Definition of interferometry in English English dictionary

the design and use of optical or radio interferometers

{i} measurement of wave lengths using an interferometer (instrument which uses interference between rays of light to measure wavelengths)

The science and techniques involved in using interferometers

Technique in widespread use to dramatically improve the resolution of radio and infrared maps Several telescopes observe an object simultaneously, and a computer analyzes how the signals interfere with one another to reconstruct a detailed image of the field of view

(interferometer) A measurement technique that relies on interference between coherent waves that results in regions of enhanced signal (constructive interference) when the waves are in phase and regions of no signal (destructive interference) when the waves are exactly out of phase For light, the effect is usually to produce a series of light and dark bands called fringes A record of the fringe pattern is called an interferogram

A technique used in radio astronomy in which two or more separate antennae are linked together to study the same astronomical source

  The branch of science devoted to the study and measurement of the interaction of waves, such as electromagnetic waves and acoustic waves   Note 1: The interaction of the waves can produce various spatial-, time-, and frequency-domain energy distribution patterns [After 2196]  Note 2: Interferometric techniques are used to measure refractive index profiles, e g , those of the preforms from which optical fibers are drawn, and to sense and measure physical variables, such as displacement (distance), temperature, pressure, and magnetic fields
