Pyxis: A ground-based demonstrator for formation-flying optical interferometry

Jonah T. Hansen, Samuel Wade, Michael J. Ireland +6

In the past few years, there has been a resurgence in studies towards space-based optical/infrared interferometry, particularly with the vision to use the technique to discover and…

Interferometric Beam Combination with a Triangular Tricoupler Photonic Chip

Jonah T. Hansen, Michael J. Ireland, Andrew Ross-Adams +4

Beam combiners are important components of an optical/infrared astrophysical interferometer, with many variants as to how to optimally combine two or more beams of light to fringe-…

First on-sky demonstration of an integrated-photonic nulling-interferometer: The GLINT instrument

Barnaby R. M. Norris, Nick Cvetojevic, Tiphaine Lagadec +10

The characterisation of exoplanets is critical to understanding planet diversity and formation, their atmospheric composition and the potential for life. This endeavour is greatly…

Long-baseline optical intensity interferometry: Laboratory demonstration of diffraction-limited imaging

Dainis Dravins, Tiphaine Lagadec, Paul D. Nuñez

A long-held vision has been to realize diffraction-limited optical aperture synthesis over kilometer baselines. This will enable imaging of stellar surfaces and their environments,…

Optical aperture synthesis with electronically connected telescopes

Dainis Dravins, Tiphaine Lagadec, Paul D. Nuñez

Highest resolution imaging in astronomy is achieved by interferometry, connecting telescopes over increasingly longer distances, and at successively shorter wavelengths. Here, we p…
