First VLTI/MIDI observations of a Be star: Alpha Ara
Olivier Chesneau, A. Meilland, T. Rivinius +12
We present the first VLTI/MIDI observations of the Be star Alpha Ara, showing a nearly unresolved circumstellar disk in the N band. The interferometric measurements made use of the…
Direct measurement of the size and shape of the present-day stellar wind of Eta Carinae
R. van Boekel, P. Kervella, M. Schoeller +7
We present new high angular resolution observations at near-IR wavelengths of the core of the Luminous Blue Variable Eta Carinae, using NAOS-CONICA at the VLT and VINCI at the VLT…
The spinning-top Be star Achernar from VLTI-VINCI
A. Domiciano de Souza, P. Kervella, S. Jankov +4
We report here the first observations of a rapidly rotating Be star, Eridani, using Earth-rotation synthesis on the Very Large Telescope (VLT) Interferometer. Our measures corr…
HST observations of the metal rich globular clusters NGC6496 and NGC6352
L. Pulone, G. De Marchi, S. Covino +1
Deep exposures of the metal-rich globular clusters NGC6496 and NGC6352 were obtained with the WFPC2 camera on board the HST through the F606W and F814W filters. The resulting colou…
Detection of a Thick Disk in the edge-on Low Surface Brightness Galaxy ESO 342-G017: I. VLT Photometry in V and R Bands
Mark J. Neeser, Penny D. Sackett, Guido De Marchi +1
We report the detection of a thick disk in the edge-on, low surface brightness (LSB), late-type spiral ESO 342-G017, based on ultra-deep images in the V and R bands obtained with t…
