Transiting exoplanets and magnetic spots characterized with optical interferometry
R. Ligi, D. Mourard, A. -M. Lagrange +2
Stellar activity causes difficulties in the characterization of transiting exoplanets. Studies have been performed to quantify its impact on infrared interferometry, but not in the…
Benchmark stars for Gaia: fundamental properties of the Population II star HD140283 from interferometric, spectroscopic and photometric data
O. Creevey, F. Thévenin, P. Berio +17
We determined the fundamental properties of HD 140283 by obtaining new interferometric and spectroscopic measurements and combining them with photometry from the literature. The in…
Improving the surface brightness-color relation for early-type stars using optical interferometry
M. Challouf, N. Nardetto, D. Mourard +18
The aim of this work is to improve the SBC relation for early-type stars in the color domain, using optical interferometry. Observations of eight B- and A-type…
Study of the sub-AU disk of the Herbig B[e] star HD 85567 with near-infrared interferometry
J. Vural, S. Kraus, A. Kreplin +5
Context: The structure of the inner disk of Herbig Be stars is not well understood. The continuum disks of several Herbig Be stars have inner radii that are smaller than predicted…
The GRAVITY metrology system: modeling a metrology in optical fibers
N. Blind, H. Huber, F. Eisenhauer +20
GRAVITY is the second generation VLT Interferometer (VLTI) instrument for high-precision narrow-angle astrometry and phase-referenced interferometric imaging. The laser metrology s…
GRAVITY: the Calibration Unit
N. Blind, F. Eisenhauer, M. Haug +19
We present in this paper the design and characterisation of a new sub-system of the VLTI 2nd generation instrument GRAVITY: the Calibration Unit. The Calibration Unit provides all…
