Masking<br />
A key observable when analysing aperture-masking data is<br />
closure-phase. The phase of each splodge in the OTF<br />
changes with seeing <strong>and</strong> slow mirror shape changes, but<br />
the closure-phase doesn’t. i.e. the image closure-phase is<br />
the object closure-phase.<br />
Summary<br />
The equivalent in speckle interferometry is the bispectrum. Cool but tricky.
