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…
Asteroseismology and Interferometry
M. S. Cunha, C. Aerts, J. Christensen-Dalsgaard +22
Asteroseismology provides us with a unique opportunity to improve our understanding of stellar structure and evolution. Recent developments, including the first systematic studies…
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…
Integrated optics for astronomical interferometry - VI. Coupling the light of the VLTI in K band
Jean-Baptiste Le Bouquin, Pierre Labeye, Fabien Malbet +8
Our objective is to prove that integrated optics (IO) is not only a good concept for astronomical interferometry but also a working technique with high performance. We used the com…
