Mid-infrared circumstellar emission of the long-period Cepheid l Carinae resolved with VLTI/MATISSE

V. Hocdé, N. Nardetto, A. Matter +149

The nature of circumstellar envelopes (CSE) around Cepheids is still a matter of debate. The physical origin of their infrared (IR) excess could be either a shell of ionized gas, o…

The asymmetric inner disk of the Herbig Ae star HD 163296 in the eyes of VLTI/MATISSE: evidence for a vortex?

J. Varga, M. Hogerheijde, R. van Boekel +133

Context. The inner few au region of planet-forming disks is a complex environment. High angular resolution observations have a key role in understanding the disk structure and the…

Imaging the expanding knotty structure in the close environment of the LBV star Carinae

F. Millour, E. Lagadec, M. Montargès +13

~Car is one of the most massive stars in the Galaxy. It underwent a massive eruption in the 19th century, which produced the impressive bipolar Homunculus nebula now surrounding…

Investigating the nature of the extended structure around the Herbig star RCrA using integral field and high-resolution spectroscopy

E. Rigliaco, R. Gratton, D. Mesa +24

We present a detailed analysis of the extended structure detected around the young and close-by Herbig Ae/Be star RCrA. This is a young triple system with an intermediate mass cent…

SPHERE dynamical and spectroscopic characterization of HD142527B

R. Claudi, A. -L. Maire, D. Mesa +50

We detect the accreting low-mass companion HD142527B at a separation of 73 mas (11.4 au) from the star. No other companions with mass greater than 10 MJ are visible in the field of…

Mapping of shadows cast on a protoplanetary disk by a close binary system

V. D'Orazi, R. Gratton, S. Desidera +47

For a comprehensive understanding of planetary formation and evolution, we need to investigate the environment in which planets form: circumstellar disks. Here we present high-cont…

Dynamical masses of M-dwarf binaries in young moving groups: I - The case of TWA 22 and GJ 2060

L. Rodet, M. Bonnefoy, S. Durkan +48

Evolutionary models are widely used to infer the mass of stars, brown dwarfs, and giant planets. Their predictions are thought to be less reliable at young ages ( 200 Myr) and i…

In-depth study of moderately young but extremely red, very dusty substellar companion HD206893B

P. Delorme, T. Schmidt, M. Bonnefoy +47

The substellar companion HD206893b has recently been discovered by direct imaging of its disc-bearing host star with the SPHERE instrument. We investigate the atypical properties o…

SPHERE / ZIMPOL observations of the symbiotic system R Aqr. I. Imaging of the stellar binary and the innermost jet clouds

H. M. Schmid, A. Bazzon, J. Milli +40

R Aqr is a symbiotic binary system consisting of a mira variable, a hot companion with a spectacular jet outflow, and an extended emission line nebula. We have used R Aqr as test t…
