FU Orionis disk outburst: evidence for a gravitational instability scenario triggered in a magnetically dead zone
G. Bourdarot, J-P. Berger, G. Lesur +10
Context: FUors outbursts are a crucial stage of accretion in young stars. However a complete mechanism at the origin of the outburst still remains missing. Aims: We aim at constrai…
First astronomical unit scale image of the GW Ori triple. Direct detection of a new stellar companion
J. -P. Berger, J. D. Monnier, R. Millan-Gabet +17
Young and close multiple systems are unique laboratories to probe the initial dynamical interactions between forming stellar systems and their dust and gas environment. Their study…
Optical configuration and analysis of the AMBER/VLTI instrument
S. Robbe-Dubois, S. Lagarde, R. G. Petrov +23
This paper describes the design goals and engineering efforts that led to the realization of AMBER (Astronomical Multi BEam combineR) and to the achievement of its present performa…
VLTI/AMBER interferometric observations of the recurrent Nova RS Oph 5.5 days after outburst
Olivier Chesneau, N. Nardetto, F. Millour +15
We report on interferometric AMBER/VLTI observations of the recurrent nova RS Oph five days after its outburst on 2006 Feb 12. Using three baselines from 44 to 86m, and a spectral…
An asymmetry detected in the disk of Kappa CMa with the AMBER/VLTI
Anthony Meilland, Florentin Millour, Philippe Stee +7
Aims. We study the geometry and kinematics of the circumstellar environment of the Be star Kappa CMa in the Br gamma emission line and its nearby continuum. Methods. We use the VLT…
Direct constraint on the distance of y2 Velorum from AMBER/VLTI observations
F. Millour, R. G. Petrov, O. Chesneau +95
In this work, we present the first AMBER observations, of the Wolf-Rayet and O (WR+O) star binary system y2 Velorum. The AMBER instrument was used with the telescopes UT2, UT3, and…
