Resolving Vega and the inclination controversy with CHARA/MIRC
J. D. Monnier, Xiao Che, Ming Zhao +15
Optical and infrared interferometers definitively established that the photometric standard Vega (alpha Lyrae) is a rapidly rotating star viewed nearly pole-on. Recent independent…
First visual orbit for the prototypical colliding-wind binary WR 140
J. D. Monnier, Ming Zhao, E. Pedretti +14
Wolf-Rayet stars represent one of the final stages of massive stellar evolution. Relatively little is known about this short-lived phase and we currently lack reliable mass, distan…
Colder and Hotter: Interferometric imaging of β Cassiopeiae and α Leonis
X. Che, J. D. Monnier, M. Zhao +9
Near-infrared interferometers have recently imaged a number of rapidly rotating A-type stars, finding levels of gravity darkening inconsistent with theoretical expectations. Here,…
First astronomical unit scale image of the GW Ori triple. Direct detection of a new stellar companion
J. -P. Berger, J. D. Monnier, R. Millan-Gabet +17
Young and close multiple systems are unique laboratories to probe the initial dynamical interactions between forming stellar systems and their dust and gas environment. Their study…
