The MICADO first light imager for the ELT: off-axis performance of PSF reconstruction
Matteo Simioni, Daniel Jodlbauer, Carmelo Arcidiacono +14
The highest scientific return, for adaptive optics (AO) observations, is achieved with a reliable reconstruction of the PSF. This is especially true for MICADO@ELT. In this present…
Flare emission from Sagittarius A*
A. Eckart, M. Garcia-Marin, S. N. Vogel +18
Based on Bremer et al. (2011) and Eckart et al. (2012) we report on simultaneous observations and modeling of the millimeter, near-infrared, and X-ray flare emission of the source…
Beating the confusion limit: The necessity of high angular resolution for probing the physics of Sagittarius A* and its environment: Opportunities for LINC-NIRVANA (LBT), GRAVITY (VLTI) and and METIS (E-ELT)
A. Eckart, N. Sabha, G. Witzel +16
The super-massive 4 million solar mass black hole (SMBH) SgrA* shows variable emission from the millimeter to the X-ray domain. A detailed analysis of the infrared light curves all…
Near-infrared proper motions and spectroscopy of infrared excess sources at the Galactic Center
A. Eckart, K. Muzic, S. Yazici +11
There are a number of faint compact infrared excess sources in the central stellar cluster of the Milky Way. Their nature and origin is unclear. In addition to several isolated obj…
The instrumental polarization of the Nasmyth focus polarimetric differential imager NAOS/CONICA (NACO) at the VLT - Implications for time-resolved polarimetric measurements of Sgr A*
G. Witzel, A. Eckart, R. M. Buchholz +9
We report on the results of calibrating and simulating the instrumental polarization properties of the ESO VLT adaptive optics camera system NAOS/CONICA (NACO) in the Ks-band. We u…
