A self-calibration approach for optical long baseline interferometry imaging

Serge Meimon, Laurent M. Mugnier, Guy Le Besnerais

Current optical interferometers are affected by unknown turbulent phases on each telescope. In the field of radio-interferometry, the self-calibration technique is a powerful tool…

A probable giant planet imaged in the Beta Pictoris disk

A. -M. Lagrange, D. Gratadour, G. Chauvin +12

Since the discovery of its dusty disk in 1984, Beta Pictoris has become the prototype of young early-type planetary systems, and there are now various indications that a massive Jo…

On-Line Long-Exposure Phase Diversity: a Powerful Tool for Sensing Quasi-Static Aberrations of Extreme Adaptive Optics Imaging Systems

L. M. Mugnier, J. -F. Sauvage, T. Fusco +2

The phase diversity technique is a useful tool to measure and pre-compensate for quasi-static aberrations, in particular non-common path aberrations, in an adaptive optics correcte…

The limb-darkened Arcturus; Imaging with the IOTA/IONIC interferometer

S. Lacour, S. Meimon, E. Thiebaut +14

This paper is an H band interferometric examination of Arcturus, a star frequently used as a spatial and spectral calibrator. Using the IOTA 3 telescope interferometer, we performe…
