Astrophysical measurements with the VERITAS Stellar Intensity Interferometer
N. Matthews, S. LeBohec
Imaging Atmospheric Cherenkov Telescopes have long been viewed as potential light collectors to be used for long baseline optical intensity interferometry observations. Intensity i…
Science opportunities enabled by the era of Visible Band Stellar Imaging with sub-100 μarc-sec angular resolution
D. Kieda, Monica Acosta, Anastasia Barbano +8
This white paper briefly summarizes stellar science opportunities enabled by ultra-high resolution (sub-100 μ arc-sec) astronomical imaging in the visible (U/V) wavebands. Next gen…
A Fiber Optic Based High Voltage System for Stellar Intensity Interferometry Observations
Rylee Cardon, Nolan Matthews, A. Udara Abeysekara +1
Beginning in Fall 2018, the VERITAS high energy gamma-ray observatory (Amado, AZ) was upgraded to enable Stellar Intensity Interferometry (SII) observations during bright moon cond…
Astro2020 White Paper State of the Profession: Intensity Interferometry
David B. Kieda, Gisela Anton, Anastasia Barbano +14
Recent advances in telescope design, photodetector efficiency, and high-speed electronic data recording and synchronization have created the observational capability to achieve unp…
Direct measurement of stellar angular diameters by the VERITAS Cherenkov Telescopes
W. Benbow, R. Bird, A. Brill +54
The angular size of a star is a critical factor in determining its basic properties. Direct measurement of stellar angular diameters is difficult: at interstellar distances stars a…
