The Synergy of Direct Imaging and Astrometry for Orbit Determination of exo-Earths

Michael Shao, Joseph Catanzarite, Xiaopei Pan

The holy grail of exoplanet searches is an exo-Earth, an Earth mass planet in the habitable zone around a nearby star. Mass is the most important parameter of a planet and can only…

FU Orionis resolved by infrared long baseline interferometry at a 2-AU scale

F. Malbet, J. -P. Berger, M. M. Colavita +3

We present the first infrared interferometric observations of a young stellar object with a spatial projected resolution better than 2 AU. The observations were obtained with the P…
