First high-contrast results on THD2 testbed after infrastructure upgrade
Iva Laginja, Pierre Baudoz, Rémi Soummer +17
We present the first scientific results delivered by the upgraded THD2 high-contrast imaging testbed. We report two advances enabled by its improved stability and broadband perform…
SUPPPPRESS: Prototyping and testing liquid-crystal vector vortex coronagraphs with reduced polarization leakage
Rico Landman, David Doelman, Jeroen Rietjens +16
The vortex coronagraph is one of the most promising candidates for the Habitable Worlds Observatory (HWO) due to its excellent theoretical performance for an off-axis telescope. A…
Prototyping liquid-crystal coronagraphs for exo-Earth imaging
Iva Laginja, David Doelman, Frans Snik +12
This paper presents initial results from the ESA-funded ``SUPPPPRESS'' project, which aims to develop high-performance liquid-crystal coronagraphs for direct imaging of Earth-like…
Integrated photonic-based coronagraphic systems for future space telescopes
Niyati Desai, Lorenzo König, Emiel Por +38
The detection and characterization of Earth-like exoplanets around Sun-like stars is a primary science motivation for the Habitable Worlds Observatory. However, the current best te…
Visible extreme adaptive optics on extremely large telescopes: Towards detecting oxygen in Proxima Centauri b and analogs
J. Fowler, Sebastiaan Y. Haffert, Maaike A. M. van Kooten +38
Looking to the future of exo-Earth imaging from the ground, core technology developments are required in visible extreme adaptive optics (ExAO) to enable the observation of atmosph…
Chasing rainbows and ocean glints: Inner working angle constraints for the Habitable Worlds Observatory
Sophia R. Vaughan, Timothy D. Gebhard, Kimberly Bott +41
NASA is engaged in planning for a Habitable Worlds Observatory (HabWorlds), a coronagraphic space mission to detect rocky planets in habitable zones and establish their habitabilit…
Design of the Life Signature Detection Polarimeter LSDpol
Christoph U. Keller, Frans Snik, C. H. Lucas Patty +11
Many biologically produced chiral molecules such as amino acids and sugars show a preference for left or right handedness (homochirality). Light reflected by biological materials s…
The implementation of a Fast-Folding pipeline for long-period pulsar searching in the PALFA survey
E. Parent, V. M. Kaspi, S. M. Ransom +31
The Pulsar Arecibo L-Band Feed Array (PALFA) survey, the most sensitive blind search for radio pulsars yet conducted, is ongoing at the Arecibo Observatory in Puerto Rico. The vast…
