Ushering in high angular resolution observatories in the far-infrared: The case for a double-Fourier interferometer

C. S. Benson, M. Bonato, T. A. Davis +14

A far-infrared (far-IR) interferometer from a space-based platform would bring about a transformational improvement in the spatial detail of astronomical observations that are inac…

The SPace-based InterFerometer Feasibility (SPIFF) Project: Enabling Future High-Resolution Astronomy Across the EM Spectrum

Berke Vow Ricketti, Victoria Yankelevich, Chris Benson +19

A plethora of astronomical science cases can only be achieved with high angular resolution observations, and we can expect the number of these to grow as astronomers are constraine…

How accurately can obscured galaxy luminosities be measured using spectral energy distribution fitting of near- through far-infrared observations?

Duncan Farrah, Kiana Ejercito, Andreas Efstathiou +23

Infrared-luminous galaxies are important sites of stellar and black hole mass assembly at most redshifts. Their luminosities are often estimated by fitting spectral energy distribu…
