1) Early Star-forming Galaxies and Cosmic Reionization in the Era of JWST

Hakim Atek - Institut d'astrophysique de Paris (Astronome-Adjoint)

Invited Talk

Strong scientific synergies are foreseen between the James Webb Space Telescope and the Extremely Large Telescope in peering into the epoch of first light and reionization. I will discuss the complementary aspects between the JWST and ELT in imaging and multi-object spectroscopy capabilities. A particular focus will be given to the extragalactic science cases that will be addressed by NIRSpec and NIRCam instruments, including physical properties of early star-forming galaxies and the evolution of the …

2) Imagerie des systèmes exoplanétaires avec SPHERE+ et MIRI, précurseurs des instruments ELT

Anthony Boccaletti - LESIA, Observatoire de Paris (Professor)

Invited Talk

Les techniques d’imagerie à très haut contraste, dédiées à l’imagerie des systèmes exoplanétaires, ont connu une avancée significative avec l’avènement des optiques adaptatives extrêmes et des concepts coronographiques. Au niveau européen, l’instrument SPHERE sur le VLT est la concrétisation de cette thématique au sol. SPHERE a permis d’étudier de nombreux systèmes planétaires que ce soit au niveau des planètes géantes jeunes ou de leur environnement. Les performances de SPHERE seront illustrées sur quelques cas particuliers …

10) Kernel-phase analysis applied to exoplanet detection

Roxanne Ligi - Observatoire de la Côte d'Azur (Post-doctorate)

Talk

Direct methods to detect exoplanets generally do not overlap with indirect methods. It is thus difficult to obtain a full set of exoplanetary parameters that would provide sufficient information to characterize exolpanets, and to have a complete view of exoplanets population.

The Kernel data analysis method is a generalisation of the closure phase in the interferometric context. It creates observables robust against residual aberrations, which theoretically allows to detect exoplanets below the diffraction limit. Using …

11) Submilliarcsecond astrometry of exoplanets and brown dwarfs in high-contrast imaging

Anne-Lise Maire - University of Liège (Postdoc)

Talk

Orbital monitoring of exoplanetary systems is fundamental for analyzing their architecture, dynamical stability and evolution, and mechanisms of formation. For directly-imaged exoplanets and brown dwarfs, high-precision relative astrometry is mandatory to measure precisely their slow orbital motion due to the wide separations to the stars (>~10 au) and their orbital parameters. Relative astrometry at the milliarcsecond level has been achieved with the first dedicated coronagraphic instruments on 8m telescopes (SPHERE, GPI) thanks to the high …

12) HARMONI: The ELT first light IFS

Benoit Neichel - Laboratoire d'Astrophysique de Marseille (Scientist)

Invited Talk

In few years from today, the largest optical telescope ever built will start exploring the Universe. This giant of 39m diameter - the European Extremely Large Telescope (ELT) - will address fundamental astrophysical science cases as for instance the direct imaging and characterization of exo-worlds or the study of bulk and evolution of the first galaxies. To fully exploit the scientific potential of the ELT, it will be equipped with a suit of instruments, amongst …

Invited Talk

I will present METIS, the E-ELT thermal infrared (L to N band) imager and spectrometer. I will describe its modes and their expected performances. Some of these performances will be compared to that of the JWST space observatory that observes at the same wavelengths, highlighting the complementarity of the two.

Thibaut Paumard - LESIA - CNRS/Paris Observatory-PSL (Researcher)

Invited Talk

GRAVITY and the VLTI have transformed optical interferometry with groundbreaking results on the Galactic Center (see Nobel prize in Physics 2020), active galactic nuclei, and exoplanets. Through its upgrades (off-axis fringe-tracking, extreme adaptive optics (AO) and laser guide stars for the 4 UTs), GRAVITY+ will open up the extragalactic sky for milli-arcsec resolution interferometric imaging, and give access to targets as faint as K = 22 mag. GRAVITY+ will measure the black hole masses of …

18) Détection directe des exoplanètes: synergies entre l'ELT et le télescope spatial Roman

Arthur Vigan - Laboratoire d'Astrophysique de Marseille / CNRS (Senior scientist)

Invited Talk

L'imagerie directe tient une place particulière pour l'étude des systèmes exoplanétaires puisqu'elle permet de mesurer la lumière émise ou réfléchis par ces objets et donc d'avoir une information cruciale sur leur composition. La mise sur le ciel d'instruments dédiés à l'imagerie directe des exoplanètes au cours de la dernière décennie a permis la découverte d'un petit nombre de nouveaux compagnons planétaires jeunes. Cependant, le faible nombre de détections a surtout mis en lumière la nécessité …

Marta Volonteri - IAP (Senior scientist)

Invited Talk

LISA is a low-frequency gravitational wave experiment, which will have the ability to detect merging massive black holes with masses in the range 1e4-1e7 solar masses. Some of these events are expected to have an electromagnetic counterpart, and multi-messenger observations can inform us on the physical conditions when and where  massive black hole merge: the relative role of gas and stars in the dynamical evolution of binaries, constraining accretion physics -- and how that differs …
