Wavefront tolerances of space-based segmented telescopes at very high contrast: Experimental validation
Iva Laginja, Jean-François Sauvage, Laurent M. Mugnier +8
Context: The detection and characterization of Earth-like exoplanets (exoEarths) from space requires exquisite wavefront stability at contrast levels of . On segmented te…
Experimental validation of active control of low-order aberrations with a Zernike sensor through a Lyot coronagraph
Raphaël Pourcelot, Mamadou N'Diaye, Emiel H. Por +11
Future large segmented space telescopes and their coronagraphic instruments are expected to provide the resolution and sensitivity to observe Earth-like planets with a 10^10 contra…
Dark zone maintenance results for segmented aperture wavefront error drift in a high contrast space coronagraph
Susan F. Redmond, Laurent Pueyo, Leonid Pogorelyuk +8
Due to the limited number of photons, directly imaging planets requires long integration times with a coronagraphic instrument. The wavefront must be stable on the same time scale,…
Implementation of a broadband focal plane estimator for high-contrast dark zones
Susan F. Redmond, Laurent Pueyo, Leonid Pogorelyuk +6
The characterization of exoplanet atmospheres using direct imaging spectroscopy requires high-contrast over a wide wavelength range. We study a recently proposed focal plane wavefr…
