After decades of fast-paced technical advances, optical/infrared (O/IR) interferometry has
seen a revolution in recent years:▪ The GRAVITY instrument at the Very Large Telescope …

Context. One of the long-term goals of exoplanet science is the atmospheric characterization
of dozens of small exoplanets in order to understand their diversity and search for habitable …

The search for life in the Universe is a fundamental problem of astrobiology and modern
science. The current progress in the detection of terrestrial-type exoplanets has opened a …

Characterisation of exoplanets is key to understanding their formation, composition and
potential for life. Nulling interferometry, combined with extreme adaptive optics, is among the …

The characterization of exoplanets is critical to understanding planet diversity and formation,
their atmospheric composition, and the potential for life. This endeavour is greatly enhanced …

Astrophotonics represents a cutting-edge approach in observational astronomy. This paper
explores the significant advancements and potential applications of astrophotonics …

Forty-seven nearby main-sequence stars were surveyed with the Keck Interferometer mid-
infrared Nulling instrument (KIN) between 2008 and 2011, searching for faint resolved …

We present the first characterisation of the 12 μm warm dust ('exo-Zodi') luminosity function
around Sun-like stars, focusing on the dustiest systems that can be identified by the WISE …

One of the long-term goals of exoplanet science is the (atmospheric) characterization of a
large sample (> 100) of terrestrial planets to assess their potential habitability and overall …

ABSTRACT The Large Binocular Telescope Interferometer (LBTI) is a versatile instrument
designed for high angular resolution and high-contrast infrared imaging (1.5–13 μm). In this …
