    • Petrucci, P. O.; Waisberg, I.; Le Bouquin, J. B.; Kervella, P. (EDP Sciences, 2017)
      We present the first optical observation of the microquasar SS 433 at sub-milliarcsecond (mas) scale obtained with the GRAVITY instrument on the Very Large Telescope interferometer (VLTI). The 3.5-h exposure reveals a rich ...
    • Min, M.; Stolker, T.; Dominik, C.; Benisty, Myriam (EDP Sciences, 2017)
      Aims. Shadows in transitional disks are generally interpreted as signs of a misaligned inner disk. This disk is usually beyond the reach of current day high contrast imaging facilities. However, the location and morphology ...
    • Guirado, J. C.; Azulay, R.; Gauza, B.; Pérez Torres, M. A.; Rebolo, R.; Climent, J. B.; Zapatero Osorio, M. R. (EDP Sciences, 2018)
      Aims. With the purpose of investigating the radio emission of new ultracool objects, we carried out a targeted search in the recently discovered system VHS J125601.92-125723.9 (hereafter VHS 1256-1257); this system is ...
    • Waisberg, I.; Dexter, J.; Pfuhl, O.; Kervella, P. (IOP Publishing Ltd, 2017)
      We observe the high-mass X-ray binary (HMXB) BP Cru using interferometry in the near-infrared K band with VLTI/GRAVITY. Continuum visibilities are at most partially resolved, consistent with the predicted size of the ...
    • Montarges, M.; Chiavassa, A.; Kervella, P.; Ridgway, S. T.; Perrin, G.; Le Bouquin, J. B.; Lacour, S. (EDP Sciences, 2017)
      Context. Convection is a candidate to explain the trigger of red supergiant star (RSG) mass loss. Owing to the small size of the convective cells on the photosphere, few of the characteristics of RSGs are known. Aims. ...
    • Stolker, Tomas; Sitko, Mike; Lazareff, Bernard; Benisty, Myriam; Dominik, Carsten; Waters, Rens; Min, Michiel; Pérez, Sebastian; Milli, Julien; Garufi, Antonio; de Boer, Jozua; Ginski, Christian; Kraus, Stefan; Berger, Jean-Philippe; Avenhaus, Henning (IOP Publishing Ltd, 2017)
      We present multi-epoch Very Large Telescope/Spectro-Polarimetric High-contrast Exoplanet REsearch (VLT/SPHERE) observations of the protoplanetary disk around HD. 135344B (SAO 206462). The J-band scattered light imagery ...
