Current laboratory performance of starlight suppression systems, and potential pathways to desired Habitable Worlds Observatory exoplanet science capabilities
Bertrand Mennesson, Ruslan Belikov, Emiel Por +34
We summarize the current best polychromatic (10 to 20 % bandwidth) contrast performance demonstrated in the laboratory by different starlight suppression approaches and systems des…
Probing Photon Statistics in Adaptive Optics Images with SCExAO/MEC
Sarah Steiger, Timothy D. Brandt, Olivier Guyon +11
We present an experimental study of photon statistics for high-contrast imaging with the Microwave Kinetic Inductance Detector (MKID) Exoplanet Camera (MEC) located behind the Suba…
SCExAO and Keck Direct Imaging Discovery of a Low-Mass Companion Around the Accelerating F5 Star HIP 5319
Noah Swimmer, Thayne Currie, Sarah Steiger +26
We present the direct imaging discovery of a low-mass companion to the nearby accelerating F star, HIP 5319, using SCExAO coupled with the CHARIS, VAMPIRES, and MEC instruments in…
The MKID Science Data Pipeline
Sarah Steiger, John I. Bailey, Nicholas Zobrist +4
We present The MKID Pipeline, a general use science data pipeline for the reduction and analysis of ultraviolet, optical and infrared (UVOIR) Microwave Kinetic Inductance Detector…
SCExAO/MEC and CHARIS Discovery of a Low Mass, 6 AU-Separation Companion to HIP 109427 using Stochastic Speckle Discrimination and High-Contrast Spectroscopy
Sarah Steiger, Thayne Currie, Timothy D. Brandt +28
We report the direct imaging discovery of a low-mass companion to the nearby accelerating A star, HIP 109427, with the Subaru Coronagraphic Extreme Adaptive Optics (SCExAO) instrum…
Improving the dynamic range of single photon counting kinetic inductance detectors
Nicholas Zobrist, Nikita Klimovich, Byeong Ho Eom +8
We develop a simple coordinate transformation which can be employed to compensate for the nonlinearity introduced by a Microwave Kinetic Inductance Detector's (MKID) homodyne reado…
