Abstract

We propose a science demonstration experiment for antarctic stellar interferometry, dedicated to the goal of obtaining the first low-resolution spectra in the thermal infrared of a few “hot Jupiter” type exoplanets. It would provide a unique platform to acquire operational experience, and build up an extensive database on the relevant site properties at Dome C, as a preparation for a more ambitious facility.
