The dusty heart of Circinus II. Scrutinizing the LM-band dust morphology using MATISSE

Jacob W. Isbell, Jörg-Uwe Pott, Klaus Meisenheimer +11

In this paper we present the first-ever - and -band interferometric observations of Circinus, building upon a recent -band analysis. We used these observations to reconstr…

Locating dust and molecules in the inner circumstellar environment of R~Sculptoris with MATISSE

Julien Drevon, Florentin Millour, Pierre Cruzalèbes +49

AGB stars are one of the main sources of dust production in the Galaxy. However, it is not clear what this process looks like and where the dust is condensing in the circumstellar…

ALMA imaging of the cold molecular and dusty disk in the type 2 active nucleus of the Circinus galaxy

Konrad R. W. Tristram, C. M. Violette Impellizzeri, Zhi-Yu Zhang +9

We aim to shed light on the physical properties and kinematics of the molecular material in the nucleus of one of the closest type 2 active galaxies. To this end, we obtained high…

Thermal imaging of dust hiding the black hole in the Active Galaxy NGC 1068

Violeta Gamez Rosas, Jacob W. Isbell, Walter Jaffe +49

In the widely accepted 'Unified Model' solution of the classification puzzle of Active Galactic Nuclei, the orientation of a dusty accretion torus around the central black hole dom…

The extended atmosphere and circumstellar environment of the cool evolved star VX Sagittarii as seen by MATISSE

A. Chiavassa, K. Kravchenko, M. Montargès +50

Context. VX Sgr is a cool, evolved, and luminous red star whose stellar parameters are difficult to determine, which affects its classification. Aims. We aim to spatially resolve t…

VLTI-MATISSE L- and N-band aperture-synthesis imaging of the unclassified B[e] star FS Canis Majoris

K. -H. Hofmann, A. Bensberg, D. Schertl +58

Context: FS Canis Majoris (FS CMa, HD 45677) is an unclassified B[e] star surrounded by an inclined dust disk. The evolutionary stage of FS CMa is still debated. Perpendicular to t…
