The Center for High Angular Resolution Astronomy (CHARA) Array is a six-element interferometer at Mount Wilson Observatory with baselines ranging from 34 to 331m. The Array hosts a number of new or upgraded, six-telescope beam combiners that span the spectrum from the visible R-band to the near-infrared K-band with a r...

Dual-field interferometry uses a bright reference star for real-time fringe tracking, allowing a second beam combiner to record long coherent integrations on a fainter off-axis science target. At the Center for High Angular Resolution Astronomy (CHARA) Array, we implement this mode using the six-telescope MIRC-X and MY...

Estimations of stellar angular diameters can be determined based on the surface brightness-colour relation (SBCR) and photometry. In the context of the PLATO space mission, the SBCR is considered to be an independent empirical alternative for estimating the stellar radii of FGK stars.
We implemented a homogeneous appro...
