The nearby AGB star L2 Puppis: the birth of a planetary nebula ?

P. Kervella, M. Montargès, E. Lagadec

Adaptive optics observations in the infrared (VLT/NACO, Kervella et al. 2014) and visible (VLT/SPHERE, Kervella et al. 2015) domains revealed that the nearby AGB star L2 Pup (d=64…

The convection of close red supergiant stars observed with near-infrared interferometry

Miguel Montargès, Pierre Kervella, Guy Perrin +2

Our team has obtained observations of the photosphere of the two closest red supergiant stars Betelgeuse ( Ori) and Antares ( Sco) using near infrared interferometry. We have…

Investigating Cepheid Carinae's Cycle-to-cycle Variations via Contemporaneous Velocimetry and Interferometry

R. I. Anderson, A. Mérand, P. Kervella +8

Baade-Wesselink-type (BW) techniques enable geometric distance measurements of Cepheid variable stars in the Galaxy and the Magellanic clouds. The leading uncertainties involved co…
