Description
The simulated annealing algorithm for phase retrieval has been applied
in image reconstruction from low-light level stellar speckle
interferometry (SSI) data. A realistic computer simulation of
photon-limited SSI has been performed, successfully obtaining a
reconstructed image. The algorithm has been shown to be robust and able
to give good reconstructions of complex astronomical objects with high
dynamic range, even in the presence of large amounts of photon noise.
Its performance seems so far limited by its considerable computing time
requirements.
