Results from Optical Interferometry

  • Conference paper

Part of the book series: Astrophysics and Space Science Library ((ASSL,volume 117))

Abstract

The techniques of optical speckle and Michelson interferometry have both contributed significant information on the diameter, the atmospheres, and the envelopes of red supergiant stars. In this paper, I summarize the observations obtained to date and preview future plans.
