The central parsec of NGC 3783: a rotating broad emission line region, asymmetric hot dust structure, and compact coronal line region
GRAVITY Collaboration, A. Amorim, M. Bauböck +47
Using VLTI/GRAVITY and SINFONI data, we investigate the sub-pc gas and dust structure around the nearby type 1 AGN hosted by NGC 3783. The K-band coverage of GRAVITY uniquely allow…
Improved GRAVITY astrometric accuracy from modeling of optical aberrations
GRAVITY Collaboration, R. Abuter, A. Amorim +60
The GRAVITY instrument on the ESO VLTI pioneers the field of high-precision near-infrared interferometry by providing astrometry at the as level. Measurements at such…
Detection of faint stars near SgrA* with GRAVITY
GRAVITY Collaboration, R. Abuter, A. Amorim +58
The spin of the supermassive black hole that resides at the Galactic Centre can in principle be measured by accurate measurements of the orbits of stars that are much closer to Sgr…
The resolved size and structure of hot dust in the immediate vicinity of AGN
GRAVITY Collaboration, J. Dexter, J. Shangguan +42
We use VLTI/GRAVITY near-infrared interferometry measurements of 8 bright, Type 1 AGN to study the size and structure of hot dust heated by the central engine. We partially resolve…
New insights on the central stellar population and gas outflow in NGC 1068 from YJH spectroscopy with SPHERE/VLT
Pierre Vermot, Yann Clénet, Damien Gratadour
Aims: We characterise the properties of stars, dust, and gas and their spatial distribution in the central region of the Seyfert 2 galaxy NGC1068. Method: Our study is based on nea…
Detection of the gravitational redshift in the orbit of the star S2 near the Galactic centre massive black hole
GRAVITY Collaboration, R. Abuter, A. Amorim +95
The highly elliptical, 16-year-period orbit of the star S2 around the massive black hole candidate Sgr A* is a sensitive probe of the gravitational field in the Galactic centre. Ne…
Flares and variability from Sagittarius A*: five nights of simultaneous multi-wavelength observations
X. Haubois, K. Dodds-Eden, A. Weiss +8
Aims. We report on simultaneous observations and modeling of mid-infrared (MIR), near-infrared (NIR), and submillimeter (submm) emission of the source Sgr A* associated with the su…
