High contrast at short separation with VLTI/GRAVITY: Bringing Gaia companions to light
N. Pourré, T. O. Winterhalder, J. -B. Le Bouquin +173
Since 2019, GRAVITY has provided direct observations of giant planets and brown dwarfs at separations of down to 95 mas from the host star. Some of these observations have provided…
NAOMI: the adaptive optics system of the Auxiliary Telescopes of the VLTI
Woillez J., Abad J. A., Abuter R. +80
The tip-tilt stabilisation system of the 1.8 m Auxiliary Telescopes of the Very Large Telescope Interferometer was never dimensioned for robust fringe tracking, except when atmosph…
VLTI status update: a decade of operations and beyond
Antoine Merand, Roberto Abuter, Emmanuel Aller-Carpentier +44
We present the latest update of the European Southern Observatory's Very Large Telescope interferometer (VLTI). The operations of VLTI have greatly improved in the past years: redu…
Improving the astrometric performance of VLTI-PRIMA
J. Woillez, R. Abuter, L. Andolfato +18
In the summer of 2011, the first on-sky astrometric commissioning of PRIMA-Astrometry delivered a performance of 3 m'' for a 10 '' separation on bright objects, orders of magnitude…
The ESPRI project: astrometric exoplanet search with PRIMA I. Instrument description and performance of first light observations
J. Sahlmann, T. Henning, D. Queloz +42
The ESPRI project relies on the astrometric capabilities offered by the PRIMA facility of the Very Large Telescope Interferometer for the discovery and study of planetary systems.…
