Present optical/IR interferometers like CHARA are not only capable of probing the environment surrounding stars, but also resolving surface details on the stars themselves. Because of this, interferometers can produce results on the classical topics of photometry: namely pulsation, eclipses, and star spots. In this talk I discuss these three common areas, and how interferometry and photometry can be used in conjunction to yield superior results.
This research involves Georgia State University's Center for High Angular Resolution Astronomy (CHARA) in collaboration with the University of Michigan. It is supported in part by AAVSO, the National Science Foundation grant 10-16678 and the bequest of William Hershel Womble in support of astronomy at the University of Denver.
