Characterization of integrated optics components for the second generation of VLTI instruments
S. Lacour, L. Jocou, T. Moulin +10
Two of the three instruments proposed to ESO for the second generation instrumentation of the VLTI would use integrated optics for beam combination. Several design are studied, inc…
VSI: a milli-arcsec spectro-imager for the VLTI
Fabien Malbet, Pierre Kern, Jean-Philippe Berger +14
VLTi Spectro-Imager (VSI) is a proposition for a second generation VLTI instrument which is aimed at providing the ESO community with the capability of performing image synthesis a…
Bright Localized Near-Infrared Emission at 1-4 AU in the AB Aurigae Disk Revealed by IOTA Closure Phases
R. Millan-Gabet, J. D. Monnier, J. -P. Berger +13
We report on the detection of localized off-center emission at 1-4 AU in the circumstellar environment of the young stellar object AB Aurigae. We used closure phase measurements in…
VITRUV - Imaging close environments of stars and galaxies with the VLTI at milli-arcsec resolution
Fabien Malbet, Jean-Philippe Berger, Paulo Garcia +11
The VITRUV project has the objective to deliver milli-arcsecond spectro-images of the environment of compact sources like young stars, active galaxies and evolved stars to the comm…
Integrated optics for astronomical interferometry. I. Concept and astronomical applications
F. Malbet, P. Kern, I. Schanen-Duport +2
We propose a new instrumental concept for long-baseline optical single-mode interferometry using integrated optics which were developed for telecommunication. Visible and infrared…
