High contrast at short separation with VLTI/GRAVITY: Bringing Gaia companions to light
N. Pourré, T. O. Winterhalder, J. -B. Le Bouquin +173
Since 2019, GRAVITY has provided direct observations of giant planets and brown dwarfs at separations of down to 95 mas from the host star. Some of these observations have provided…
Key wavefront sensors features for laser-assisted tomographic adaptive optics systems on the Extremely Large Telescope
Thierry Fusco, Guido Agapito, Benoit Neichel +10
Laser guide star (LGS) wave-front sensing (LGSWFS) is a key element of tomographic adaptive optics system. However, when considering Extremely Large Telescope (ELT) scales, the LGS…
MAORY: A Multi-conjugate Adaptive Optics RelaY for ELT
Paolo Ciliegi, Guido Agapito, Matteo Aliverti +73
MAORY is the adaptive optics module for ELT providing two gravity invariant ports with the same optical quality for two different client instruments. It enable high angular resolut…
NAOMI: the adaptive optics system of the Auxiliary Telescopes of the VLTI
Woillez J., Abad J. A., Abuter R. +80
The tip-tilt stabilisation system of the 1.8 m Auxiliary Telescopes of the Very Large Telescope Interferometer was never dimensioned for robust fringe tracking, except when atmosph…
Characterisation of ALPAO deformable mirrors for the NAOMI VLTI Auxiliary Telescopes Adaptive Optics
Jean-Baptiste Le Bouquin, Jean-Philippe Berger, Jean-Luc Beuzit +12
The Very Large Telescope Interferometer Auxiliary Telescopes will soon be equipped with an adaptive optics system called NAOMI. The corrective optics deformable mirror is the comme…
First Light for GRAVITY: Phase Referencing Optical Interferometry for the Very Large Telescope Interferometer
GRAVITY Collaboration, R. Abuter, M. Accardo +130
GRAVITY is a new instrument to coherently combine the light of the European Southern Observatory Very Large Telescope Interferometer to form a telescope with an equivalent 130 m di…
