... We explore the structures immediately surrounding the intermediate-mass young stellar object R Mon with bispec- trum speckle interferometry, conventional near-infrared imaging and by analyzing optical HST archive data. Our near-infrared speckle images with unprecedented diffraction-limited resolution of 55 mas (44 AU; H -band) and 76 mas (61 AU; K -band) represent the highest resolution R Mon images obtained so far and exhibit previously unseen complex structures. ... The features 1­5 are marked. ...
