    Saha, S. K (Macmillan Publishers India Ltd., 2008)
    Optical interferometry with single aperture, as well as with multi-aperture require high quality sensor that enables to obtain snap shots with a very fast time resolution of the order of (i) frame integration of 50 Hz, or ...
  • Speckle Imaging: a boon for astronomical observations 
    Saha, S. K (Centre for Space Physics, 2003)
