Towards a physical understanding of the thermal background in large ground-based telescopes
Leonard Burtscher, Ioannis Politopoulos, Sergio Fernández-Acosta +11
Ground-based thermal-infrared observations have a unique scientific potential, but are also extremely challenging due to the need to accurately subtract the high thermal background…
Design, pointing control, and on-sky performance of the mid-infrared vortex coronagraph for the VLT/NEAR experiment
A. -L. Maire, E. Huby, O. Absil +16
Vortex coronagraphs have been shown to be a promising avenue for high-contrast imaging in the close-in environment of stars at thermal infrared (IR) wavelengths. They are included…
Mid-infrared photometry of the T Tauri triple system with kernel phase interferometry
J. Kammerer, M. Kasper, M. J. Ireland +11
T Tauri has long been the prototypical young pre-main-sequence star. However, it has now been decomposed into a triple system with a complex disk and outflow geometry. We aim to me…
Disentangling the AGN and Star-Formation Contributions to the Radio-X-ray Emission of Radio-Loud Quasars at 1<z<2
Mojegan Azadi, Belinda Wilkes, Joanna Kuraszkiewicz +12
We constrain the emission mechanisms responsible for the prodigious electromagnetic output generated by active galactic nuclei (AGN) and their host galaxies with a novel state-of-t…
Dark Dust and single-cloud sightlines in the ISM
R. Siebenmorgen, J. Krełowski, J. Smoker +2
The precise characteristics of clouds and the nature of dust in the diffuse interstellar medium can only be extracted by inspecting the rare cases of single-cloud sightlines. In ou…
{\sc precision}: A fast python pipeline for high-contrast imaging -- application to SPHERE observations of the red supergiant VX Sagitariae
P. Scicluna, F. Kemper, R. Siebenmorgen +3
The search for extrasolar planets has driven rapid advances in instrumentation, resulting in cameras such as SPHERE at the VLT, GPI at Gemini South and SCExAO at Subaru, capable of…
