On-sky demonstration of second-stage wavefront control with a photonic lantern
Aditya R. Sengupta, Jordan Diaz, Matthew DeMartino +14
Ground-based direct imaging of exoplanets at high contrast requires precise correction of atmospheric turbulence using adaptive optics (AO). The planet-to-star contrast ratio at sm…
The Santa Cruz Extreme AO Lab (SEAL) 2.0: A reflective, multi-wavelength rebuild
Rebecca Jensen-Clem, Vincent Chambouleyron, Prince Javier +20
The Santa cruz Extreme Adaptive optics Lab (SEAL) is a visible/near-infrared wavelength testbed designed to support technology development for high contrast imaging on large, segme…
Exploring the Capabilities of Astrophotonics for the Precise Alignment of Segmented Telescopes
Maria Cuevas, Aditya R. Sengupta, Vincent Chambouleyron +9
The next generation of large telescopes for direct imaging of exoplanets will require segmented primary mirrors. Over both long and short timescales, these telescopes experience se…
Experimental validation of photonic lantern imaging and wavefront sensing performance
Aditya R. Sengupta, Vincent Chambouleyron, Jordan Diaz +15
Photonic lanterns (PLs) are fiber-based waveguides that are capable of focal-plane wavefront sensing while simultaneously directing light to downstream science instruments. The opt…
Developments on LLNL's high contrast testbed and Lick/ShaneAO
Benjamin L. Gerard, Dominic F. Sanchez, Aditya R. Sengupta +15
LLNL has recently setup a High Contrast Testbed (HCT) for AO and exoplanet imaging technology development. We present the various HCT technologies currently under development, incl…
