposed to be a close binary object with strong infrared and submillimeter excess associated with cir

Einstein’s General theory of relativity (GR) successfully describes gravity. Although GR has been accurately tested in weak gravitational fields, it remains largely untested in the general strong field cases. One of the most fundamental predictions of GR is the existence of black holes (BHs). After the recent direct detection of gravitational waves by LIGO, there is now near conclusive evidence for the existence of stellar-mass BHs. In spite of this exciting discovery, there is not yet direct evidence of the existence of BHs using astronomical observations in the electromagnetic spectrum. Are

SOIRDETE has a fixed E-W 15 m baseline and two 1 m diameter telescopes of conventional design. This instrument obtains interference fringes by adjusting an optical-precision delay line in discrete steps to compensate for the geometrical delay of the projected baseline. The interference

Interstellar dust affects many astronomical observations through absorption and reddening, yet this extinction is also a powerful tool for studying interstellar matter in galaxies. Three-dimensional (3D) reconstructions of dust extinction and density in the Milky Way have suffered from artefacts such as the fingers-of-god effect and negative densities, and have been limited by large computational costs. Here, we aim to overcome these issues with a novel algorithm that derives the 3D extinction density of dust in the Milky Way using a latent variable Gaussian process in combination with variati
