Commissioning the LBTI for use as a nulling interferometer and coherent imager

Proceedings of SPIE, 2014
The Large Binocular Telescope Interferometer (LBTI) is a strategically important instrument for exploiting the use of the LBT as a 22.7 m telescope. The LBTI has two science cameras (covering the 1.5-5 μm and 8-13 μm atmospheric windows), and a number of observing modes that allow it to carry out a wide range of high-spatial resolution observations ...

Design considerations for LBTI observer interface

Proceedings of SPIE, 2010
We outline the design considerations and principles for developing a graphical user interface for configuring and operating Large Binocular Telescope Interferometer (LBTI) on sky, and examine the "weblication" methodology to deliver this astronomical software over the web.

Improved Constraints on the Disk around MWC 349A from the 23 m LBTI [PDF]

open access: yesAstrophysical Journal, 2017
Abstract We present new spatially resolved observations of MWC 349A from the Large Binocular Telescope Interferometer (LBTI), a 23 m baseline interferometer made up of two, co-mounted 8 m telescopes. MWC 349A is a B[e] star with an unknown evolutionary state.

The LBTI Fizeau imager – II. Sensitivity of the PSF and the MTF to adaptive optics errors and to piston errors [PDF]

open access: yesMonthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2017
We show numerical simulations with monochromatic light in the visible for the LBTI Fizeau imager, including opto-dynamical aberrations due here to adaptive optics (AO) errors and to differential piston fluctuations, while other errors have been neglected.

Making high-accuracy null depth measurements for the LBTI exozodi survey [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of SPIE, 2016
The characterization of exozodiacal light emission is both important for the understanding of planetary systems evolution and for the preparation of future space missions aiming to characterize low mass planets in the habitable zone of nearby main sequence stars. The Large Binocular Telescope Interferometer (LBTI) exozodi survey aims at providing a ten-

Overview and prospects of the LBTI beyond the completed HOSTS survey

Optical and Infrared Interferometry and Imaging VII, 2020
The Large Binocular Telescope Interferometer (LBTI) combines the light from the two 8.4 m primary mirrors of the LBT for interferometry and adaptive optics (AO) imaging. With two high performance, state-of-the-art AO systems and adaptive secondary mirrors, a cryogenic instrument, and an edge-to-edge baseline of 23 m, the LBTI is a unique instrument ...

Detection of Debris Disks and Wide Orbit Planets with the LBTI

AIP Conference Proceedings, 2009
The Large Binocular Telescope Interferometer (LBTI) is designed to probe nearby stars for dust disks, indicative of planetesimal belts, as well as giant planets in wide orbits (>3 AU). The instrument provides a unique combination of resolution and sensitivity in the thermal infrared to achieve these objectives.

Characterization of synthetic reconstructors for the pyramid wavefront sensor unit of LBTI

Proceedings of SPIE, 2010
We present progress and results for the pyramid wavefront sensor unit on the Large Binocular Telescope's Interferometer (LBTI). The system is a clone of the pyramid sensor unit developed at Arcetri Observatory for the LUCIFER instrument. We discuss the performance of simulated reconstructors during preliminary on-sky testing at the MMT.
