abstract = "New frontiers of astronomical science push the imaging capabilities of modern AO-equipped telescopes. However, precision measurement at the diffraction limit is made challenging by time-varying residual aberrations in AO-corrected wavefronts. Photonic lanterns (PLs) are a novel technology whose spatial filtering and coherence properties may be exploited to enable new capabilities in precision measurement at the diffraction limit. We aim to determine the potential of AO-fed PL fiber spectrometers for spectroastrometry. We define spectroastrometric signals for a 6-port PL and perform numerical simulations to calculate expected signals for a binary point source model, as a function of contrast, separation, and position angle. In addition, we simulate the effects of AO residual wavefront error on spectroastrometric signals. We also present simulated spectroastrometric signals for accreting planets, which are expected to show strong hydrogen emission lines.",
