Abstract

Near-infrared interferometry gives us the opportunity to spatially resolve the circumstellar environment of young stars at sub-astronomical-unit (au) scales, which a standalone telescope could not reach. In particular, the sensitivity of GRAVITY on the VLTI allows us to spatially resolve the CO overtone emission at 2.3 microns. In this article, we present a new method of using the model of the CO spectrum to reconstruct the differential phase signal and extract the geometry and size of the emitting region.
