A Catalog of Calibrator Stars for Next-Generation Optical Interferometers

Samuel J. Swihart, E. Victor Garcia, Keivan G. Stassun +3

Benchmark stars with known angular diameters are key to calibrating interferometric observations. With the advent of optical interferometry, there is a need for suitably bright, we…

Photon orbital angular momentum and torque metrics for single telescopes and interferometers

N. M. Elias

Context. Photon orbital angular momentum (POAM) is normally invoked in a quantum mechanical context. It can, however, also be adapted to the classical regime, which includes observ…
