A first look at the protoplanet WISPIT 2 b with VLTI/GRAVITY+
GRAVITY+ Collaboration, K. Abd El Dayem, R. Abuter +116
Confirmed observations of young protoplanets actively undergoing the process of formation have remained rare to date. In this Letter, we present new insights into the nature of the…
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…
Superdiffusion at the Galactic Centre
Pau Amaro Seoane, Kostas Tzanavaris, Reinhard Genzel +14
Tracking S-star cluster orbits around Sgr A* calibrates orbital transport models for space-borne gravitational wave detectors. Standard kinetic theories model this cluster via loca…
Stellar rotation of S301 as a macroscopic gyroscope to test general relativity
Pau Amaro Seoane, Xian Chen, Alejandro Torres-Orjuela +16
Stellar trajectories around the Galactic Center provide a testing environment for general relativity. The intrinsic rotation of these stars evolves under covariant transport in cur…
S301 and friends: Measuring the spin of Sgr A*
T. Piran, P. Amaro-Seoane, B. Aytac +15
The discovery of S301 (GRAVITY Collaboration et al., 2026) with pericenter distance rp= 280rg and eccentricity e=0.9825, opens the prospect of measuring the spin parameter of Sgr A…
Discovery of a star sensitive to the spin of Sgr A*
K. Abd El Dayem, R. Abuter, N. Aimar +85
Residing in the center of the Milky Way, Sgr A* is the closest massive black hole (MBH). Its vicinity has allowed measuring individual stellar orbits around it. The stars act as te…
Using VLTI/GRAVITY+ to determine the identity of a third planet candidate in the PDS 70 system
David Trevascus, Wolfgang Brandner, Olga Balsalobre-Ruza +75
Detections of protoplanets are rare and protoplanetary disk features mischaracterized as planets are common. PDS 70 is one of only two stars known to host multiple confirmed protop…
Direct imaging discovery of a young giant planet orbiting on Solar System scales
T. Stolker, M. Samland, L. B. F. M. Waters +102
HD 135344 AB is a young visual binary system that is best known for the protoplanetary disk around the secondary star. The circumstellar environment of the A0-type primary star, on…
Impact of a granular mass distribution on the orbit of S2 in the Galactic center
Matteo Sadun Bordoni, Roberto Capuzzo Dolcetta, Aleksey Generozov +10
The orbit of the S2 star around Sagittarius A* provides a unique opportunity to test general relativity and study dynamical processes near a supermassive black hole. Observations h…
Orbit and atmosphere of HIP 99770 b through the eyes of VLTI/GRAVITY
T. O. Winterhalder, J. Kammerer, S. Lacour +92
Context: Inferring the likely formation channel of giant exoplanets and brown dwarf companions from orbital and atmospheric observables remains a formidable challenge. Further and…
The S stars' zone of avoidance in the Galactic center
Aleksey Generozov, Hagai B. Perets, Matteo S. Bordoni +9
This paper investigates the origin and orbital evolution of S stars in the Galactic center using models of binary disruption and relaxation processes. We focus on explaining the re…
Improving constraints on the extended mass distribution in the Galactic Center with stellar orbits
The GRAVITY Collaboration, Karim Abd El Dayem, Roberto Abuter +66
Studying the orbital motion of stars around Sagittarius A* in the Galactic Center provides a unique opportunity to probe the gravitational potential near the supermassive black hol…
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…
General Relativistic effects and the NIR variability of Sgr A* II: A systematic approach to temporal asymmetry
Sebastiano D. von Fellenberg, Gunther Witzel, Michi Bauboeck +20
A systematic study, based on the third-moment structure function, of Sgr A*'s variability finds an exponential rise time and de…
