The MICADO first light imager for the ELT: the SCAO module AIT in France, from the beta flat configuration towards the flat and final configurations

Yann Clénet, Vincent Lapeyrère, Eric Gendron +45

MICADO is the designated ELT first light instrument, a near-infrared imager working at the diffraction limit of the telescope thanks to a SCAO and an MCAO mode. Since summer 2024,…

Strategy for sensing petal mode in presence of AO residual turbulence with pyramid wavefront sensor

Nicolas Levraud, Vincent Chambouleyron, Jean François Sauvage +9

With the Extremely Large Telescope-generation telescopes come new challenges. The complexity of these telescopes' pupil creates new problems for Adaptive Optics. In particular, the…

Modeling noise propagation in Fourier-filtering wavefront sensing, fundamental limits and quantitative comparison

Vincent Chambouleyron, Olivier Fauvarque, Cédric Plantet +5

Adaptive optics (AO) is a technique allowing to drastically improve ground-based telescopes angular resolution. The wavefront sensor (WFS) is one of the key components of such syst…

Optimizing Fourier-Filtering WFS to reach sensitivity close to the fundamental limit

Vincent Chambouleyron, Olivier Fauvarque, Cédric Plantet +5

To reach the full potential of the new generation of ground based telescopes, an extremely fine adjustment of the phase is required. Wavefront control and correction before detecti…

Adapting the pyramid wavefront sensor for pupil fragmentation of the ELT class telescopes

Nicolas Levraud, Vincent Chambouleyron, Olivier Fauvarque +8

The next generation of Extremely Large Telescope (24 to 39m diameter) will suffer from the so-called "pupil fragmentation" problem. Due to their pupil shape complexity (segmentatio…
