A measure of the size of the magnetospheric accretion region in TW Hydrae
R. Garcia Lopez, A. Natta, A. Caratti o Garatti +69
Stars form by accreting material from their surrounding disks. There is a consensus that matter flowing through the disk is channelled onto the stellar surface by the stellar magne…
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.…
VLTI/PIONIER reveals the close environment of the evolved system HD101584
J. Kluska, H. Olofsson, H. Van Winckel +9
Context: The observed orbital characteristics of post-asymptotic giant branch (post-AGB) and post-red giant branch (post-RGB) binaries are not understood. We suspect that the missi…
Mid-infrared evolution of eta Car from 1968 to 2018
A. Mehner, W. -J. de Wit, D. Asmus +6
Eta Car is one of the most luminous and massive stars in our Galaxy and is the brightest mid-infrared (mid-IR) source in the sky, outside our solar system. Since the late 1990s the…
On the origin of very massive stars around NGC 3603
V. M. Kalari, J. S. Vink, W. de Wit +2
The formation of the most massive stars in the Universe remains an unsolved problem. Are they able to form in relative isolation in a manner similar to the formation of solar-type…
Resolving the MYSO binaries PDS 27 and PDS 37 with VLTI/PIONIER
E. Koumpia, K. M. Ababakr, W. J. de Wit +7
Binarity and multiplicity appear to be a common outcome in star formation. In particular, the binary fraction of massive (OB-type) stars can be very high. In many cases, the furthe…
