Spatially resolving the AGB star V3 in the metal-poor globular cluster 47 Tuc with VLTI/GRAVITY

Keiichi Ohnaka, Gerd Weigelt, Karl-Heinz Hofmann +1

Mass loss at the asymptotic giant branch (AGB) plays an important role not only in the final fates of stars, but also in the chemical evolution of galaxies. Nevertheless, the metal…

The dusty heart of Circinus II. Scrutinizing the LM-band dust morphology using MATISSE

Jacob W. Isbell, Jörg-Uwe Pott, Klaus Meisenheimer +11

In this paper we present the first-ever - and -band interferometric observations of Circinus, building upon a recent -band analysis. We used these observations to reconstr…

The disk of FU Orionis viewed with MATISSE/VLTI: first interferometric observations in and bands

F. Lykou, P. Ábrahám, L. Chen +30

The disk of FU Orionis is marginally resolved with MATISSE, suggesting that the region emitting in the thermal infrared is rather compact. An upper limit of mas (in…

Thermal imaging of dust hiding the black hole in the Active Galaxy NGC 1068

Violeta Gamez Rosas, Jacob W. Isbell, Walter Jaffe +49

In the widely accepted 'Unified Model' solution of the classification puzzle of Active Galactic Nuclei, the orientation of a dusty accretion torus around the central black hole dom…

Mid-infrared circumstellar emission of the long-period Cepheid l Carinae resolved with VLTI/MATISSE

V. Hocdé, N. Nardetto, A. Matter +149

The nature of circumstellar envelopes (CSE) around Cepheids is still a matter of debate. The physical origin of their infrared (IR) excess could be either a shell of ionized gas, o…

The asymmetric inner disk of the Herbig Ae star HD 163296 in the eyes of VLTI/MATISSE: evidence for a vortex?

J. Varga, M. Hogerheijde, R. van Boekel +133

Context. The inner few au region of planet-forming disks is a complex environment. High angular resolution observations have a key role in understanding the disk structure and the…
