Improved GRAVITY astrometric accuracy from modeling of optical aberrations

GRAVITY Collaboration, R. Abuter, A. Amorim +60

The GRAVITY instrument on the ESO VLTI pioneers the field of high-precision near-infrared interferometry by providing astrometry at the as level. Measurements at such…

Detection of faint stars near SgrA* with GRAVITY

GRAVITY Collaboration, R. Abuter, A. Amorim +58

The spin of the supermassive black hole that resides at the Galactic Centre can in principle be measured by accurate measurements of the orbits of stars that are much closer to Sgr…

The Flux Distribution of Sgr A*

The GRAVITY Collaboration, R. Abuter, A. Amorim +54

The Galactic Center black hole Sagittarius A* is a variable NIR source that exhibits bright flux excursions called flares. The low-flux density turnover of the flux distribution is…

An image of the dust sublimation region in the nucleus of NGC 1068

GRAVITY Collaboration, O. Pfuhl, R. Davies +40

We present near-infrared interferometric data on the Seyfert 2 galaxy NGC 1068, obtained with the GRAVITY instrument on the European Southern Observatory Very Large Telescope Inter…

Scalar field effects on the orbit of S2 star

António Amorim, Michael Bauböck, Myriam Benisty +35

Precise measurements of the S-stars orbiting SgrA* have set strong constraints on the nature of the compact object at the centre of the Milky Way. The presence of a black hole in t…

Test of Einstein equivalence principle near the Galactic center supermassive black hole

A. Amorim, M. Bauböck, J. P. Berger +49

During its orbit around the four million solar mass black hole Sagittarius A* the star S2 experiences significant changes in gravitational potential. We use this change of potentia…
