電波干渉計
Combines antennas to synthesize a much larger aperture.
概要
Radio interferometers combine signals from separated antennas to synthesize the resolution of a single telescope spanning their separation. Aperture-synthesis imaging opened the radio sky to detailed study of relativistic jets, cold gas and the early universe.
