Star Formation at milli-arcsecond resolution
Rene Oudmaijer, Willem-Jan de Wit
This chapter discusses the use and possibilities of optical and infrared interferometry to study star formation. The chapter starts with a brief overview of the star formation proc…
A multi-wavelength interferometric study of the massive young stellar object IRAS 13481-6124
Paul A. Boley, Stefan Kraus, Willem-Jan de Wit +7
We present new mid-infrared interferometric observations of the massive young stellar object IRAS 13481-6124, using VLTI/MIDI for spectrally-resolved, long-baseline measurements (p…
VLT/MUSE discovers a jet from the evolved B[e] star MWC 137
A. Mehner, W. J. de Wit, J. H. Groh +6
Not all stars exhibiting the optical spectral characteristics of B[e] stars share the same evolutionary stage. The Galactic B[e] star MWC 137 is a prime example of an object with u…
Accretion disks in luminous young stellar objects
M. T. Beltran, W. J. de Wit
An observational review is provided of the properties of accretion disks around young stars. It concerns the primordial disks of intermediate- and high-mass young stellar objects i…
High-resolution Br-gamma spectro-interferometry of the transitional Herbig Ae/Be star HD 100546: a Keplerian gaseous disc inside the inner rim
I. Mendigutía, W. J. de Wit, R. D. Oudmaijer +4
We present spatially and spectrally resolved Br-gamma emission around the planet-hosting, transitional Herbig Ae/Be star HD 100546. Aiming to gain insight into the physical origin…
