Giant Magellan Telescope: Encyclopedia II - Very Large Telescope - Interferometry and the VLTI

Most interferometry will be done using 1.8 meter Auxiliary Telescopes (ATs), which will be dedicated to full-time interferometric measurements. The first observations using a pair of ATs were conducted in February 2005, and additional ATs are expected to be installed soon. For interferometric observations on the brightest objects, there is little benefit in using 8 meter telescopes rather than 1.8 meter telescopes. In its interferometric operating mode, the light from the telescopes is reflected off mirrors and directed through tunnel ...
