ADAPTIVE OPTICS IMAGING OF VY CANIS MAJORIS AT 2-5 μm WITH LBT/LMIRCam

We present adaptive optics images of the extreme red supergiant VY Canis Majoris in the K sub(s), L', and M bands (2.15-4.8 mu m) made with LMIRCam on the Large Binocular Telescope. The peculiar "Southwest Clump" previously imaged from 1 to 2.2 mu m appears prominently in all three fi...
