Eta Car through the eyes of interferometers

Olivier Chesneau, R. Van Boekel, T. Herbst +6

The core of the nebula surrounding Eta Carinae has recently been observed with VLT/NACO, VLTI/VINCI, VLTI/MIDI and VLTI/AMBER in order to spatially and spectrally constrain the war…

VLTI/VINCI observations of the nucleus of NGC 1068 using the adaptive optics system MACAO

M. Wittkowski, P. Kervella, R. Arsenault +3

We present the first near-infrared K-band long-baseline interferometric measurement of the prototype Seyfert 2 galaxy NGC 1068 with resolution lambda/B \~ 10 mas obtained with the…

Modeling of Alpha Cen and Procyon using VLTI observations

P. Kervella, F. Thevenin, P. Morel +4

We present a novel approach to model the nearby stars Alpha Cen A & B and Procyon A using asteroseismic and interferometric constraints. Using the VINCI instrument installed at the…

Tests of stellar model atmospheres by optical interferometry: VLTI/VINCI limb-darkening measurements of the M4 giant psi phe

M. Wittkowski, J. P. Aufdenberg, P. Kervella

We present K-band interferometric measurements of the limb-darkened intensity profile of the M4 giant star psi Phoenicis obtained with VLTI/VINCI. High-precision squared visibility…

VINCI / VLTI observations of Main Sequence stars

P. Kervella, F. Thevenin, P. Morel +7

Main Sequence (MS) stars are by far the most numerous class in the Universe. They are often somewhat neglected as they are relatively quiet objects (but exceptions exist), though t…
