A parameter scan of dark zone maintenance for high-contrast imaging of exoplanets using theoretical and experimental implementations
Saikrishna Manojkumar, Christine L. Page, Leonid Pogorelyuk +14
Maintaining wavefront stability while directly imaging exoplanets over long exposure times is an ongoing problem in the field of high-contrast imaging. Robust and efficient high-or…

Optical modeling for the evaluation of HOWFSC on embedded processors
Kian Milani, Ewan Douglas, Leonid Pogorelyuk +5
The correction of quasi-static wavefront errors within a coronagraphic optical system will be a key challenge to overcome in order to directly image exoplanets in reflected light.…
