Closed-loop Atmospheric Dispersion Correction for High-Contrast Imaging with MagAO-X

Katie Twitchell, Sebastiaan Haffert, Jared R. Males +17

Incoming starlight is refracted as it enters Earth's atmosphere from the vacuum of space. The wavelength-dependence of atmospheric refraction causes elongation of the broadband PSF…

windsoCC: reconstructing the wind-driven halo in MagAO-X images using wavefront sensor telemetry

Jay K. Kueny, Jared R. Males, Alycia J. Weinberger +16

The wind-driven halo (WDH) is a persistent, low spatial frequency noise artifact that arises due to the servo-lag error inherent to all adaptive optics (AO) instruments. Spatial fi…

Freezing the speckles: focal plane wavefront sensing with the spatially-clipped self-coherent camera

Joshua Liberman, Sebastiaan Y. Haffert, Jared R. Males +8

The next generation of Extremely Large Telescopes (ELTs) and the Habitable Worlds Observatory (HWO) require active speckle suppression to directly image exo-Earths. Focal plane wav…

On-sky dark hole diggin' with implicit Electric Field Conjugation on MagAO-X

S. Y. Haffert, J. Liberman, J. R. Males +17

Direct spectroscopy is very promising approach to characterizing the atmospheres of nearby rocky exoplanets. Non-common path aberrations (NCPA) are differential aberrations between…

A Multiband Study of the HR 4796A Disk in the Optical Using MagAO-X

Jay K. Kueny, Alycia J. Weinberger, Zhe-Yu Daniel Lin +18

We present total intensity images of the debris disk around HR 4796A from observations spanning 2023 to 2025 with the Magellan extreme adaptive optics instrument (MagAO-X). We dete…

ffortissimo: A Freeform Forward-Modeling Pipeline for High-Contrast Images of Circumstellar Disks Based on Automatic Differentiation

Jay K. Kueny, Joseph D. Long, Jared R. Males +16

Modeling circumstellar disks in the traditional sense carries the assumption that the dust density distribution can be accurately described with a fixed parametric form. Furthermor…
