Upgrading LBTI/NOMIC with a quadruple annular groove phase mask and GeoSnap detector for imaging nearby, habitable-zone exoplanets

Kevin Wagner, Manny Montoya, Steve Ertel +32

The Large Binocular Telescope Interferometer (LBTI)'s Nulling-Optimized Mid-Infrared Camera (NOMIC) is among the most capable thermal-infrared imaging systems available for high-co…

The beta Pictoris system: Setting constraints on the planet and the disk structures at mid-IR wavelengths with NEAR

Nour Skaf, Anthony Boccaletti, Eric Pantin +26

[abridged] We analyzed mid-infrared high-contrast coronagraphic images of the beta Pictoris system, taking advantage of the NEAR experiment using the VLT/VISIR instrument. The goal…

Comparing Apples with Apples: Robust Detection Limits for Exoplanet High-Contrast Imaging in the Presence of non-Gaussian Noise

Markus J. Bonse, Emily O. Garvin, Timothy D. Gebhard +8

Over the past decade, hundreds of nights have been spent on the worlds largest telescopes to search for and directly detect new exoplanets using high-contrast imaging (HCI). Thereb…

Cascade adaptive optics: contrast performance analysis of a two-stage controller by numerical simulations

Nelly Cerpa-Urra, Markus Kasper, Caroline Kulcsár +2

The contrast performance of current eXtreme Adaptive Optics (XAO) systems can be improved by adding a second AO correction stage featuring its own wavefront sensor, deformable mirr…
