Asgard/NOTT: Status of laboratory nulling performance
T. Mattheussen, R. Laugier, D. Defrère +26
Nulling interferometry enables the direct detection of faint companions and circumstellar structures at angular separations unresolvable by classical, diffraction-limited imagers,…
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…
First Light for the GRAVITY+ Adaptive Optics: Extreme Adaptive Optics for the Very Large Telescope Interferometer
GRAVITY+ Collaboration, :, F. Allouche +137
GRAVITY+ improves by orders of magnitude the sensitivity, sky-coverage and contrast of the Very Large Telescope Interferometer (VLTI). A central part of this project is the develop…
VLTI Unit Telescope coudé train vibration control upgrade for GRAVITY+
Romain Laugier, Julien Woillez, Denis Defrère +15
Scaling up interferometry to 8m collectors should smooth-out the optical piston perturbations and allow a slow fringe tracker to obtain high precision correction on faint targets.…
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…
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…
