Commissioning and on-sky performance verification of iLocater
Marshall C. Johnson, Marcelo Tala Pinto, Jonathan Crass +59
iLocater is a high-resolution near-infrared extreme precision radial velocity (EPRV) spectrograph that was deployed to the Large Binocular Telescope (LBT) in June 2026. iLocater op…
Phase Retrieval using Nonlinear Curvature Sensing within Convergent Beams
Justin R. Crepp, Caleb G. Abbott, James Smous +2
Path-length diversity methods may be used for adaptive optics (AO) systems to retrieve phase and amplitude information by measuring intensity across multiple planes. Observations t…
Resolving the Young 2 Cygni Run-away Star into a Binary using iLocater
Justin R. Crepp, Jonathan Crass, Andrew J. Bechter +30
Precision radial velocity (RV) spectrographs that use adaptive optics (AO) show promise to advance telescope observing capabilities beyond those of seeing-limited designs. We are b…
Performance of the Nonlinear Curvature Wavefront Sensor as a Function of Scintillation Strength
Stanimir Letchev, Justin R. Crepp, Caleb G. Abbott +3
Local amplitude aberrations caused by scintillation can impact the reconstruction process of a wavefront sensor (WFS) by inducing a spatially non-uniform intensity at the pupil pla…
The iLocater cryostat and thermal control system: enabling extremely precise radial velocity measurements for diffraction-limited spectrographs
Jonathan Crass, Nandini Sadagopan, Matthew Misch +10
Extremely precise radial velocity (EPRV) measurements are critical for characterizing nearby terrestrial worlds. EPRV instrument precisions of $σ_{\mathrm{RV}} = 1-10\,\mathrm{cm/s…
Final Design and On-Sky Testing of the iLocater SX Acquisition Camera: Broadband Single-Mode Fiber Coupling
Jonathan Crass, Andrew Bechter, Brian Sands +22
Enabling efficient injection of light into single-mode fibers (SMFs) is a key requirement in realizing diffraction-limited astronomical spectroscopy on ground-based telescopes. SMF…
