Abstract

AbstractAstrotomography refers to a suite of indirect imaging techniques that achieve micro-arcsecond angular resolution by measuring projections obtained from time-resolved spectroscopic observations. The projections arise from Doppler shifts, eclipses or time delays, combined with rotation of the star or binary system being imaged. At our workshop we reviewed and discussed state-of-the-art methods for imaging the surfaces and magnetic fields of rapidly rotating stars, the accretion flows in compact binary star systems and the broad emission-line regions in active galactic nuclei.
