The GRAVITY young stellar object survey: XI. Imaging the hot gas emission around the Herbig Ae star HD 58647

Y. -I. Bouarour, R. Garcia Lopez, J. Sanchez-Bermudez +45

We aim to investigate the origin of the HI Br emission in young stars by using GRAVITY to image the innermost region of circumstellar disks, where important physical processes s…

VLTI/GRAVITY Provides Evidence the Young, Substellar Companion HD 136164 Ab formed like a "Failed Star"

William O. Balmer, L. Pueyo, S. Lacour +93

Young, low-mass Brown Dwarfs orbiting early-type stars, with low mass ratios (), appear intrinsically rare and present a formation dilemma: could a handful of these…

Polarization analysis of the VLTI and GRAVITY

GRAVITY Collaboration, F. Widmann, X. Haubois N. Schuhler +59

The goal of this work is to characterize the polarization effects of the VLTI and GRAVITY. This is needed to calibrate polarimetric observations with GRAVITY for instrumental effec…

First VLTI/GRAVITY Observations of HIP 65426 b: Evidence for a Low or Moderate Orbital Eccentricity

S. Blunt, W. O. Balmer, J. J. Wang +95

Giant exoplanets have been directly imaged over orders of magnitude of orbital separations, prompting theoretical and observational investigations of their formation pathways. In t…

VLTI/GRAVITY Observations and Characterization of the Brown Dwarf Companion HD 72946 B

W. O. Balmer, L. Pueyo, T. Stolker +96

Tension remains between the observed and modeled properties of substellar objects, but objects in binary orbits, with known dynamical masses can provide a way forward. HD 72946 B i…

Polarimetry and Astrometry of NIR Flares as Event Horizon Scale, Dynamical Probes for the Mass of Sgr A*

The GRAVITY Collaboration, R. Abuter, N. Aimar +66

We present new astrometric and polarimetric observations of flares from Sgr A* obtained with GRAVITY, the near-infrared interferometer at ESO's Very Large Telescope Interferometer…
