TitleSeeing and unseen: Mount Wilson's role in high angular resolution astronomy
Author(s)Harold A McAlister
PublicationBristol, Institute of Physics Publishing, 2020.
Abstract NoteThis book provides a detailed history of stellar interferometry as practised at Mount Wilson Observatory. It covers the origin of the field in the early 19th Century, and its subsequent development throughout the last hundred years at the Observatory, including the people, instruments, and methods involved in advancing high angular resolution astronomy. Additionally, two extensive Appendices cover the importance of Mount Wilson today as well as an interferometry primer. It is an excellent book for historians, astronomers and anyone interested in Mount Wilson.

TitlePrinciples of multimessenger astronomy
Author(s)Miroslav D Filipovic;Nicholas F H Tothill
PublicationBristol, Institute of Physics Publishing, 2021.
Abstract NoteAstronomy has traditionally relied on capturing photons from cosmic sources to be able to understand the universe. During the 20th and 21st centuries, different messengers have been added to the astronomer's toolset: cosmic rays, neutrinos, and most recently gravitational waves. Each of these messengers opens a new window on the universe, and a modern astronomer must be familiar with them. The goal of this book is to provide a broad understanding of these messengers and their relationship to each other. The unique physics of each messenger is introduced, as well as the physics of their detection and interpretation. An additional focus is the discussion of techniques and topics that are common to more than one messenger. Principles of Multimessenger Astronomy is designed to be both an introduction and reference to modern astronomy.

TitleIntroduction to optical stellar interferometry
Author(s)A. Labeyrie;S.G. Lipson;P. Nisenson
PublicationCambridge, Cambridge University Press, 2006.
Descriptionxxxiii, 325p.
Abstract NoteDuring the last two decades, optical stellar interferometry has become an important tool in astronomical investigations requiring spatial resolution well beyond that of traditional telescopes. This is the first book to be written on the subject. The authors provide an extended introduction discussing basic physical and atmospheric optics, which establishes the framework necessary to present the ideas and practice of interferometry as applied to the astronomical scene. They follow with an overview of historical, operational and planned interferometric observatories, and a selection of important astrophysical discoveries made with them. Finally, they present some as-yet untested ideas for instruments both on the ground and in space which may allow us to image details of planetary systems beyond our own.
