The apparent tail of the Galactic center object G2/DSO

Florian Peißker, Michal Zajacek, Andreas Eckart +6

The observations of the near-infrared excess object G2/DSO induced an increased attention towards the Galactic center and its vicinity. The predicted flaring event in 2014 and the…

Gas and stellar dynamics in Stephan's Quintet: Mapping the kinematics in a closely interacting compact galaxy group

M. Yttergren, P. Misquitta, Á. Sánchez-Monge +4

Stephan's Quintet (SQ) is a nearby compact galaxy group and a perfect laboratory for studying the process of galaxy evolution through galaxy harassment and interaction. By analysin…

A geometric distance to the supermassive black Hole of NGC 3783

GRAVITY Collaboration, A. Amorim, M. Bauböck +45

The angular size of the broad line region (BLR) of the nearby active galactic nucleus (AGN) NGC 3783 has been spatially resolved by recent observations with VLTI/GRAVITY. A reverbe…

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…

First observed interaction of the circumstellar envelope of an S-star with the environment of Sgr A*

Florian Peißker, Basel Ali, Michal Zajaček +7

Several publications highlight the importance of the observations of bow shocks to learn more about the surrounding interstellar medium and radiation field. We revisit the most pro…
