MATISSE in the era of GRAVITY+

Florentin Millour, Anthony Soulain, St{é}phane Lagarde +28

MATISSE, the mid-infrared spectro-interferometric imager of the Very Large Telescope Interferometer (VLTI), has been feeding on the light corrected by the GRAVITY+ Adaptive Optics…

STARSFLUX: an all-sky catalogue of absolute spectro-photometric calibrators from 0.3 to 30 m

Violeta Gámez Rosas, Michiel Hogerheijde, Roy van Boekel +10

Obtaining accurate fluxes for faint sources from the ground at near- and mid-infrared wavelengths is challenging because of rapidly varying atmospheric absorption, and is often lim…

Shocks, Winds, and a Torus: The Large Binocular Telescope Interferometer (LBTI) Resolves the Active Nucleus of NGC 4151

Jacob W. Isbell, Steve Ertel, Makoto Kishimoto +12

We present mid-infrared (MIR) observations of the Seyfert 1 galaxy NGC 4151 using the Large Binocular Telescope Interferometer (LBTI). We took open-loop Fizeau images with 66-104 m…

GRAVITY for MATISSE -- Improving the MATISSE performance with the GRAVITY fringe tracker

J. Woillez, R. Petrov, R. Abuter +23

Context: MATISSE, the mid-infrared spectro-imaging instrument of VLTI, was designed to deliver its advertised performance when paired with an external second generation fringe trac…

Data reduction for the MATISSE instrument

Florentin Millour, P Berio, M Heininger +15

We present in this paper the general formalism and data processing steps used in the MATISSE data reduction software, as it has been developed by the MATISSE consortium. The MATISS…

Revealing the large nuclear dust structures in NGC 1068 with MIDI/VLTI

N. López-Gonzaga, W. Jaffe, L. Burtscher +2

To understand the relation between the small "obscuring torus" and dusty structures at larger scales (5-10 pc) in NGC 1068, we use ESO's Mid-Infrared Interferometer (MIDI) with the…

The dusty torus in the Circinus galaxy: a dense disk and the torus funnel

K. R. W. Tristram, L. Burtscher, W. Jaffe +5

(Abridged) With infrared interferometry it is possible to resolve the nuclear dust distributions that are commonly associated with the dusty torus in active galactic nuclei (AGN).…

The complexity of parsec-scaled dusty tori in AGN

K. R. W. Tristram, M. Schartmann, L. Burtscher +5

Warm gas and dust surround the innermost regions of active galactic nuclei (AGN). They provide the material for accretion onto the super-massive black hole and they are held respon…

Far Ultraviolet Emission in the A2597 and A2204 Brightest Cluster Galaxies

J. B. R. Oonk, N. A. Hatch, W. Jaffe +2

We use the Hubble Space Telescope ACS/SBC and Very Large Telescope FORS cameras to observe the Brightest Cluster Galaxies in Abell 2597 and Abell 2204 in the far-ultraviolet (FUV)…

The Distribution and Condition of the Warm Molecular Gas in Abell 2597 and Sersic 159-03

J. B. R. Oonk, W. Jaffe, M. N. Bremer +1

We have used the SINFONI integral field spectrograph to map the near-infrared K-band emission lines of molecular and ionised hydrogen in the central regions of two cool core galaxy…
