a) ISAAC Ks (2.16 μm) image of TMR-1 and its surroundings. The total integration time in this image is 20 min and the image size is approximately 2.4′ × 2.4′; b) zoom-in on the Ks-image of TMR-1 clearly showing the candidate very low-mass object TMR-1C at the end of the filament structure arising from the nebulosity around the binary TMR-1AB, and our detection of a “counter-object”, TMR-1D. Image size is approximately 40′′ × 40′′; c) H-band image of the same field as shown in b); d) L′-band image of TMR-1, at the same scale and orientation as the fields shown in b) and c).
