Colavita, M. M., 1993, "Limitations To Optical/IR Interferometry", https://hdl.handle.net/2014/34904, Sydney, Australia, JPL Open Repository
The primary limitation to ground-based optical/IR interferometry is the turbulent atmosphere, which limits sensitivity by restricting the coherence volume, limits imaging accuracy by corrupting the fringe phase, and limits astrometric acuracy by corrupting the angel of arrival. |
