Abstract
Fourier spectroscopy can be performed with multi-aperture telescopes by adjusting the optical path difference between apertures. Expressions are given for the measured intensity and the recovered spectrum for a general multi-aperture system. The transfer function of a multi-aperture spectrometer is strikingly different than for a conventional Michelson imaging spectrometer.
