You can see it in the GIF below (according to Wikipedia, HR8799e is the dot that starts on the right-hand side): Image by Directly observing the exoplanet led to some surprising discoveries.
They have created a quantum interferometer that can make quick and accurate measurements at the nanometer scale, even in noisy or difficult conditions. This breakthrough could change how we study ...
Not only was the LEGO interferometer able to generate a proper interference pattern, [Kyra] then went one step further. A Raspberry Pi was rigged up with a camera and some code to analyze the ...
Interferometers, devices that can modulate aspects of light, play the important role of modulating and switching light signals in fiber-optic communications networks and are frequently used for gas ...
White light interferometry (WLI) is a contact-free optical method for measuring surface height. It uses the phase difference between the light reflected off a reference mirror and the target sample… ...
Fortunately, in Sept. 2015, the Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory (LIGO) in the U.S. and the Virgo interferometer in Italy indeed detected ripples in spacetime.
