Title: AGN Research with Future Interferometric Arrays 
Authors: A. Quirrenbach 
Topic: 5 
Session: oral 
Abstract: Future large optical/infrared interferometers with large 
telescopes and baselines of several km length can provide sub-milliarcsecond
 resolution, high sensitivity, and good sky coverage. They can perform imaging 
spectroscopy of AGN broad line regions, and measure geometric distances to these objects.
I will discuss the science case and technical issues for such a next-generation interferometric array.
