A first look at the protoplanet WISPIT 2 b with VLTI/GRAVITY+

GRAVITY+ Collaboration, K. Abd El Dayem, R. Abuter +116

Confirmed observations of young protoplanets actively undergoing the process of formation have remained rare to date. In this Letter, we present new insights into the nature of the…

Astrometric detection of a Neptune-mass candidate planet in the nearest M-dwarf binary system GJ65 with VLTI/GRAVITY

GRAVITY Collaboration, R. Abuter, A. Amorim +65

The detection of low-mass planets orbiting the nearest stars is a central stake of exoplanetary science, as they can be directly characterized much more easily than their distant c…

Polarimetry and Astrometry of NIR Flares as Event Horizon Scale, Dynamical Probes for the Mass of Sgr A*

The GRAVITY Collaboration, R. Abuter, N. Aimar +66

We present new astrometric and polarimetric observations of flares from Sgr A* obtained with GRAVITY, the near-infrared interferometer at ESO's Very Large Telescope Interferometer…

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…

GRAVITY faint: reducing noise sources in GRAVITY with a fast metrology attenuation system

F. Widmann, S. Gillessen, T. Ott +28

With the upgrade from GRAVITY to GRAVITY the instrument will evolve into an all-sky interferometer that can observe faint targets, such as high redshift AGN. Observing the fain…

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…
