Matthew Anderson studies stars and galaxies using very high-resolution imaging techniques, particularly with the CHARA Array, an optical interferometer that combines light from multiple telescopes to resolve fine detail on distant objects. Recent work includes imaging the surfaces of giant and hypergiant stars (such as RW Cephei and ρ Cassiopeiae) and probing the dusty regions around active galactic nuclei, as well as developing instrumentation and imaging methods for these observations.
