VLTI/MATISSE observations of the hot dust around Pictoris: Observing faint objects with MATISSE

P. Priolet, J. -C. Augereau, J. Milli +32

Context: Hot exozodiacal dust has been detected around approximately 20% of nearby main-sequence stars, indicating that it is a common feature of extrasolar planetary systems. Howe…

Using VLTI/GRAVITY+ to determine the identity of a third planet candidate in the PDS 70 system

David Trevascus, Wolfgang Brandner, Olga Balsalobre-Ruza +75

Detections of protoplanets are rare and protoplanetary disk features mischaracterized as planets are common. PDS 70 is one of only two stars known to host multiple confirmed protop…

CO and potential variability in Pictoris b with GRAVITY+

Antonia von Stauffenberg, Jonas Sauter, Paul Mollière +18

The CO/CO ratio was introduced as an indicator for where in the disk a planet has formed. Previously a lower value compared to the host star's was suggested to show t…

Direct spectroscopic confirmation of the young embedded proto-planet WISPIT 2c

Chloe Lawlor, Richelle F. van Capelleveen, Guillaume Bourdarot +18

WISPIT 2 is a nearby young star with a multi-ringed disk which was recently confirmed to host a ~4.9 MJup gas giant planet embedded in a large (60 au) gap at a radial separation of…

Exomoon search with VLTI/GRAVITY around the substellar companion HD 206893 B

Q. Kral, J. Wang, J. Kammerer +130

Direct astrometric detection of exomoons remains unexplored. This study presents the first application of high-precision astrometry to search for exomoons around substellar compani…

The ExoGRAVITY survey: A K-band spectral library of giant exoplanet and brown dwarf companions

J. Kammerer, T. O. Winterhalder, S. Lacour +106

Direct observations of exoplanet and brown dwarf companions with near-infrared interferometry, first enabled by the dual-field mode of VLTI/GRAVITY, provide unique measurements of…
