Science with MATISSE

Abstract

MATISSE is the mid-infrared second generation instrument of the VLTI. By sounding both the 3-5 microns and the 8-13 microns wavelength regions, MATISSE is sensitive to the gaz and dust in the vicinity of astrophysical objects. It is therefore possible to colocate the presence of gaz and dust and to better understand the link between the central sources and their environments. We will present in this talk the results of the science program of the MATISSE consortium, especially on the major science cases : stars, active galactic nucleai and, planet forming regions.
