Description
In this talk, I will give an introduction to intensity correlations for astrophysical imaging, as pionneered by Hanbury Brown and Twiss. This triggered a wider effort for the field of quantum optics, which I will put into a larger context beyond astrophysical imaging.
I will give an overview of the past results on intensity correlations for astrophysical imaging and mention the ongoing effort by our group towards resolving a white dwarf.
On the quantum optics aspects I will discuss possible applications of intensity correlations in astrophysics, beyond ultrahigh angular resolution.
