| 内容記述 | The possibilities for infrared heterodyne interferometry are examined. First the characteristics of atmospheric seeing in the infrared are considered, in order to determine the sizes of collecting apertures and baselines which can be used for relatively simple interferometers. The advantages of heterodyne over direct detection are pointed out. For example, when long baselines are used, the narrow bandwidth of heterodyne detection makes matching the path lengths easier. Experimental results on the spatial distribution of warm dust around stars and on astrometric precision obtained with prototype systems are given. Telescope design for a heterodyne interferometer is discussed. |
