Planet formation with all flavors of adaptive optics: VLT/MUSE’s laser tomography adaptive optics to directly image young accreting exoplanets
Published: Dec 16, 2020
Abstract
We present recent results obtained with the VLT/MUSE Integral Field Spectrograph fed by the 4LGSF and its laser tomography adaptive optics module GALACSI. While this so-called narrow-field mode of MUSE was not designed to perform directly imaging of exoplanets and outflows, we show that it can be a game changer to detect and characterize young exoplanets with a prominent emission lines (i.e Hα, tracer of accretion), at moderate contrasts....
