-
A.
Michelson interferometer
chosen
The Michelson interferometer is a precision optical instrument that splits and recombines light beams to measure extremely small differences in path length, widely used in fundamental physics experiments and metrology.
-
B.
Mach–Zehnder interferometer
The Mach–Zehnder interferometer is an optical device that splits and recombines light beams to produce interference patterns, widely used to demonstrate and study fundamental principles of quantum mechanics and wave interference.
-
C.
Sagnac interferometer
A Sagnac interferometer is an optical device that splits and recombines light traveling in opposite directions around a closed loop to measure rotation or phase shifts with high precision.
-
D.
Fizeau experiment
The Fizeau experiment was a pioneering 19th-century physics experiment that measured the speed of light using a rotating toothed wheel and helped establish light’s finite velocity.
-
E.
Narrabri Stellar Intensity Interferometer
The Narrabri Stellar Intensity Interferometer was a pioneering astronomical instrument in Australia that used intensity interferometry to measure the angular diameters of hot stars with unprecedented precision.
- F. None of above.
- G. Unsure - the case is ambiguous/there is not enough information to decide.
Provenance (3 batches)
The batch behind each pipeline step, in order, with when it ran. Timestamps are batch-level — stages were processed in waves, so the object chain (NER → NED1 → NEDg → NED2) reads in order, but predicate / elicitation batches can sit in a different wave.
