VLT/NACO adaptive optics imaging of GSS30 IRS1: a protostellar binary system?

CHEN X.P., LAUNHARDT R. and HENNING T.

Abstract (from CDS):

We present high-resolution near-infrared images of the low-mass Class I young stellar object GSS30 IRS1. The data were retrieved from the ESO archive and acquired in the HKsL'-bands with the adaptive optics system NACO at the ESO Very Large Telescope. We discover two separate components in GSS30 IRS1. The angular separation between the two components is ∼0.15", corresponding to a projected linear separation of 24AU at a distance of 160pc. The brightness contrasts between the two components are ∼1.4mag at H band, 1.5mag at Ks band, and 2.1mag at L' band. The two components detected in GSS30 IRS1 could represent two scattered light structures related to an outflow-disk complex or two young stellar objects embedded in a common disk. Here we discuss these two possibilities, as well as the CO ro-vibrational emission from GSS30 IRS1.
