Abstract: The Large Binocular Telescope Interferometer uses a near - infrared camera to measure the optical path length variations between the two AO - corrected apertures and provide high -
angular resolution observations for all its science channels (1.5 - 13 $ \ mu $ m).
«The Hubble Space telescope and KECK2 are unique facilities providing complementary high
angular resolution observations to characterise these cold planets orbiting very distant stars,» Beaulieu said.
However, high
angular resolution observations with ALMA opened a new window to understand their formation environment in further details.
Since it is thought that high - mass stars are born in clusters far away from the Earth, it is impossible to understand their formation process in detail without high
angular resolution observations.

Since the
angular resolution provided by ALMA was 36 times higher than that applied to the past CO
observations, the
observation results clearly revealed the details of complex structure and kinematics of gas.
[2] Previous
observations were made with the CHARA array — an optical astronomical interferometer operated by the Center for High
Angular Resolution Astronomy (CHARA) of the Georgia State University, and its fibred beam combiner FLUOR.
Relying on telescopes in Arizona and Hawaii (which would eventually be part of the EHT), they tried to get
observations of Sagittarius A * at higher
angular resolutions than had been possible before, but failed to detect the signals they expected to see in the immediate vicinity of the black hole.
Using the high
angular resolution of the Keck II telescope, combined with a large number of photometric
observations taken since 1957, the team built a refined shape hoping to get a clue to the origin of the system.
Observations of these «middle - aged» galaxies will exploit both the light gathering power and the unique
angular resolution provided by TMT.
The
observations made possible by the band 9 receivers allow astronomers to study molecular clouds — the dense regions of gas and dust where new stars are being born — at higher temperatures and densities, and with higher
angular resolution, thus complementing the longer wavelength bands.
In this paper, we review the performance of these modes in terms of exoplanet science capabilities and describe recent instrumental milestones such as first - light Fizeau images (with the
angular resolution of an equivalent 22.8 - m telescope) and deep interferometric nulling
observations.
«We have performed the deepest and most sensitive
observations of Himiko with an
angular resolution unmatched by earlier work.
Abstract: We report the results of high -
angular -
resolution observations that search for exozodiacal light in a sample of main sequence stars and sub-giants.
