Scientific paper

We applied an algorithm for the coherent integration of visibility data of the Navy Prototype Optical Interferometer in the reduction of observations of Altair. This algorithm was first presented at the SPIE meeting in Kona in 2002 and is based on the principle of phase bootstrapping a long baseline using the fringe delays and phases measured on the two shorter baselines with which it forms a triangle in a three-station array. We show that the SNR of the visibility amplitudes and closure phases is significantly increased compared to the standard incoherent integration, also enabling us to use all 28 wavelength channels (instead of 20) afforded by the NPOI spectrometers. The recovery of the data at the blue end is important for constraining any models of this star.
