2 00 8 All you ever wanted to know about optical long baseline stellar interferometry , but were too shy to ask your adviser

چکیده
I try to present a small view of the properties and issues related to astronomical interferometry observations. I recall a bit of history of the technique, give some basic assessments to the principle of interferometry, and finally, describe physical processes and limitations that affect optical long baseline interferometry and which are, in general, very useful for everyday work. Therefore, this text is not intended to perform strong demonstrations and show accurate results, but rather to transmit the general “feeling” one needs to have to not be destabilised by the first contact to real world interferometry.

متن کاملEverything You Ever Wanted to Know about the Jvas Gravitational Lens System B1030+074 but Were Afraid to Ask
We present an overview of all the observations (radio-VLA, MERLIN, VLBA, EVN-and optical-WFPC2 and NICMOS-) that were initially used to confirm the gravitational lens nature of the double JVAS system B1030+074. Since the 1.56 arcsec system showed some first indication of variability it has been monitored with the VLA and MERLIN to confirm its variable nature. We also present new VLBA observatio...
متن کاملCharacter encoding
Have you ever wondered what goes on between the ‘A’ you hit on your keyboard, the ‘A’ stored in your file, and the ‘A’ that comes out of your printer? Why does that letter still come out of the printer if the file is printed by your friend in Egypt who doesn’t use the letter ‘A’? Maybe you know that ‘A’ is character 65 (decimal) in ASCII; if you put it on a web page, and it’s visited by someone...
