Beyond : Absolute Mass Sensitivity in Neutrino Oscillations
Gustavo F. S. Alves, André L. C. de Gouvêa, Joshua Kaler +2
Conventional wisdom says that neutrino oscillations measure only mass-squared differences and not the absolute neutrino mass scale. This is true, however, only at leading order in…
Asgard/NOTT: Cryogenic characterization of the mid-infrared chip
G. Garreau, D. Defrère, R. Laugier +25
NOTT is part of the new visitor instrument suite Asgard for the Very Large Telescope Interferometer (VLTI), and the first long-baseline nulling interferometer that will be operatio…
Asgard/NOTT: First lab assembly and experimental results
G. Garreau, A. Bigioli, R. Laugier +17
Asgard/NOTT is an ERC-funded project hosted at KU Leuven and is part of a new visitor instrumental suite, called Asgard, under preparation for the Very Large Telescope Interferomet…
Pushing high angular resolution and high contrast observations on the VLTI from Y to L band with the Asgard instrumental suite: integration status and plans
Marc-Antoine Martinod, Denis Defrère, Michael J. Ireland +35
ESO's Very Large Telescope Interferometer has a history of record-breaking discoveries in astrophysics and significant advances in instrumentation. The next leap forward is its new…
L-band nulling interferometry at the VLTI with Asgard/NOTT: status and plans
Denis Defrère, Romain Laugier, Marc-Antoine Martinod +43
NOTT (formerly Hi-5) is the L'-band (3.5-4.0~microns) nulling interferometer of Asgard, an instrument suite in preparation for the VLTI visitor focus. The primary scientific object…
