Embedded AGN and star formation in the central 80 pc of IC 3639

J. A. Fernández-Ontiveros, K. R. W. Tristram, S. Hönig +2

[Abridged] Methods: We use interferometric observations in the -band with VLTI/MIDI to resolve the mid-IR nucleus of IC 3639. The origin of the nuclear infrared emission is dete…

Gas dynamics in the inner few AU around the Herbig B[e] star MWC297: Indications of a disk wind from kinematic modeling and velocity-resolved interferometric imaging

Edward Hone, Stefan Kraus, Alexander Kreplin +4

We present near-infrared AMBER (R = 12, 000) and CRIRES (R = 100, 000) observations of the Herbig B[e] star MWC297 in the hydrogen Br-gamma-line. Using the VLTI unit telescopes, we…

A study of dust properties in the inner sub-au region of the Herbig Ae star HD 169142 with VLTI/PIONIER

L. Chen, A. Kospal, P. Abraham +3

An essential step to understanding protoplanetary evolution is the study of disks that contain gaps or inner holes. The pretransitional disk around the Herbig star HD 169142 exhibi…

Vigorous atmospheric motion in the red supergiant star Antares

K. Ohnaka, G. Weigelt, K. -H. Hofmann

Red supergiant stars represent a late stage of the evolution of stars more massive than about nine solar masses, in which they develop complex, multi-component atmospheres. Bright…

Aperture synthesis imaging of the carbon AGB star R Sculptoris: Detection of a complex structure and a dominating spot on the stellar disk

M. Wittkowski, K. -H. Hofmann, S. Höfner +16

We present near-infrared interferometry of the carbon-rich asymptotic giant branch (AGB) star R Sculptoris. The visibility data indicate a broadly circular resolved stellar disk wi…
