CHARA/SPICA: The six-telescope visible combiner and near-infrared fringe tracker for the CHARA Array
D. Mourard, P. Bério, C. Bailet +43
The suite called Stellar Parameters and Images with a Cophased Array (SPICA) has two interferometric instruments installed at the focus of the CHARA Array located at Mount Wilson,…
ANDES, the high-resolution spectrograph of the ELT: simulated performance of the CORO module and overview of the high-contrast capabilities for exoplanet observations
M. N'Diaye, A. Simonnin, A. Spang +19
We present the simulated performance of the coronagraph (CORO) module for ANDES, the Extremely Large Telescope (ELT) high-resolution spectrograph. ANDES aims to address a broad ran…
First Light for the GRAVITY+ Adaptive Optics: Extreme Adaptive Optics for the Very Large Telescope Interferometer
GRAVITY+ Collaboration, :, F. Allouche +137
GRAVITY+ improves by orders of magnitude the sensitivity, sky-coverage and contrast of the Very Large Telescope Interferometer (VLTI). A central part of this project is the develop…
GRAVITY+ adaptive optics (GPAO) tests in Europe
Florentin Millour, Guillaume Bourdarot, Jean-Baptiste Le Bouquin +54
We present in this proceeding the results of the test phase of the GRAVITY+ adaptive optics. This extreme AO will enable both high-dynamic range observations of faint companions (i…
Cascade adaptive optics with a second stage based on a Zernike wavefront sensor for exoplanet observations
M. N'Diaye, A. Vigan, B. Engler +7
Over the past decade, the high-contrast observation of disks and gas giant planets around nearby stars has been made possible on ground-based instruments using extreme adaptive opt…
ANDES, the high resolution spectrograph for the ELT: science goals, project overview and future developments
A. Marconi, M. Abreu, V. Adibekyan +286
The first generation of ELT instruments includes an optical-infrared high-resolution spectrograph, indicated as ELT-HIRES and recently christened ANDES (ArmazoNes high Dispersion E…
A dynamical measure of the black hole mass in a quasar 11 billion years ago
R. Abuter, F. Allouche, A. Amorim +124
Tight relationships exist in the local universe between the central stellar properties of galaxies and the mass of their supermassive black hole. These suggest galaxies and black h…
Exoplanet imaging with ELTs: exploring a second-stage AO with a Zernike wavefront sensor on the ESO/GHOST testbed
Mamadou N'Diaye, Arthur Vigan, Byron Engler +6
We propose to explore a cascade extreme Adaptive optics (ExAO) approach with a second stage based on a Zernike wavefront sensor (ZWFS) for exoplanet imaging and spectroscopy. Most…
The GRAVITY+ Project: Towards All-sky, Faint-Science, High-Contrast Near-Infrared Interferometry at the VLTI
GRAVITY+ Collaboration, :, Roberto Abuter +134
The GRAVITY instrument has been revolutionary for near-infrared interferometry by pushing sensitivity and precision to previously unknown limits. With the upgrade of GRAVITY and th…
CHARA/SPICA: a 6-telescope visible instrument for the CHARA Array
Denis Mourard, Philippe Berio, Cyril Pannetier +25
With a possible angular resolution down to 0.1-0.2 millisecond of arc using the 330 m baselines and the access to the 600-900 nm spectral domain, the CHARA Array is ideally configu…
SPICA-FT: The new fringe tracker of the CHARA array
Cyril Pannetier, Philippe Berio, Denis Mourard +11
SPICA-FT is part of the CHARA/SPICA instrument which combines a visible 6T fibered instrument (SPICAVIS) with a H-band 6T fringe sensor. SPICA-FT is a pairwise ABCD integrated opti…
Building a GRAVITY+ Adaptive Optics Test Bench
The Gravity Plus Consortium, Florentin Millour, Philippe Berio +22
We present the testbench aimed at integrating the GRAVITY+ adaptive optics GPAO. It consists of two independent elements, one reproducing the Coud{é} focus of the telescope, includ…
First Light for GRAVITY Wide: Large Separation Fringe Tracking for the Very Large Telescope Interferometer
