Spectrally dispersed non-redundant aperture-masking interferometry in the thermal infrared with LBTI/ALES
T. A. Stuber, J. M. Stone, J. W. Isbell +5
Non-redundant aperture-masking interferometry maximizes the angular resolution of a telescope by turning it into an interferometric array using pupil plane masks. If the interferen…
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…
Wide Separation Planets In Time (WISPIT): Discovery of a Gap H Protoplanet WISPIT 2b with MagAO-X
Laird M. Close, Richelle F. van Capelleveen, Gabriel Weible +34
Excellent (<25 mas) H images of the star TYC 5709-354-1 led to the discovery of a rare H protoplanet. This star was discovered by the WISPIT survey to have a large multi-…
Direct imaging of AGN outflows and their origin with the 23 m Large Binocular Telescope
Jacob W. Isbell, Steve Ertel, Jörg-Uwe Pott +17
Active galactic nuclei (AGNs) are a key component of galaxy evolution due to feedback on the host from its supermassive black hole. The morphology of warm, in- and outflowing dusty…
