Description | The Sydney University Stellar Interferometer (SUSI) was the successor of the NSII. It was built in Culgoora near Narrabri.
An earlier proposal envisaged a larger and more sensitive intensity interferometer, the VLSII (Very Large Stellar Intensity Interferometer). This plan was abandoned in favour of a Michelson interferometer, which, as Hanbury Brown was keen to emphasize, became J Davis's project. The SUSI opened in 1991. |
