The profound impact of the
Narrabri Stellar
Intensity Interferometer (pictured above) is very much alive today: it is
regarded as the foundational experiment from which the field of Quantum Optics
germinated, while its legacy pervades all coherent-light astronomy. This week's
meeting Quantum Astronomy and Stellar
Imaging 2015 will look to the future and ask the question, what are the
breakthroughs in optical physics which will empower tomorrow's visionary
astronomical instruments?
