The MICADO first light imager for the ELT: first on-bench performance tests of the SCAO hybrid LQG+Integrator controller

N. Levraud, F. Ferreira, A. Sevin +6

The Extremely Large Telecope (ELT) is expected to begin scientific operations in 2030, with MICADO as its first-light imager. The Single Conjugate Adaptive Optics (SCAO) system for…

The MICADO first light imager for the ELT: the SCAO module AIT in France, from the beta flat configuration towards the flat and final configurations

Yann Clénet, Vincent Lapeyrère, Eric Gendron +45

MICADO is the designated ELT first light instrument, a near-infrared imager working at the diffraction limit of the telescope thanks to a SCAO and an MCAO mode. Since summer 2024,…

The MICADO first light imager for the ELT: off-axis performance of PSF reconstruction

Matteo Simioni, Daniel Jodlbauer, Carmelo Arcidiacono +14

The highest scientific return, for adaptive optics (AO) observations, is achieved with a reliable reconstruction of the PSF. This is especially true for MICADO@ELT. In this present…

PCS -- A Roadmap for Exoearth Imaging with the ELT

Markus Kasper, Nelly Cerpa Urra, Prashant Pathak +22

The Planetary Camera and Spectrograph (PCS) for the Extremely Large Telescope (ELT) will be dedicated to detecting and characterising nearby exoplanets with sizes from sub-Neptune…

Diffraction-limited integral-field spectroscopy for extreme adaptive optics systems with the Multi-Core fiber-fed Integral-Field Unit

Sebastiaan Y. Haffert, Robert J. Harris, Alessio Zanutta +31

Direct imaging instruments have the spatial resolution to resolve exoplanets from their host star. This enables direct characterization of the exoplanets atmosphere, but most direc…
