Description
Astronomical HBT interferometry is simultaneously just like femtoscopy and yet as different as can be. Perhaps one can think of astronomical HBT interferometry (or intensity interferometry) as probing (transverse) momentum on scales of nano eV/c by measuring particle correlations on scales of hundreds of metres.
This talk will try to make the connection, present some new results on massive stars, and give a feeling for the exciting developments expected in the coming years.
