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…
The Evaporating Massive Embedded Stellar Cluster IRS 13 Close to Sgr A*. I. Detection of a rich population of dusty objects in the IRS 13 cluster
Florian Peißker, Michal Zajaček, Lauritz Thomkins +6
A detailed analysis of the Nuclear Stellar Cluster (NSC) concedes not only the existence of the Scluster with its fast-moving stars and the supermassive black hole (SMBH) Sgr A*. I…
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…
First rest-frame infrared spectrum of a z>7 quasar: JWST/MRS observations of J1120+0641
Sarah E. I. Bosman, Javier Álvarez-Márquez, Luis Colina +29
We present a JWST/MRS spectrum of the quasar J1120+0641 at z=7.0848, the first spectroscopic observation of a reionisation-era quasar in the rest-frame infrared (m). In…
