The mass distribution in the Galactic Centre from interferometric astrometry of multiple stellar orbits
GRAVITY Collaboration, R. Abuter, N. Aimar +62
The stars orbiting the compact radio source Sgr A* in the Galactic Centre are precision probes of the gravitational field around the closest massive black hole. In addition to adap…
Deep Images of the Galactic Center with GRAVITY
GRAVITY Collaboration, R. Abuter, N. Aimar +65
Stellar orbits at the Galactic Center provide a very clean probe of the gravitational potential of the supermassive black hole. They can be studied with unique precision, beyond th…
The mass of Beta Pictoris c from Beta Pictoris b orbital motion
S. Lacour, J. J. Wang, L. Rodet +96
We aim to demonstrate that the presence and mass of an exoplanet can now be effectively derived from the astrometry of another exoplanet. We combined previous astrometry of Pic…
Constraining particle acceleration in Sgr A* with simultaneous GRAVITY, Spitzer, NuSTAR and Chandra observations
R. Abuter, A. Amorim, M. Bauböck +81
We report the time-resolved spectral analysis of a bright near-infrared and moderate X-ray flare of Sgr A*. We obtained light curves in the -, -, and -bands in the mid- an…
GRAVITY K-band spectroscopy of HD 206893 B: brown dwarf or exoplanet
J. Kammerer, S. Lacour, T. Stolker +94
We aim to reveal the nature of the reddest known substellar companion HD 206893 B by studying its near-infrared colors and spectral morphology and by investigating its orbital moti…
MOLsphere and pulsations of the Galactic Center's red supergiant GCIRS 7 from VLTI/GRAVITY
GRAVITY Collaboration, G. Rodríguez-Coira, T. Paumard +55
GCIRS 7, the brightest star in the Galactic central parsec, formed Myr ago together with dozens of massive stars in a disk orbiting the central black-hole. It has been argu…
A measure of the size of the magnetospheric accretion region in TW Hydrae
R. Garcia Lopez, A. Natta, A. Caratti o Garatti +69
Stars form by accreting material from their surrounding disks. There is a consensus that matter flowing through the disk is channelled onto the stellar surface by the stellar magne…
Constraining the Nature of the PDS 70 Protoplanets with VLTI/GRAVITY
J. J. Wang, A. Vigan, S. Lacour +101
We present K-band interferometric observations of the PDS 70 protoplanets along with their host star using VLTI/GRAVITY. We obtained K-band spectra and 100 as precision astromet…
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…
The ExoGRAVITY project: using single mode interferometry to characterize exoplanets
S. Lacour, J. J. Wang, M. Nowak +89
Combining adaptive optics and interferometric observations results in a considerable contrast gain compared to single-telescope, extreme AO systems. Taking advantage of this, the E…
