Review of speckle observations of supernova 1987A.
Abstract
Results from speckle interferometry of SN 1987A are reviewed. The technique of speckle interferometry is discussed, including the processes of photon time-tagging and frame read-out. The speckle-determined angular diameters at H-alpha and other wavelengths of SN 1987A are summarized. In addition, consideration is given to speckle observations of the companion object.
