MIRAC-5 on the MMT with MAPS: annular groove phase mask N-band coronagraphic upgrade
Alyssa L. Miller, Jarron Leisenring, Michael Meyer +15
We describe the coronagraphic upgrade underway for the Mid-Infrared Array Camera-5 (MIRAC-5) to be used with the 6.5-m MMT telescope utilizing the new MMT Adaptive optics exoPlanet…
Commissioning of the MIRAC-5 Mid-Infrared Instrument on the MMT
Rory Bowens, Jarron Leisenring, Michael R. Meyer +11
We present results from commissioning observations of the mid-IR instrument, MIRAC-5, on the 6.5-m MMT telescope. MIRAC-5 is a novel ground-based instrument that utilizes a state-o…
Tuning the MAPS Adaptive Secondary Mirror: Actuator Control, PID Tuning, Power Spectra and Failure Diagnosis
Jess A. Johnson, Amali Vaz, Manny Montoya +17
The MMT Adaptive optics exoPlanet characterization System (MAPS) is currently in its engineering phase, operating on-sky at the MMT Telescope on Mt. Hopkins in southern Arizona. Th…
Design and Test of Small Mirror Supports for Harsh Environments
Ruby Huie, Austin Mears, Manny Montoya +4
As wavefront quality demands tighten on space systems for applications such as astronomy and laser communication, mounting small optics such that the wavefront is undisturbed, posi…
The MAPS Adaptive Secondary Mirror: First Light, Laboratory Work, and Achievements
Jess A. Johnson, Amali Vaz, Manny Montoya +23
The MMT Adaptive Optics exoPlanet Characterization System (MAPS) is a comprehensive update to the first generation MMT adaptive optics system (MMTAO), designed to produce a facilit…
Design and development of a high-speed Visible Pyramid Wavefront Sensor for the MMT AO system
Narsireddy Anugu, Olivier Durney, Katie M. Morzinski +16
MAPS, MMT Adaptive optics exoPlanet characterization System, is the upgrade of legacy 6.5m MMT adaptive optics system. It is an NSF MSIP-funded project that includes (i) refurbishi…
