Original abstract
The IC4Stars (Intensity Correlation for Stars) project aims to measure the diameter of the white dwarf star Sirius B, using Intensity Interferometry. In this work we present our latest efforts and the milestones achieved in the last year. We report laboratory characterization of the single-photon detectors, TDC and synchronization electronics. We describe an observation campaign where we demonstrated on-sky time resolution below~35~ps~RMS, synchronizing two TDCs using the White Rabbit protocol and a~30~m telecom fiber. We developed the data acquisition of the raw time tags, and an algorithm to compute the second-order correlation function.
