在大型光学望远镜阵列上实现恒星强度干涉测量(SII)系统将是对当前一代光学振幅干涉仪的高度有价值的补充。SII技术允许在具有潜在密集(U, V)平面覆盖的短光学波长(U/B/V波段)进行观测。我们描述了一个完整的SII系统,用于测量实验室源的空间相干性,该系统显示出与实际恒星源相当的信噪比。提出了一种基于正交偏振态间相关测量的分析方法,以消除杂散相关的不良影响。我们的系统目前正在StarBase天文台(Grantsville, Utah)的夜空观测中进行测试,并将很快移植到VERITAS (Amado, AZ)望远镜上。该系统可以很容易地以最小的成本与现有的光学望远镜集成。这里的工作作为在未来切伦科夫望远镜阵列上实施SII的技术探路者。
A modern implementation of a stellar intensity interferometry (SII) system on an array of large optical telescopes would be a highly valuable complement to the current generation of optical amplitude interferometers. The SII technique allows for observations at short optical wavelengths (U/B/V bands) with potentially dense (u,v) plane coverage. We describe a complete SII system that is used to measure the spatial coherence of a laboratory source which exhibits signal to noise ratios comparable to actual stellar sources. A novel analysis method, based on the correlation measurements between orthogonal polarization states, was developed to remove unwanted effects of spurious correlations. Our system is currently being tested in night sky observations at the StarBase Observatory (Grantsville, Utah) and will soon be ported to the VERITAS (Amado, AZ) telescopes. The system can readily be integrated with current optical telescopes at minimal cost. The work here serves as a technological pathfinder for implementing SII on the future Cherenkov Telescope Array.
