An Asymmetric Sparse Telescope
B. Martin Levine, Michael Kaplun, Erez N. Ribak
We designed and built a novel model of a deployed space telescope which can reliably align its segments to achieve the finest possible resolution. An asymmetric design of both the…
Optical amplification for astronomical imaging at higher resolution
Gal Gumpel, Erez N Ribak
Heisenberg's uncertainty principle tells us that it is impossible to determine simultaneously the position of a photon crossing a telescope's aperture and its momentum. Super-resol…
Phasing a deployable sparse telescope
Erez N. Ribak, B. Martin Levine
After launching and deploying a sparse space telescope, fine tuning is required to correct for inaccurate initial placement of its elements. We selected unique shapes and locations…
Beyond the diffraction limit via optical amplification
Aglae N. Kellerer, Erez N. Ribak
In a previous article we suggested a method to overcome the diffraction limit behind a telescope. We refer to theory and recent numerical simulations, and test whether it is indeed…
Stellar intensity interferometry: Experimental steps toward long-baseline observations
Stephan LeBohec, Ben Adams, Isobel Bond +12
Experiments are in progress to prepare for intensity interferometry with arrays of air Cherenkov telescopes. At the Bonneville Seabase site, near Salt Lake City, a testbed observat…
Towards the Intensity Interferometry Stellar Imaging System
M. Daniel, W. J. de Wit, D. Dravins +4
The imminent availability of large arrays of large light collectors deployed to exploit atmospheric Cherenkov radiation for gamma-ray astronomy at more than 100GeV, motivates the g…
