A realistic two-dimensional model of Altair
K. Bouchaud, A. Domiciano de Souza, M. Rieutord +2
Fast rotation is responsible for important changes in the structure and evolution of stars. Optical long baseline interferometry now permits the study of its effects on the stellar…
Science cases for a visible interferometer
Philippe Stee, France Allard, Myriam Benisty +54
High spatial resolution is the key for the understanding various astrophysical phenomena. But even with the future E-ELT, single dish instruments are limited to a spatial resolutio…
Stars with the B[e] phenomenon seen by long baseline interferometry
Marcelo Borges Fernandes, Olivier Chesneau, Michaela Kraus +11
Thanks to the high spatial resolution provided by long baseline interferometry, it is possible to understand the complex circumstellar geometry around stars with the B[e] phenomeno…
The environment of the fast rotating star Achernar - Thermal infrared interferometry with VLTI/MIDI and SIMECA modeling
Pierre Kervella, Armando Domiciano De Souza, Samer Kanaan +3
Context: As is the case of several other Be stars, Achernar is surrounded by an envelope, recently detected by near-IR interferometry. Aims: We search for the signature of circumst…
The close-in companion of the fast rotating Be star Achernar
Pierre Kervella, Armando Domiciano De Souza, Philippe Bendjoya
Context: Be stars are massive dwarf or subgiant stars that present temporary emission lines in their spectrum, and particularly in the Halpha line. The mechanism triggering these B…
On the Determination of the Rotational Oblateness of Achernar
A. C. Carciofi, A. Domiciano de Souza, A. M. Magalhaes +2
The recent interferometric study of Achernar, leading to the conclusion that its geometrical oblateness cannot be explained in the Roche approximation, has stirred substantial inte…
