Fainter and closer: finding planets by symmetry breaking
Erez N. Ribak, Szymon Gladysz
Imaging of planets is very difficult, due to the glare from their nearby, much brighter suns. Static and slowly-evolving aberrations are the limiting factors, even after applicatio…
A simple beam combination for stellar interferometry
E. N. Ribak, M. Gai, D. Loreggia +1
In stellar interferometry, image quality improves significantly with the inclusion of more telescopes and the use of phase closure. We demonstrate, using first coherent and then pa…
Off-Line, Multi-Detector Intensity Interferometers II: Implications and Applications
Aviv Ofir, Erez N. Ribak
Intensity interferometry removes the stringent requirements on mechanical precision and atmospheric corrections that plague all amplitude interferometry techniques at the cost of s…
Off-Line, Multi-Detector Intensity Interferometers I: Theory
Aviv Ofir, Erez N. Ribak
Stellar amplitude interferometry is limited by the need to have optical distances fixed and known to a fraction of the wavelength. We suggest reviving intensity interferometry, whi…
The WSO, a world-class observatory for the ultraviolet
M. A. Barstow, L. Binette, N. Brosch +17
The World Space Observatory is an unconventional space project proceeding via distributed studies. The present design, verified for feasibilty, consists of a 1.7-meter telescope op…
