Investigating three Sirius-like systems with SPHERE
R. Gratton, V. D'Orazi, T. A. Pacheco +61
Sirius-like systems are wide binaries composed of a white dwarf (WD) and a companion of a spectral type earlier than M0. The WD progenitor evolves in isolation, but its wind during…
A triple star in disarray -- Multi-epoch observations of T Tauri with VLT-SPHERE and LBT-LUCI
M. Kasper, K. K. R. Santhakumari, T. M. Herbst +24
T Tauri remains an enigmatic triple star for which neither the evolutionary state of the stars themselves, nor the geometry of the complex outflow system is completely understood.…

A. Vigan, C. Fontanive, M. Meyer +108
The SHINE project is a 500-star survey performed with SPHERE on the VLT for the purpose of directly detecting new substellar companions and understanding their formation and early…
Imaging the expanding knotty structure in the close environment of the LBV star Carinae
F. Millour, E. Lagadec, M. Montargès +13
~Car is one of the most massive stars in the Galaxy. It underwent a massive eruption in the 19th century, which produced the impressive bipolar Homunculus nebula now surrounding…
Spirals inside the millimeter cavity of transition disk SR 21
