Kevin then used another technique to better constrain the plane of the disk itself: as you can't quite trust scattered light images to determine where the structures (mass) is hidden, he used longer wavelength observations from the ALMA radio interferometer array to figure out how inclined is the disk.
The two teams, led by David Koerner (of the Planetary Origins Research Group at the University of Pennsylvania) using the Owens Valley Radio Observatory and David Wilner (of the Harvard - Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics) using the Plateau de Bure Interferometer of the Institut de RadioAstronomie Millimetrique (IRAM) in the French Alps, collected millimeter - wavelength observations that were sensitive to structures as small as 20 AUs.
Ongoing radio observations (SMA, JCMT, VLA) of Sirius A are being used to set an observationally determined standard for stellar atmosphere modeling and debris disk studies around A stars, as well as to take the first step toward characterizing potential intrinsic uncertainty in stellar emission at these wavelengths.
The nuclear region of M87 is known as an «active galactic nucleus» due to its brightness in visible, x-ray, radio, and other wavelengths of light.
Operating at a wavelength of 2 centimetres, it was used to study galactic and extragalactic objects that emit radio waves, such as quasars.
