ESO User Support and Observation Preparation for VLTI Science Operations
M. Wittkowski, G. Beccari, A. Corporaal +16
The paper describes recent user‑focused upgrades to the VLTI, including new guiding and instrument modes, enhanced observation‑planning tools, and the availability of reduced GRAVI…
The supernova Ia progenitor problem in the 2040s
Thomas Kupfer, Simone Scaringi, Ingrid Pelisoli +8
Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) are fundamental to cosmology and galactic chemical evolution, yet the nature of their progenitor systems remains unresolved. Multiple evolutionary pathw…
The final stages of binary evolution using multi-messenger studies
Thomas Kupfer, Simone Scaringi, Paul Groot +11
Ultracompact Galactic binaries with orbital periods below an hour are among the strongest persistent gravitational-wave (GW) sources in the mHz band and will constitute the dominan…
Nova Explosions in 2040
Alessandro Ederoclite, Domitilla De Martino, Paul Groot +7
Novae are thermonuclear explosions on the surface of accreting white dwarfs and are key laboratories for studying explosive nucleosynthesis, particle acceleration, shock physics, a…
Spectroscopic Alerts for the Time-Domain Era
Alejandra Melo, Paula Sanchez-Saez, Valentin D. Ivanov +13
Time-domain astronomy is entering an era of unprecedented discovery driven by wide-field, high-cadence surveys such as LSST, Roman, Euclid, SKA, and PLATO. While some of these faci…
White Dwarf Binaries: Probes of Future Astrophysics
Anna F. Pala, Roberto Raddi, Alberto Rebassa-Mansergas +25
White dwarf binaries are fundamental astrophysical probes. They represent ideal laboratories to test the models of binary evolution, which also apply to the sources of gravitationa…
