[en] The possibility to obtain fringes of equal inclination and fringes of equal thickness by holographic interferometry is presented. Theoretical relations are deduced. A new technique is also presented to obtain fringes of equal thickness by translating a ground glass along the object beam. (author)

[en] In this work, we have developed a different algorithm than the classical one on phase-shifting interferometry. These algorithms typically use constant or homogeneous phase displacements and they can be quite accurate and insensitive to detuning, taking appropriate weight factors in the formula to recover the wrapped phase. However, these algorithms have not been considered with variable or inhomogeneous displacements. We have generalized these formulas and obtained some expressions for an implementation with variable displacements and ways to get partially insensitive algorithms with respect to these arbitrary error shifts.

[en] A method is proposed for recording a series of double-exposure holograms in one recording medium by rotating the medium between the recording cycles and reconstructing the interference patterns characterising a change in the object state in time. The conditions for obtaining interference patterns in fringes of infinite and finite widths are considered. The results of experiments on recording a series of nine double-exposure holograms in an FG-690 holographic film are presented. (holography)

[en] The phase correction determination by stacking method experimentation is carried out by comparing the interferometric length of a set of gauge blocks wrung to each other, with the individual interferometric lengths of each gauge block. In this work the repeatability of the phase correction in steel and the uncertainties associated with this correction by using the stacking method are analyzed. Some variables considered in the analysis are the number of gauge blocks that form the stack, the nominal length of the set and the difference of the interferometric lengths obtained for both sides of each gauge block.

[en] The superluminal behavior of 3C 120, 3C 273, and 3C 345 has been reexamined in light of new hybrid maps of these objects. The maps of 3C 273 and 3C 345 are consistent with superluminal expansion. 3C 120 appeared to expand superluminally from 1972.6 to 1974.5, but the evidence has been inconclusive since 1974.5. It is suggested that the jetlike structure of these sources can be explained by a model in which all the components are approaching at a small angle to the line of sight. There is a range of ejection velocities for which components separate superluminally but still maintain comparable intensities
