ESO User Support and Observation Preparation for VLTI Science Operations
M. Wittkowski, G. Beccari, A. Corporaal +15
We present recent enhancements to VLTI observing capabilities from a user-oriented perspective, together with new developments in ESO's Observation Handling Tools and end-to-end op…
ngVLTI: Cost and Feasibility of a Four-Telescope VLTI Expansion for Milliarcsecond-Scale Imaging
Sylvestre Lacour, Johan Kosmalski, Michael Mueller +8
We assess the cost and technical feasibility of extending the Very Large Telescope Interferometer (VLTI) through the addition of four 8 m-class Unit Telescopes (UTs), an upgrade we…
A preliminary exploration of the effects of baseline length for the LIFE space mission
Jonah T. Hansen, Thomas Birbacher, Felix A. Dannert +7
By aiming to find and characterise dozens of habitable exoplanets through the technique of nulling interferometry, the LIFE space mission will produce transformational science. One…
Continuing to Advance European High Contrast Imaging Research and Development towards HWO and LIFE
Gael Chauvin, Oscar Carrion Gonzalez, Iva Laginja +20
The European Research and Development for Space based High Contrast Imaging II Workshop, held at MPIA in May 2025, advanced Europe strategic coordination in support of future exopl…
Exoplanet atmospheres and demographics in the 2040s
Jens Kammerer, Sydney Vach, Sylvestre Lacour +7
Direct observations of exoplanets probe the demographics and atmospheric composition of young self-luminous companions, yielding insight into their formation and early evolution hi…
Bridging stellar evolution and planet formation: from birth, to survivors of the fittest, to the second generation of planets
Akke Corporaal, Toon De Prins, Léa Planquart +10
Stars and planets form, live, and evolve in unison. Throughout the life of a star, dusty circumstellar discs and stellar outflows influence the further evolution of both the star(s…
Hunting exomoons with a kilometric baseline interferometer
Thomas O. Winterhalder, Antoine Mérand, Sylvestre Lacour +3
Despite numerous search campaigns based on a diverse set of observational techniques, exomoons - prospective satellites of extrasolar planets - remain an elusive and hard-to-pin-do…
