Abstract: |
I will review infrared interferometric observations of young stars and
their circumstellar material. Even simple, single-baseline, interferometric
measurements caused substantial revision of standard ideas about
protoplanetary disks. We have moved beyond this early era and are
now able to use multiple baselines, high spectral dispersion, and even
basic image reconstruction to probe young stellar objects. I will
discuss the physical insights enabled by these instrumental
improvements and indicate areas where I think future interferometers
will advance our understanding of star and planet formation. |
