1. Interferometry, Adaptive Optics
The needs here are for stars with well known diameters or unresolvable objects for calibration purposes...
Apparent diameters and absolute radii of stars Fracassini et al. (1988)	7255 stellar radii
Interferometer phase calibration sources Wrobel et al. (1998), Patnaik et al. (1992), Browne (1998), Wilkinson (1998)	2118 compact radio sources as candidate phase calibrators for VLBI networks or ALMA
Catalog of UBVRI photometry of globular clusters Peterson (1986)	56 UBVRI records
A catalogue of calibrator stars for long baseline interferometry Borde et al. (2002)	374 late-type stars with angular diameters in the JHK-bands
CHARM: A Catalog of High Angular Resolution Measurements Richichi & Percheron (2002)	2432 measurements of 1625 sources (plus photometric data)
