A probable giant planet imaged in the Beta Pictoris disk
A. -M. Lagrange, D. Gratadour, G. Chauvin +12
Since the discovery of its dusty disk in 1984, Beta Pictoris has become the prototype of young early-type planetary systems, and there are now various indications that a massive Jo…
PSF reconstruction for NAOS-CONICA
Yann Clénet, Markus Kasper, Eric Gendron +7
Adaptive optics (AO) allows one to derive the point spread function (PSF) simultaneously to the science image, which is a major advantage in post-processing tasks such as astrometr…
A dual emission mechanism in Sgr A*/L' ?
Yann Clénet, Daniel Rouan, Damien Gratadour +4
We have collected in 2004 adaptive optics corrected L' images of the Galactic Center region with NAOS-CONICA at VLT. A strong variability was observed as well as a correlation betw…
Detection of the Sgr A* activity at 3.8 and 4.8 microns with NACO
Y. Clénet, D. Rouan, D. Gratadour +6
L'-band (lambda=3.8 microns) and M'-band (lambda=4.8 microns) observations of the Galactic Center region, performed in 2003 at VLT (ESO) with the adaptive optics imager NACO, have…
Unveiling the central parsec region of an AGN: the Circinus nucleus in the near infrared with the VLT
M. Almudena Prieto, K. Meisenheimer, Olivier Marco +12
VLT J- to M\p-band adaptive optics observations of the Circinus Galaxy on parsec scales resolve a central bright Ks-band source with a FWHM size of 1.9 0.6 pc. This source is…
Hot Very Small dust Grains in NGC 1068 seen in jet induced structures thanks to VLT/NACO adaptive optics
Daniel Rouan, Francois Lacombe, Eric Gendron +12
We present K, L and M diffraction-limited images of NGC 1068 obtained with NAOS+CONICA at VLT/YEPUN over a 3.5" field around the central engine. Hot dust (Tcol = 550-650 K) is foun…
