The ExoGRAVITY project: using single mode interferometry to characterize exoplanets
S. Lacour, J. J. Wang, M. Nowak +89
Combining adaptive optics and interferometric observations results in a considerable contrast gain compared to single-telescope, extreme AO systems. Taking advantage of this, the E…
The GRAVITY instrument software / High-level software
Leonard Burtscher, Ekkehard Wieprecht, Thomas Ott +30
GRAVITY is the four-beam, near- infrared, AO-assisted, fringe tracking, astrometric and imaging instrument for the Very Large Telescope Interferometer (VLTI). It is requiring the d…
The fiber coupler and beam stabilization system of the GRAVITY interferometer
O. Pfuhl, M. Haug, F. Eisenhauer +20
We present the installed and fully operational beam stabilization and fiber injection subsystem feeding the 2nd generation VLTI instrument GRAVITY. The interferometer GRAVITY requi…
GRAVITY: beam stabilization and light injection subsystems
O. Pfuhl, M. Haug, F. Eisenhauer +9
We present design results of the 2nd generation VLTI instrument GRAVITY beam stabilization and light injection subsystems. Designed to deliver micro-arcsecond astrometry, GRAVITY r…
The Planar Optics Phase Sensor: a study for the VLTI 2nd Generation Fringe Tracker
Nicolas Blind, Jean-Baptiste LeBouquin, Olivier Absil +16
In a few years, the second generation instruments of the Very Large Telescope Interferometer (VLTI) will routinely provide observations with 4 to 6 telescopes simultaneously. To re…
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…
