Scientific paper

ESO'S VLTI is the first interferometer offered to the community of astronomers world-wide in service mode. Taking advantage of the presence of distinguished visiting interferometrists and members of the VLTI team at ESO Vitacura, a one-day micro-workshop was organized to introduce more ESO and Chilean astronomers and students to this observing mode and to make them consider the role the VLTI could play in their research. After introductory talks on interferometry, data reduction, and calibration, some outstanding recent results from VLTI/VINCI and other interferometers were presented, demonstrating impressively how optical interferometry has already contributed to advances in some fields of astrophysics, e.g. in testing stellar evolution theory.
