Abstract
Intensity interferometry does not essentially destroy information concerning the brightness temperature distribution. It merely confuses the actual distribution with a number (which can be small) of other possible distributions. All distributions can be recovered by a computational procedure which is described in detail and is illustrated with examples. The computational procedure can be used (1) to determine whether a measured intensity interferogram is uniquely related to the brightness temperature distribution and (2) to improve the computational procedure for reconstructing brightness temperature distributions from compound intensity interferometric measurements.Keywords
