Imaging low-mass planets within the habitable zone of α Centauri
K. Wagner, A. Boehle, P. Pathak +39
Giant exoplanets on wide orbits have been directly imaged around young stars. If the thermal background in the mid-infrared can be mitigated, then exoplanets with lower masses can…
VLTI/VINCI observations of the nucleus of NGC 1068 using the adaptive optics system MACAO
M. Wittkowski, P. Kervella, R. Arsenault +3
We present the first near-infrared K-band long-baseline interferometric measurement of the prototype Seyfert 2 galaxy NGC 1068 with resolution lambda/B \~ 10 mas obtained with the…
Hot Very Small dust Grains in NGC 1068 seen in jet induced structures thanks to VLT/NACO adaptive optics
Daniel Rouan, Francois Lacombe, Eric Gendron +12
We present K, L and M diffraction-limited images of NGC 1068 obtained with NAOS+CONICA at VLT/YEPUN over a 3.5" field around the central engine. Hot dust (Tcol = 550-650 K) is foun…
Near-IR Images of the Torus and Micro-Spiral Structure in NGC 1068 using Adaptive Optics
D. Rouan, F. Rigaut, D. Alloin +5
We present diffraction-limited near-IR images in J, H and K of the nucleus of NGC 1068, obtained with the Adaptive Optics system {Pueo} at CFHT. The achieved resolution (0.12") rev…
Performance of the CFHT Adaptive Optics Bonnette
F. Rigaut, D. Salmon, R. Arsenault +10
Extensive results from the commissioning phase of PUEO, the adaptive optics instrument adaptor for the Canada-France-Hawaii telescope, are presented and discussed. Analyses of more…
A counter-rotating tilted gas disc in the peanut galaxy NGC~128
Eric Emsellem, Robin Arsenault
We have obtained , , HRCAM images and TIGER spectrography of the central region of the peanut galaxy NGC~128. The colour images reveal the presence of a red disc tilt…
