The dusty heart of Circinus: I. Imaging the circumnuclear dust in N-band
Jacob W. Isbell, Klaus Meisenheimer, Jörg-Uwe Pott +28
Active galactic nuclei play a key role in the evolution of galaxies, but their inner workings and physical connection to the host are poorly understood due to a lack of angular res…
MATISSE, the VLTI mid-infrared imaging spectro-interferometer
B. Lopez, S. Lagarde, R. G. Petrov +150
Context:Optical interferometry is at a key development stage. ESO's VLTI has established a stable, robust infrastructure for long-baseline interferometry for general astronomical o…
SPHERE: the exoplanet imager for the Very Large Telescope
J. -L. Beuzit, A. Vigan, D. Mouillet +108
Observations of circumstellar environments to look for the direct signal of exoplanets and the scattered light from disks has significant instrumental implications. In the past 15…
Post conjunction detection of Pictoris b with VLT/SPHERE
A. -M. Lagrange, A. Boccaletti, M. Langlois +102
With an orbital distance comparable to that of Saturn in the solar system, \bpic b is the closest (semi-major axis \,9\,au) exoplanet that has been imaged to orbit a star.…
Optical imaging polarimetry of the LkCa 15 protoplanetary disk with SPHERE ZIMPOL
Christian Thalmann, Gijs D. Mulders, Markus Janson +15
We present the first optical (590--890 nm) imaging polarimetry observations of the pre-transitional protoplanetary disk around the young solar analog LkCa 15, addressing a number o…
Asymmetric features in the protoplanetary disk MWC758
M. Benisty, A. Juhasz, A. Boccaletti +25
The study of dynamical processes in protoplanetary disks is essential to understand planet formation. In this context, transition disks are prime targets because they are at an adv…
