The HOSTS Survey for Exozodiacal Dust: Preliminary results and future prospects
S. Ertel, G. M. Kennedy, D. Defrère +40
[abridged] The presence of large amounts of dust in the habitable zones of nearby stars is a significant obstacle for future exo-Earth imaging missions. We executed an N band nulli…
Nulling Data Reduction and On-Sky Performance of the Large Binocular Telescope Interferometer
D. Defrère, P. M. Hinz, B. Mennesson +36
The Large Binocular Telescope Interferometer (LBTI) is a versatile instrument designed for high-angular resolution and high-contrast infrared imaging (1.5-13 microns). In this pape…
First-light LBT nulling interferometric observations: warm exozodiacal dust resolved within a few AU of eta Corvi
D. Defrère, P. M. Hinz, A. J. Skemer +37
We report on the first nulling interferometric observations with the Large Binocular Telescope Interferometer (LBTI), resolving the N' band (9.81 - 12.41 um) emission around the ne…
L'-band AGPM vector vortex coronagraph's first light on LBTI/LMIRCam
D. Defrère, O. Absil, P. Hinz +20
We present the first observations obtained with the L'-band AGPM vortex coronagraph recently installed on LBTI/LMIRCam. The AGPM (Annular Groove Phase Mask) is a vector vortex coro…
