Latest technical developments at the infrared spatial interferometer
Manfred Bester,C. G. Degiacomi,William C. Danchi,Lincoln J. Greenhill,Charles H. Townes,A. Reisinger,J. Weaver +6 more
TL;DR: In this article, the Infrared Spatial Interferometer (ISI) has been upgraded with an improved sensitivity, precision and convenience of measurement, and phase fluctuations within the interferometer as well as in the atmosphere above indicate that simple atmospheric models need to be refined.

The many faces of Betelgeuse
TL;DR: In this article, three-telescope interferometric data obtained at 11.15 microns wavelength with the Berkeley Infrared Spatial Interferometer (ISI) was used to probe the stellar surface continuum.

A 158μm [CII] Map of NGC 6946: Detection in Extragalactic Atomic and Ionized Gas
S. C. Madden,Norbert Geis,R. Genzel,F. Herrmann,Albrecht Poglitsch,James M. Jackson,Gordon J. Stacey,Charles H. Townes +7 more
TL;DR: In this article, Madden et al. showed that the far-infrared line emission contributes up to 1% of the total luminosity and most likely originates from dense photon-dominated regions associated with the surfaces of molecular clouds exposed to FUV from external or embedded OB stars.

Long Baseline Interferometric Observations of Circumstellar Dust Shells at 11 Microns
William C. Danchi,Lincoln J. Greenhill,Manfred Bester,C. G. Degiacomi,Charles H. Townes,M. G. Wolfire +5 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the spatial distribution of dust around a sample of well-known late-type stars has been studied with the Infrared Spatial Interferometer (ISI) located at Mt. Wilson.
