The S stars' zone of avoidance in the Galactic center
Aleksey Generozov, Hagai B. Perets, Matteo S. Bordoni +9
This paper investigates the origin and orbital evolution of S stars in the Galactic center using models of binary disruption and relaxation processes. We focus on explaining the re…
Improving constraints on the extended mass distribution in the Galactic Center with stellar orbits
The GRAVITY Collaboration, Karim Abd El Dayem, Roberto Abuter +66
Studying the orbital motion of stars around Sagittarius A* in the Galactic Center provides a unique opportunity to probe the gravitational potential near the supermassive black hol…
GRAVITY+ Wavefront Sensors: High-Contrast, Laser Guide Star, Adaptive Optics systems for the VLTI
G. Bourdarot, F. Eisenhauer, S. Yazıcı +53
We present the Wavefront Sensor units of the Gravity Plus Adaptive Optics (GPAO) system, which will equip all 8m class telescopes of the VLTI and is an instrumental part of the GRA…
First Resolution of Microlensed Images of a Binary-Lens Event
Zexuan Wu, Subo Dong, A. Mérand +72
We resolve the multiple images of the binary-lens microlensing event ASASSN-22av using the GRAVITY instrument of the Very Large Telescope Interferometer (VLTI). The light curves sh…
Observations of Microlensed Images with Dual-field Interferometry: On-sky Demonstration and Prospects
P. Mroz, S. Dong, A. Merand +57
Interferometric observations of gravitational microlensing events offer an opportunity for precise, efficient, and direct mass and distance measurements of lensing objects, especia…
General Relativistic effects and the NIR variability of Sgr A* II: A systematic approach to temporal asymmetry
Sebastiano D. von Fellenberg, Gunther Witzel, Michi Bauboeck +20
A systematic study, based on the third-moment structure function, of Sgr A*'s variability finds an exponential rise time and de…
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…
