A measure of the size of the magnetospheric accretion region in TW Hydrae

R. Garcia Lopez, A. Natta, A. Caratti o Garatti +69

Stars form by accreting material from their surrounding disks. There is a consensus that matter flowing through the disk is channelled onto the stellar surface by the stellar magne…

An image of the dust sublimation region in the nucleus of NGC 1068

GRAVITY Collaboration, O. Pfuhl, R. Davies +40

We present near-infrared interferometric data on the Seyfert 2 galaxy NGC 1068, obtained with the GRAVITY instrument on the European Southern Observatory Very Large Telescope Inter…

First direct detection of an exoplanet by optical interferometry; Astrometry and K-band spectroscopy of HR8799 e

S. Lacour, M. Nowak, J. Wang +85

To date, infrared interferometry at best achieved contrast ratios of a few times on bright targets. GRAVITY, with its dual-field mode, is now capable of high contrast obs…

The GRAVITY fringe tracker

S. Lacour, R. Dembet, R. Abuter +17

The GRAVITY instrument has been commissioned on the VLTI during 2016 and is now available to the astronomical community. It is the first optical interferometer capable of observing…

GRAVITY chromatic imaging of Eta Car's core

GRAVITY Collaboration, J. Sanchez-Bermudez, G. Weigelt +132

Eta Car is one of the most intriguing luminous blue variables in the Galaxy. Observations and models at different wavelengths suggest a central binary with a 5.54 yr period residin…

The wind and the magnetospheric accretion onto the T Tauri star S Coronae Australis at sub-au resolution

R. Garcia Lopez, K. Perraut, A. Caratti o Garatti +70

To investigate the inner regions of protoplanetary disks, we performed near-infrared interferometric observations of the classical TTauri binary system S CrA. We present the first…
