Infrared Speckle Imaging at Palomar

چکیده
We present diffraction-limited infrared images of three binary stars reconstructed using speckle imaging techniques. Three methods of recovering the objects' Fourier amplitudes are compared, Fourier deconvolution, projection onto convex sets, and CLEAN. The objects' Fourier phases are retrieved via bispectral analysis. We find that the quality of the final reconstructed images is a function of the percentage of the total bispectral volume utilized in the reconstruction procedure.

The nearby Seyfert 2 Galaxy NGC 1068 was observed with speckle imaging techniques in the near-infrared H−band (1.6 µm) at the Hale 200-inch Telescope at Palomar Observatory and K−band (2.2 µm) at the 10 m Keck I Telescope at the W. M. Keck Observatory. Images with diffraction limited or near-diffraction limited resolutions of 0. ′′ 05 − 0. ′′ 1 were obtained and used to search for structure in ...
متن کاملSimultaneous measurement of water flow velocity with fluorescent and speckle imaging technique
The average velocity of water flow has been simultaneously measured with fluorescent and speckle imaging methods. The measured velocities with two methods are in good agreement with each other and it confirms that the speckle imaging method can be used as a confident method to measure the velocity of water flow in a dry leaf. Also the velocity of water flow through thick and thin xylems of a le...
متن کاملOptical/Near-Infrared Imaging of Infrared-Excess Palomar-Green QSOs
Ground-based high spatial-resolution (FWHM < 0.3–0.8) optical and nearinfrared imaging (0.4—2.2 μm) is presented for a complete sample of optically selected Palomar-Green QSOs with far-infrared excesses at least as great as those of “warm” AGN-like ultraluminous infrared galaxies (Lir/Lbig−blue−bump > 0.46). In all cases, the host galaxies of the QSOs were detected and most have discernable two...
متن کاملInfrared nonredundant mask imaging at Palomar
We have recently begun a program of high resolution infrared imaging at Palomar Observatory. As a part of this effort, we have investigated the use of nonredundant masks both as an imaging technique and as a method of analyzing various aspects of our imaging system. In particular, we have applied the technique to a bright star and binary system using a three-hole mask. We find the method is use...
متن کاملTemperature Mapping Using Ultrasound Digital Images
Introduction: The success of hyperthermia depends on the accuracy of the temperature monitoring in the tumor and the surrounding normal tissue. In this study, the temperature changes were determined by computing the speckle displacement in the ultrasound digital images. Speckle tracking algorithm was used to compute the displacement. Materials and Methods: The experiment was perf...
