GRAVITY chromatic imaging of Eta Car's core
GRAVITY Collaboration, J. Sanchez-Bermudez, G. Weigelt +132
Eta Car is one of the most intriguing luminous blue variables in the Galaxy. Observations and models at different wavelengths suggest a central binary with a 5.54 yr period residin…
MACAO-CRIRES, a step towards high-resolution spectroscopy
J. Paufique, P. Biereichel, R. Donaldson +14
High resolution spectroscopy made an important step ahead 10 years ago, leading for example to the discovery of numerous exoplanets. But the IR did not benefit from this improvemen…
Estimation of the lateral mis-registrations of the GRAVITY + adaptive optics system
Anthony Berdeu, H. Bonnet, J. -B. Le Bouquin +16
Context. The GRAVITY+ upgrade implies a complete renewal of its adaptive optics (AO) systems. Its complex design, featuring moving components between the deformable mirrors and the…
GRAVITY+ Wavefront Sensors: High-Contrast, Laser Guide Star, Adaptive Optics systems for the VLTI
G. Bourdarot, F. Eisenhauer, S. Yazıcı +53
We present the Wavefront Sensor units of the Gravity Plus Adaptive Optics (GPAO) system, which will equip all 8m class telescopes of the VLTI and is an instrumental part of the GRA…
Spatially resolved broad line region in a quasar at z=4: Dynamical black hole mass and prominent outflow
GRAVITY+ Collaboration, K. Abd El Dayem, N. Aimar +92
We present the first near-infrared interferometric data of a QSO at z=4. The K-band observations were performed with GRAVITY+ on the VLTI using all four UTs, detecting a differenti…
High contrast at short separation with VLTI/GRAVITY: Bringing Gaia companions to light
N. Pourré, T. O. Winterhalder, J. -B. Le Bouquin +173
Since 2019, GRAVITY has provided direct observations of giant planets and brown dwarfs at separations of down to 95 mas from the host star. Some of these observations have provided…
