Optical Interferometry from the Antarctic
Abstract The unique atmospheric conditions which pertain in the high Antarctic plateau offer dramatic gains for many areas of Astrophysics. Optical Interferometry is among the most technologically demanding branches of modern instrumentation, and furthermore, is one which is most strongly limited by...

description | Abstract The unique atmospheric conditions which pertain in the high Antarctic plateau offer dramatic gains for many areas of Astrophysics. Optical Interferometry is among the most technologically demanding branches of modern instrumentation, and furthermore, is one which is most strongly limited by the stability of the atmosphere at the observatory site. The long-term potential for spectacular gains by implementing an interferometer on the high Antarctic plateau are presented. |
