SINFONI is an adaptive optics assisted near-infrared integral field spectrometer for the ESO VLT. The Adaptive Optics Module (built by the ESO Adaptive Optics Group) is a 60-elements curvature-sensor based system, designed for operations with natural or sodium laser guide stars. The near-infrared integral field spectrometer SPIFFI (built by the Infrared Group of MPE) provides simultaneous spectroscopy of 32 x 32 spatial pixels, and a spectral resolving power of up to 3300. The adaptive optics module is in the phase of integration; the spectrometer is presently tested in the laboratory. We provide an overview of the project, with particular emphasis on the problems encountered in designing and building an adaptive optics assisted spectrometer.

  1. BlackTHUNDER Reveals a Massive Filament around a Compact AGN at $z\simeq5.23$

    astro-ph.GA 2026-07 conditional novelty 6.5 of 10

    GN-77652, a compact broad-line AGN at z=5.229, lies beside a 12 kpc multi-source filament at the same redshift whose coalescence will erase the compact AGN appearance within ~150–440 Myr.

  2. Tidal pre-conditioning and ram-pressure stripping in NGC 1427A. Deep VLT/MUSE spectroscopy and FUV-to-radio observations trace a Fornax Cluster dwarf in transformation

    astro-ph.GA 2026-05 unverdicted novelty 6.0 of 10

    NGC 1427A exhibits ram-pressure stripping that has reached its ISM after tidal torquing by a nearby dwarf, marking the onset of cluster-driven gas loss and declining star formation.

  3. The Impact of Non-Gaussian Line Spread Functions on Stellar Kinematic Recovery: Consequences for Dynamical Models

    astro-ph.GA 2026-06 unverdicted novelty 5.0 of 10

    Non-Gaussian LSF shapes bias kinematic extraction from spectra; matching the LSF of templates to the target reduces dispersion bias below 1%.

  4. MSA-3D: Rotation Curves and Dark Matter Fractions at z~0.5-1.7 with JWST/NIRSpec

    astro-ph.GA 2026-06 unverdicted novelty 5.0 of 10

    New JWST data on 23 galaxies at 0.5<z<1.7 show median dark matter fraction of 0.63 at effective radius with 0.2 dex scatter, and a mix of rising, flat, and falling rotation curves.

  5. Operational capabilities and on-sky performance of SAMOS at the completion of science commissioning

    astro-ph.IM 2026-06 unverdicted novelty 4.0 of 10

    SAMOS demonstrates reliable target acquisition, programmable multi-object spectroscopy at R~2500 and R~10000, and 0.3 Å calibration accuracy after on-sky commissioning at SOAR.
