The SCIFY project focuses on developing a new instrument for the European Very Large Telescope Interferometer to study exoplanets. By utilizing advanced techniques in nulling interferometry and spectroscopy, it aims to enhance our understanding of the chemical composition of distant planets.
The spectral characterisation and understanding of terrestrial exoplanets is currently one of the most ambitious and challenging long-term goals of astrophysics.
All observing techniques with the potential to tackle this challenge face the same limitations: the overwhelmingly dominant flux of the host star and/or the lack of angular resolution. A very promising technical solution around these issues is nulling interferometry, which combines the advantages of stellar interferometry (high angular…
