Resolving the innermost parsec of Centaurus A at mid-infrared wavelengths
K. Meisenheimer, K. R. W. Tristram, W. Jaffe +11
We report the results of interferometric observations of Centaurus A with the MID-infrared Interferometer (MIDI) at ESO's VLTI telescope array. The interferometric measurements are…
The compact circumstellar material around OH 231.8+4.2
M. Matsuura, O. Chesneau, A. A. Zijlstra +7
We have observed the bipolar post-AGB candidate OH 231.8+4.2, using the mid-infrared interferometer MIDI and the infrared camera with the adaptive optics system NACO on the Very La…
Observing the Seyfert 2 nucleus of NGC 1068 with the VLT Interferometer
Huub Rottgering, Walter Jaffe, Klaus Meisenheimer +4
Dusty tori have been suggested to play a crucial role in determining the physical characteristics of active galactic nuclei (AGN), but investigation of their properties has stalled…
HII and H2 in the envelopes of cooling flow central galaxies
W. Jaffe, M. N. Bremer, K. Baker
We report observations of ionized and warm molecular gas in the extended regions of the central galaxies in several cooling flow clusters. These show that both gas phases are prese…
The Mid-IR spatially resolved environment of OH26.5+0.6 at maximum luminosity
O. Chesneau, T. Verhoelst, B. Lopez +6
We present observations of the famous OH/IR star OH26.5+0.6 obtained using the Mid-Infrared Interferometric Instrument MIDI at the European Southern Observatory (ESO) Very Large Te…
The sub-arcsecond dusty environment of Eta Carinae
O. Chesneau, M. Min, T. Herbst +15
The core of the nebula surrounding Eta Carinae has been observed with the VLT Adaptive Optics system NACO and with the interferometer VLTI/MIDI to constrain spatially and spectrall…
