First Light for the GRAVITY+ Adaptive Optics: Extreme Adaptive Optics for the Very Large Telescope Interferometer
GRAVITY+ Collaboration, :, F. Allouche +137
GRAVITY+ improves by orders of magnitude the sensitivity, sky-coverage and contrast of the Very Large Telescope Interferometer (VLTI). A central part of this project is the develop…
Advancing European High-Contrast Imaging R&D Towards the Habitable Worlds Observatory
Iva Laginja, Óscar Carrión-González, Romain Laugier +31
The Habitable Worlds Observatory (HWO) will enable a transformative leap in the direct imaging and characterization of Earth-like exoplanets. For this, NASA is focusing on early in…
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…
First Light for GRAVITY Wide: Large Separation Fringe Tracking for the Very Large Telescope Interferometer
GRAVITY+ Collaboration, :, R. Abuter +114
GRAVITY+ is the upgrade of GRAVITY and the Very Large Telescope Interferometer (VLTI) with wide-separation fringe tracking, new adaptive optics, and laser guide stars on all four 8…
Towards a physical understanding of the thermal background in large ground-based telescopes
Leonard Burtscher, Ioannis Politopoulos, Sergio Fernández-Acosta +11
Ground-based thermal-infrared observations have a unique scientific potential, but are also extremely challenging due to the need to accurately subtract the high thermal background…
The GRAVITY fringe tracker
S. Lacour, R. Dembet, R. Abuter +17
The GRAVITY instrument has been commissioned on the VLTI during 2016 and is now available to the astronomical community. It is the first optical interferometer capable of observing…
