The GRAVITY Young Stellar Object survey IV. The CO overtone emission in 51 Oph at sub-au scales

GRAVITY Collaboration, M. Koutoulaki, R. Garcia Lopez +69

51 Oph is a Herbig Ae/Be star that exhibits strong near-infrared CO ro-vibrational emission at 2.3 micron, most likely originating in the innermost regions of a circumstellar disc.…

Detection of faint stars near SgrA* with GRAVITY

GRAVITY Collaboration, R. Abuter, A. Amorim +58

The spin of the supermassive black hole that resides at the Galactic Centre can in principle be measured by accurate measurements of the orbits of stars that are much closer to Sgr…

Direct confirmation of the radial-velocity planet Pic c

M. Nowak, S. Lacour, A. -M. Lagrange +90

Methods used to detect giant exoplanets can be broadly divided into two categories: indirect and direct. Indirect methods are more sensitive to planets with a small orbital period,…

Dynamically important magnetic fields near the event horizon of Sgr A*

GRAVITY Collaboration, A. Jiménez-Rosales, J. Dexter +53

We study the time-variable linear polarisation of Sgr A* during a bright NIR flare observed with the GRAVITY instrument on July 28, 2018. Motivated by the time evolution of both th…

The GRAVITY young stellar object survey III. The dusty disk of RY Lup

GRAVITY Collaboration, Y. -I. Bouarour, K. Perraut +55

We use PIONIER data from the ESO archive and GRAVITY data that were obtained in June 2017 with the four 8m telescopes. We use a parametric disk model and the 3D radiative transfer…

The Flux Distribution of Sgr A*

The GRAVITY Collaboration, R. Abuter, A. Amorim +54

The Galactic Center black hole Sagittarius A* is a variable NIR source that exhibits bright flux excursions called flares. The low-flux density turnover of the flux distribution is…
