Palomar Testbed Interferometer Status Report
INTERFEROMETRY FOR OPTICAL ASTRONOMY II, PTS 1 AND 2(2003)
Abstract
We discuss recent work from the Palomar Testbed Interferometer (PTI), including science results and system improvements. In the past two years PTI has been used to observe a wide range of scientifically interesting sources, including binaries, Cepheids and Miras. In addition PTI has been used to observe departures from spherical symmetry in several stars.Recent system improvements include a new low read-noise camera based on a HAWAII infrared array, routine operation in two baselines, and operation in the J band. Future developments include an upgrade to three-aperture combination and closure phase measurements, and double-Fourier interferometry.
