Measuring the Effective Wavelength of CHARA Classic

Measuring the Effective Wavelength of CHARA Classic

This thesis presents an engineering project measuring the effective wavelength of the CHARA Classic beam combiner on the CHARA Array. Knowing the actual effective wavelength of light observed is very important because that value is necessary for determining astrophysical parameters of stars. Current...
