  Recent site testing (see:
http://www-luan.unice.fr/Concordiastro/indexantartic.html) has shown that Dome
C in Antarctica might have a high potential for stellar interferometry if some
solutions related to the surface atmospheric layer are found. A demonstrator
interferometer could be envisioned in order to fully qualify the site and
prepare the future development of a large array.
  We analyse the performances of a prototype interferometer for Dome C made
with 3 telescopes of 40 cm diameter. It assumes classical Michelson
recombination. The most recent atmospheric and environmental conditions
measured at Dome C are considered (see K. Agabi "First whole atmosphere
night-time seeing measurements at Dome C, Antarctica"). We also study the
possible science reachable with such a demonstrator. Especially we evaluate
that even such small aperture interferometer could allow the detection and low
resolution spectroscopy of the most favourable pegaside planets.
