NACO Polarimetric Differential Imaging of TW Hya: A Sharp Look at the Closest T Tauri Disk
D. Apai, I. Pascucci, W. Brandner +5
We present high-contrast imaging data on the disk of the classical T Tauri star TW Hya. The images were obtained through the polarimetric differential imaging technique with the ad…
Epsilon Indi Ba/Bb: the nearest binary brown dwarf
M. J. McCaughrean, L. M. Close, R. -D. Scholz +5
We have carried out high angular resolution near-infrared imaging and low-resolution (R~1000) spectroscopy of the nearest known brown dwarf, Eps Indi B, using the ESO VLT NAOS/CONI…
Direct measurement of the size and shape of the present-day stellar wind of Eta Carinae
R. van Boekel, P. Kervella, M. Schoeller +7
We present new high angular resolution observations at near-IR wavelengths of the core of the Luminous Blue Variable Eta Carinae, using NAOS-CONICA at the VLT and VINCI at the VLT…
First NACO observations of the Brown Dwarf LHS 2397aB
E. Masciadri, W. Brandner, H. Bouy +3
Observations of the standard late type M8 star LHS 2397aA were obtained at the ESO-VLT 8m telescope ``Yepun'' using the NAOS/CONICA Adaptive Optics facility. The observations were…
The Stellar Cusp Around the Supermassive Black Hole in the Galactic Center
R. Genzel, R. Schoedel, T. Ott +12
We analyze deep near-IR adaptive optics imaging as well as new proper motion data of the nuclear star cluster of the Milky Way. The surface density distribution of faint stars peak…
VLT/NACO adaptive optics imaging of the TY CrA system - A fourth stellar component candidate detected
G. Chauvin, A-M. Lagrange, H. Beust +11
We report the detection of a possible subsolar mass companion to the triple young system TY CrA using the NACO instrument at the VLT UT4 during its commissioning. Assuming for TY C…
Inward Bound: Studying the Galactic Centre with NAOS/CONICA
T. Ott, R. Schoedel, R. Genzel +25
We report on the first results obtained using adaptive optics measurements of the Galactic Centre done with NAOS/CONICA.
