Direct imaging of AGN outflows and their origin with the 23 m Large Binocular Telescope

Jacob W. Isbell, Steve Ertel, Jörg-Uwe Pott +17

Active galactic nuclei (AGNs) are a key component of galaxy evolution due to feedback on the host from its supermassive black hole. The morphology of warm, in- and outflowing dusty…

High contrast imaging with Fizeau interferometry: The case of Altair

Eckhart Spalding, Katie M. Morzinski, Phil Hinz +5

The Large Binocular Telescope (LBT) has two 8.4-m primary mirrors that produce beams that can be combined coherently in a "Fizeau" interferometric mode. In principle, the Fizeau PS…
