Estimating low-order aberrations through a Lyot coronagraph with a Zernike wavefront sensor for exoplanet imaging

Raphaël Pourcelot, Mamadou N'Diaye, Greg Brady +13

Imaging exo-Earths is an exciting but challenging task because of the 10^-10 contrast ratio between these planets and their host star at separations narrower than 100 mas. Large se…

MOSAIC: the high-multiplex and multi-IFU spectrograph for the ELT

Rubén Sánchez-Janssen, Francois Hammer, Simon Morris +40

MOSAIC is the planned multi-object spectrograph for the 39m Extremely Large Telescope (ELT). Conceived as a multi-purpose instrument, it offers both high multiplex and multi-IFU ca…

Characterisation of a turbulent module for the MITHIC high-contrast imaging testbed

A. Vigan, M. Postnikova, A. Caillat +6

Future high-contrast imagers on ground-based extremely large telescopes will have to deal with the segmentation of the primary mirrors. Residual phase errors coming from the phase…

Direct characterization of young giant exoplanets at high spectral resolution by coupling SPHERE and CRIRES+

G. P. P. L. Otten, A. Vigan, E. Muslimov +19

Studies of atmospheres of directly imaged exoplanets with high-resolution spectrographs have shown that their characterization is predominantly limited by noise on the stellar halo…

The SPHERE infrared survey for exoplanets (SHINE). III. The demographics of young giant exoplanets below 300 au with SPHERE

A. Vigan, C. Fontanive, M. Meyer +108

The SHINE project is a 500-star survey performed with SPHERE on the VLT for the purpose of directly detecting new substellar companions and understanding their formation and early…

K-Stacker, an algorithm to hack the orbital parameters of planets hidden in high-contrast imaging. First applications to VLT SPHERE multi-epoch observations

H. Le Coroller, M. Nowak, P. Delorme +40

Recent high-contrast imaging surveys, looking for planets in young, nearby systems showed evidence of a small number of giant planets at relatively large separation beyond typicall…
