Fig. 1.— Continuum subtracted velocity channel maps of the Z CMa [FeII] 1.257 µm jet emission with the dashed lines delinating the PA of the jet structures. Contour levels start at 1%-2% of the maximum and increase by factors of √2. The emission below S/N = 3 is

masked. Jet A (PA 245◦) is revealed, the origin of which is the Herbig Be star (H). This jet ∼ shows signs of possible precession (also see Figures 2 and 3) which explains why the chosen PA does not correspond exactly to the jet axis (on the smallest scales). A lower velocity jet,

Jet B at a PA of 235◦ is also seen. This jet extends to 0￿￿.4 and is clearly driven by the ∼ ∼ FUOR (F). Note the position of knot K1 and the lower velocity emission associated with both jets. Panel (f) is a channel map extracted from a SINFONI observation obtained in December 2008. Due to the smaller pixel scale and shorter integration time only Jet B was detected. It is included here as it confirms that the FUOR is the driver of Jet B. K1 is also detected in the SINFONI data. MULTIPLE SYSTEMS

• A major leap in less than 10 years: – ~100 objects observed so far,

– +70 refereed papers (mainly with one baseline broad- band observations, but it is changing).

– new types of observations with spectral resolution, closure phases, imaging • Observations are mature enough to allow detailed modeling.

VLTI Summer school 2010 - Inner regions of YSOs revealedThiébaut by interferometry et al. (2005, - F. Ap&SS,Malbet 286, 171) Open issues

• Disks starts to be imaged: shifts from axial symmetry?

• NIR emitting zone larger than corotation / magnetospheric radii . What implications for disk/star connection?

• Which implications do these measurements have for the initial conditions of planetary formation?

• Need to combine NIR+MIR to secure the disk structure.

• Origin of the Br$ emission ?

• Companions, formation of planets
