摘要
评述过去10多年里国际上长基线光干涉测量的发展状况。介绍目前已经工作或即将工作的光干涉仪的主要特点,以及几项空间光学干涉仪计划或建议,地面光干涉测量的迅速发展表明,它正在成长为光学天文学的一个重要分支。将来望远镜的发展趋势是大集光能力和高分辨率相结合的一种模式,下一代的空间望远镜不应再是单口径的工作方式,而应该是干涉测量的模式,所有这些情况都说明,光学干涉测量将成为光学天文学研究的—个主要手段。
In this paper, the progress and the status of development of long bascline intcrfcromctry in the world is reviewed, and the characteristics of the optical interferometers, which are operating or planed, both on ground and in space, arc introduced. Rapid development of optical interferometry indicates that it is growing into an important branch in optical astronomy, and that telescope development has shown a tendency towards the combination of large collecting aperture with high resolution. In the near future, optical interferometry will be an important tool in astronomy.
