Abstract: |
The CHARA Array is a six 1-m telescope optical and near infrared
interferometer located at the Mount Wilson Observatory in southern
California and operated by the Center for High Angular Resolution Astronomy
of Georgia State University.
The CHARA Array has been in regular scientific
operation since 2005 and now has over 55 publications in the refereed
literature, including two in Science and one in Nature. The Array now
supports seven beam combiners ranging from 0.5 microns up to 2.3 microns
and combing from 2 to 4 beams at a time. An upgrade to a full 6-beam combiner
is now underway, and fringes with all six telescopes were achieved soon
after the meeting.
We present some of the more recent results from the CHARA Array. |
