Abstract

In this paper the images of two point sources are considered. The effects of diffraction are discussed, and techniques for reducing the effects of a very bright point source on the image of a much fainter point source are suggested. The implications of these ideas on the prospects of obtaining images of extra solar planets are also discussed.
