High contrast imaging at 10 microns, a search for exoplanets around: Eps Indi A, Eps Eri, Tau Ceti, Sirius A and Sirius B
P. Pathak, D. J. M. Petit dit de la Roche, M. Kasper +15
The direct imaging of rocky exoplanets is one of the major science goals for upcoming large telescopes. The contrast requirement for imaging such planets is challenging. However, t…
Report of the ESO Workshop: Ground-based Thermal Infrared Astronomy -- Past, Present and Future
Leo Burtscher, Valentin D. Ivanov, Mario van den Ancker
The ESO workshop "Ground-based thermal infrared astronomy" was held on-line October 12-16, 2020. Originally planned as a traditional in-person meeting at ESO in Garching in April 2…
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…
Disk Evolution Study Through Imaging of Nearby Young Stars (DESTINYS): A close low mass companion to ET Cha
C. Ginski, F. Ménard, Ch. Rab +25
To understand the formation of planetary systems, one needs to understand the initial conditions of planet formation, i.e. the young gas-rich planet forming disks. Spatially resolv…
Discovery of a low-mass companion embedded in the disk of the young massive star MWC 297 with VLT/SPHERE
M. Giulia Ubeira-Gabellini, Valentin Christiaens, Giuseppe Lodato +4
We report the discovery of a low-mass stellar companion around the young Herbig Be star MWC 297. We performed multi-epoch high-contrast imaging in the near infrared (NIR) with the…
4MOST Scientific Operations
C. J. Walcher, M. Banerji, C. Battistini +65
The 4MOST instrument is a multi-object spectrograph that will address Galactic and extragalactic science cases simultaneously by observing targets from a large number of different…
