Asgard/NOTT: L-band nulling interferometry at the VLTI[0.5em] IV. Prospects for characterising hot exozodiacal dust

Abstract Near-infrared interferometric surveys have revealed extended emission around the photosphere of ≈40 main-sequence stars, attributed to the presence of hot exozodiacal dust (HEZD). A promising technique for investigating this phenomenon is nulling interferometry. The VLTI...
