Computer simulation of a method for object reconstruction from stellar speckle interferometry data.
A method for reconstructing a diffraction-limited image from data consisting of many short-exposure turbulence degraded images is described. The results of a computer simulation of the method are presented. The method should prove useful for obtaining high-angular resolution images from large earth bound telescopes. The simulation indicates that the method may be applicable to astronomical objects as faint as approximately 11th magnitude.
