Talk:CHARA array

So has someone imaged the surface of a non-main sequence star? Or is this statement as confusing as it seems? Maury (talk) 18:29, 7 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

On 1. I answer "yes", on 2. "no". The first image ever of the surface of a star is over Betelgeuse, α Ori, the reknowned supergiant star. That image was produced by a more primitive interferometer. Said: Rursus (☻) 21:39, 15 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

More images and results

~~Figure for Regulus, on p33~~
~~Figure for Vega, on p34~~
Radius measurements on diverse M dwarfs A on p35-37
Radius measurements on Delta Cephei A on p38
Exact orbit determination on the Eta Orionis A component of Eta Orionis on p39-40
Disk around Be star Zeta Tauri on p42
Disk around Be star Gamma Cassiopeiae on p42
Exoplanet size measurements on HD 189733b on p44

To be used if possible. (The PDF eats my RAM) Said: Rursus (☻) 21:39, 15 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

There's one trouble though. As much as I can find out, their copyright is the one of Georgia State University, which is of the kind: most rights reserved, but you may download one file copy to your own computer. Preferrably it would be better if CHARA array release some images to either Creative Commons Attribution 3.0 Unported (better) or Public Domain. Said: Rursus (☻) 08:59, 16 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
