The Roman Coronagraph Community Participation Program: pre-launch reference star list and impact of reference star properties on post-processing performance
Justin Hom, Schuyler G. Wolff, Jessica Gersh-Range +51
The upcoming Roman Coronagraph will be the first high-contrast instrument in space capable of high-order wavefront sensing and control technologies, a critical technology demonstra…
Resolving the smallest scales of massive star formation: A case for next-generation thermal-infrared interferometers
Emma Bordier, Evgenia Koumpia, Lucas Labadie +3
This white paper was submitted to the European Southern Observatory (ESO) as part of the "Expanding horizons: transforming astronomy in the 2040s" call. Understanding how massive s…
Exploring Exoplanets with Interferometry
Sascha P. Quanz, Bertrand Mennesson, Charles Beichman +27
(Extract from the Executive Summary) Humanity stands at the threshold of answering one of its most profound questions: Does life exist beyond Earth? Ongoing and upcoming space miss…
VLTI/PIONIER imaging of post-AGB binaries. An INSPIRING hunt for inner rim substructures in circumbinary discs
Toon De Prins, Akke Corporaal, Jacques Kluska +10
We image the detailed inner rim morphology for a sample of post-AGB circumbinary discs observed using NIR interferometry. At resolutions down to ~1-2 mas (corresponding to ~1-10 AU…
A Tentative Detection of a Point Source in the Disk Gap of HD 100546 with VLT/SPHERE-IRDIS Sparse Aperture Masking Interferometry
Dori Blakely, Doug Johnstone, Tomas Stolker +5
We re-analyze VLT/SPHERE-IRDIS K and H-band sparse aperture masking interferometry data of the transition disk HD 100546 observed in 2018 and 2021, respectively. We fit geometrical…
Simplified model(s) of the GRAVITY+ adaptive optics system(s) for performance prediction
Anthony Berdeu, Jean-Baptiste Le Bouquin, Guillaume Mella +13
In the context of the GRAVITY+ upgrade, the adaptive optics (AO) systems of the GRAVITY interferometer are undergoing a major lifting. The current CILAS deformable mirrors (DM, 90…
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…
L-band nulling interferometry at the VLTI with Asgard/NOTT: status and plans
Denis Defrère, Romain Laugier, Marc-Antoine Martinod +43
NOTT (formerly Hi-5) is the L'-band (3.5-4.0~microns) nulling interferometer of Asgard, an instrument suite in preparation for the VLTI visitor focus. The primary scientific object…
Asgard/NOTT: L-band nulling interferometry at the VLTI. II. Warm optical design and injection system
Germain Garreau, Azzurra Bigioli, Romain Laugier +17
Asgard/NOTT (previously Hi-5) is a European Research Council (ERC)-funded project hosted at KU Leuven and a new visitor instrument for the Very Large Telescope Interferometer (VLTI…
Searching for low-mass companions at small separations in transition disks with aperture masking interferometry
Tomas Stolker, Jens Kammerer, Myriam Benisty +9
Transition disks have large central cavities that have been spatially resolved during recent years. Cavities and other substructures in circumstellar disks are often interpreted as…
Interferometric Evidence for Quantum Heated Particles in the Inner Region of Protoplanetary Disks around Herbig Stars
L. Klarmann, M. Benisty, M. Min +6
To understand the chemical composition of planets, it is important to know the chemical composition of the region where they form in protoplanetary disks. Due to its fundamental ro…
The VLTI / PIONIER near-infrared interferometric survey of southern T Tauri stars. I. First results
Fabien Anthonioz, François Ménard, Christophe Pinte +15
Context : The properties of the inner disks of bright Herbig AeBe stars have been studied with near infrared (NIR) interferometry and high resolution spectroscopy. The continuum an…
An integrated optics beam combiner for the second generation VLTI instruments
M. Benisty, J-P. Berger, L. Jocou +4
The very recent years have seen a promising start in scientific publications making use of images produced by near-infrared long-baseline interferometry. The technique has reached,…
