Description
The La Palma Quantum Interferometer (LPQI, https://lapalmaqi.es/) aims to achieve microarcsecond resolution in optical astronomy by correlating photons detected at separate telescopes. Its Pathfinder will link the Nordic Optical Telescope and the Telescopio Nazionale Galileo across a 550 m baseline at La Palma. A planned expansion involving additional optical telescopes would extend the baselines to up to 1.5 km. I will outline an overview on the project as well as its AI and GPU-based computational needs.
