Unlocking the dynamics of Young Stellar Objects: Time-Domain Interferometry with six 4-m class telescopes

A. Soulain, B. Lopez, A. Matter +32

The dynamics of the inner regions of young stellar objects (YSOs) is driven by a variety of physical phenomena, from magnetospheres and accretion to the dust sublimation rim and in…

The asymmetric structure of the inner disc around HD 142527 A with VLTI/MATISSE

M. B. Scheuck, R. van Boekel, Th. Henning +25

Circumstellar discs, and especially their inner regions, covering ranges from <1 au to a few astronomical units, are the birthplaces of terrestrial planets. The inner regions are t…

Gaia20dsk: A new MNor discovered by the GLORIOUS collaboration

Patrik E. Németh, Fernando Cruz-Sáenz de Miera, Ágnes Kóspál +10

Context. Among known young stellar objects (YSOs), those exhibiting the most dramatic increases in brightness due to sudden increase in mass accretion rate are eruptive young stars…

X TrA through the eyes of MATISSE: More evidence of clumpy molecular layers around C-type asymptotic giant branch stars

V. Răstău, C. Paladini, J. Drevon +22

Aims. The goal of this study is to further the understanding of the wind formation mechanism in asymptotic giant branch (AGB) stars through the analysis of the close environment (w…

The MATISSE view of the inner region of the RY Tau protoplanetary disk

J. S. Martin, J. Kobus, J. Varga +44

The T-Tauri type young stellar object RY Tau exhibits a dust depleted inner cavity characteristic of a transition disk. We constrain the spatial distribution and mineralogy of dust…

Multi-band infrared imaging reveals dusty spiral arcs around the binary B[e] star 3 Puppis

M. Abello, J. Drevon, A. Meilland +24

3 Puppis is the brightest known B[e] star. Recent work classifies this A-type object as a supergiant, yet the impact of its binarity on the circumstellar environment (CE) remains h…

An interferometric mid-infrared study of the eruptive star binary Z CMa with MATISSE/VLTI. I. Imaging the protoplanetary disks during the 2023 outburst

F. Lykou, J. Varga, F. Cruz-Saénz de Miera +14

The mid-infrared (MIR) emitting regions of the individual protoplanetary disks in the binary system Z CMa are resolved by MATISSE/VLTI. The observations were obtained during a sere…

T CrA has a companion: First direct detection of T CrA B with VLTI/MATISSE

J. Varga, A. Matter, F. Millour +21

T CrA is a Herbig Ae-type young star in a complex circumstellar environment; it includes a circumstellar disk, accretion streamers, jets, and outflows. It has long been suspected t…

An impressionist view of V Hydrae. When MATISSE paints Asymmetric Giant Blobs

L. Planquart, C. Paladini, A. Jorissen +29

Our purpose is to study the effect of binary companions located within the first 10 stellar radii from the primary AGB star. In this work, we target the mass-losing carbon star V H…

Mid-infrared evidence for iron-rich dust in the multi-ringed inner disk of HD 144432

J. Varga, L. B. F. M. Waters, M. Hogerheijde +40

Context. Rocky planets form by the concentration of solid particles in the inner few au regions of planet-forming disks. Their chemical composition reflects the materials in the di…

The disk of the eruptive protostar V900 Mon; a MATISSE/VLTI and MUSE/VLT perspective

F. Lykou, P. Ábrahám, F. Cruz-Sáenz de Miera +8

In this work, we study the silicate dust content in the disk of one of the youngest eruptive stars, V900 Mon, at the highest angular resolution probing down to the inner 10 au of s…

Brightness and mass accretion rate evolution during the 2022 burst of EX~Lupi

F. Cruz-Sáenz de Miera, Á. Kóspál, P. Ábrahám +18

EX Lupi is the prototype by which EXor-type outbursts were defined. It has experienced multiple accretion-related bursts and outbursts throughout the last decades, whose study have…

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…
