Multi-Conjugate Adaptive Optics Simulator for the Thirty Meter Telescope: Design, Implementation, and Results
Etsuko Mieda, Jean-Pierre Veran, Matthias Rosensteiner +5
We present a multi-conjugate adaptive optics (MCAO) system simulator bench, HeNOS (Herzberg NFIRAOS Optical Simulator). HeNOS is developed to validate the performance of the MCAO s…
Gemini Infrared Multi-Object Spectrograph: Instrument Overview
Suresh Sivanandam, Scott Chapman, Luc Simard +27
The Gemini Infrared Multi-Object Spectrograph (GIRMOS) is a powerful new instrument being built to facility-class standards for the Gemini telescope. It takes advantage of the late…
The Gemini Planet Imager: Looking back over five years and forward to the future
Bruce Macintosh, Jeffrey K. Chilcote, Vanessa P. Bailey +10
The Gemini Planet Imager (GPI), a coronagraphic adaptive optics instrument designed for spectroscopy of extrasolar planets, had first light in 2013[13]. After five years, GPI has o…
Upgrading the Gemini Planet Imager: GPI 2.0
Jeffrey K. Chilcote, Vanessa P. Bailey, Rob De Rosa +10
The Gemini Planet Imager (GPI) is the dedicated high-contrast imaging facility, located on Gemini South, designed for the direct detection and characterization of young Jupiter mas…
Fast focal plane wavefront sensing on ground-based telescopes
Benjamin L. Gerard, Christian Marois, Raphaël Galicher +1
Exoplanet detection and characterization through extreme adaptive optics (ExAO) is a key science goal of future extremely large telescopes. This achievement, however, will be limit…
Off-axis point spread function characterisation in laser-guide star adaptive optics systems
O. Beltramo-Martin, C. M. Correia, E. Mieda +5
Adaptive optics (AO) restore the angular resolution of ground-based telescopes, but at the cost of delivering a time- and space-varying point spread function (PSF) with a complex s…
