US and European Technology Roadmap for a Mid-infrared Space Interferometer
Peter A. Schuller, Peter R. Lawson, Olivier P. Lay +2
Studies of mid-infrared space interferometer concepts in the USA and in Europe have converged on a single architecture. We address the question of how the US and European communiti…
Multiwavelength interferometric observations and modeling of circumstellar disks
A. A. Schegerer, T. Ratzka, P. A. Schuller +3
We investigate the structure of the innermost region of three circumstellar disks around pre-main sequence stars HD 142666, AS 205 N, and AS 205 S. We determine the inner radii of…
High precision astrometry mission for the detection and characterization of nearby habitable planetary systems with the Nearby Earth Astrometric Telescope (NEAT)
Fabien Malbet, Alain Léger, Michael Shao +49
(abridged) A complete census of planetary systems around a volume-limited sample of solar-type stars (FGK dwarfs) in the Solar neighborhood with uniform sensitivity down to Earth-m…
The extreme physical properties of the CoRoT-7b super-Earth
A. Léger, O. Grasset, B. Fegley +23
The search for rocky exoplanets plays an important role in our quest for extra-terrestrial life. Here, we discuss the extreme physical properties possible for the first characteriz…
The Pulsation of Chi Cygni Imaged by Optical Interferometry; a Novel Technique to Derive Distance and Mass of Mira Stars
S. Lacour, E. Thiébaut, G. Perrin +13
We present infrared interferometric imaging of the S-type Mira star Chi Cygni. The object was observed at four different epochs in 2005-2006 with the IOTA optical interferometer (H…
Detection of non-radial pulsation and faint companion in the symbiotic star CH Cyg
E. Pedretti, J. D. Monnier, S. Lacour +10
We have detected asymmetry in the symbiotic star CH Cyg through the measurement of precision closure-phase with the IONIC beam combiner, at the IOTA interferometer. The position of…
