Interferometric Detection and Orbit Modeling of the Subcomponent in the Hot-dust System Tuc A: A Low-mass Star on an Eccentric Orbit in a Hierarchical-quintuple System

T. A. Stuber, A. Mérand, F. Kirchschlager +19

The system Tuc A is part of a hierarchical-quintuple system and is a prime target for studies of hot-exozodiacal dust, because a time-variable near-infrared excess has been det…

Review and prospects of hot exozodiacal dust research for future exo-Earth direct imaging missions

Steve Ertel, Tim D. Pearce, John H. Debes +12

Hot exozodiacal dust is dust in the innermost regions of planetary systems, at temperatures around 1000K to 2000K, and commonly detected by near-infrared interferometry. The phenom…

History and Habitability of the LP 890-9 Planetary System

Rory Barnes, Laura N. R. do Amaral, Jessica Birky +42

We present numerous aspects of the evolution of the LP 890-9 (SPECULOOS-2/TOI-4306) planetary system, focusing on the likelihood that planet c can support life. We find that the ho…

Detection of non-radial pulsation and faint companion in the symbiotic star CH Cyg

E. Pedretti, J. D. Monnier, S. Lacour +10

We have detected asymmetry in the symbiotic star CH Cyg through the measurement of precision closure-phase with the IONIC beam combiner, at the IOTA interferometer. The position of…

The Importance of Phase in Nulling Interferometry and a Three Telescope Closure-Phase Nulling Interferometer Concept

W. C. Danchi, J. Rajagopal, M. Kuchner +2

We discuss the theory of the Bracewell nulling interferometer and explicitly demonstrate that the phase of the "white light" null fringe is the same as the phase of the bright outp…
