Journal ArticleDOI

The Palomar Testbed Interferometer

TL;DR: The Palomar Testbed Interferometer (PTI) as discussed by the authors is a long-baseline infrared interferometer with three fixed 40 cm apertures that can be combined pairwise to provide baselines to 110 m. PTI implements a dual-star architecture, tracking two stars simultaneously.
Journal ArticleDOI

PALM-3000: EXOPLANET ADAPTIVE OPTICS FOR THE 5 m HALE TELESCOPE

TL;DR: PALM-3000 as discussed by the authors is the second-generation adaptive optics (AO) facility for the 5.1 m Hale telescope at Palomar Observatory, which is designed for high-contrast imaging and emission spectroscopy of brown dwarfs and large planetary mass bodies at near-infrared wavelengths around bright stars.

PALM-3000: Exoplanet Adaptive Optics for the 5-meter Hale Telescope

TL;DR: PALM-3000 as discussed by the authors is the second-generation adaptive optics facility for the 5.1m Hale telescope at Palomar Observatory, which is designed for high-contrast imaging and emission spectroscopy of brown dwarfs and large planetary mass bodies at near-infrared wavelengths around bright stars.
Proceedings ArticleDOI

Palomar Testbed Interferometer

TL;DR: The Palomar Testbed Interferometer (PTI) as mentioned in this paper is a dual-star interferometer that employs active fringe tracking in the infrared (2.0-2.4 μm) to monitor fringe phase.
