First Light for GRAVITY: Phase Referencing Optical Interferometry for the Very Large Telescope Interferometer

R. Abuter, +131 more
TL;DR: GRAVITY as mentioned in this paper is a new instrument to coherently combine the light of the European Southern Observatory Very Large Telescope Interferometer to form a telescope with an equivalent 130 m diameter angular resolution and a collecting area of 200 m$^2$.

First light for GRAVITY: Phase referencing optical interferometry for the Very Large Telescope Interferometer

Roberto Abuter, +138 more
TL;DR: GRAVITY as discussed by the authors is a new instrument to coherently combine the light of the European Southern Observatory Very Large Telescope Interferometer to form a telescope with an equivalent 130 m diameter angular resolution and a collecting area of 200 m2.
Journal ArticleDOI

Frequency-comb-referenced two-wavelength source for absolute distance measurement

TL;DR: A new tunable laser source concept for multiple-wavelength interferometry is proposed, offering an unprecedented large choice of synthetic wavelengths with a relative uncertainty better than 10(-11) in vacuum, which opens the way to absolute distance measurement with nanometer accuracy.
Journal ArticleDOI

High-accuracy absolute distance measurement using frequency comb referenced multiwavelength source.

TL;DR: A new approach to multiple-wavelength interferometry, targeted to high bandwidth absolute distance measurement, with nanometer accuracy over long distances, is proposed, with an accuracy of 8 nm over 800 mm for target velocities up to 50 mm/s.
Journal ArticleDOI

First direct detection of an exoplanet by optical interferometry. Astrometry and K-band spectroscopy of HR 8799 e

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used the GRAVITY fringe tracker to lock the fringes on the central star, and integrated off-axis on the HR 8799 e planet situated at 390 mas from the star.
