Deep near-infrared interferometric search for low-mass companions around<i>β</i> Pictoris
<i>Aims. <i/>We search for low-mass companions in the innermost region (<300 mas, i.e., 6 AU) of the <i>β<i/> Pic planetary system.<i>Methods. <i/>We obtained interferometric closure phase measurements in the <i>K<i/>-band with the VLTI/AMBER instrument used in its medium spectral resolution mode. Fringe stabilization was provided by the FINITO fringe tracker.<i>Results. …
