Abstract: |
We present simulated observations of surface features on red
supergiant stars and clumpy dust structures surrounding active
galactic nuclei with the Magdalena Ridge Observatory Interferometer
(MROI). These represent two of the classes of astrophysical targets
enumerated in the MROI Key Science Mission that are typical of the
types of complex astrophysical phenomena that the MROI has been
designed to image. Image reconstructions, obtained using the BSMEM
imaging package, are presented for 4-, 6-, and 8-telescope
implementations of the array. |
