Alignment of three mirror anastigmat telescopes using a multilayered stochastic parallel gradient descent algorithm
Solvay Blomquist, Heejoo Choi, Hyukmo Kang +4
When a telescope doesn't reach a reasonable point spread function on the detector or detectable wavefront quality after initial assembly, a coarse phase alignment on-sky is crucial…
A Generalized Expression for Accelerating Beamlet Decomposition Simulations
Jaren N. Ashcraft, Ewan S. Douglas, Ramya Anche +7
Paraxial diffraction modeling based on the Fourier transform has seen widespread implementation for simulating the response of a diffraction-limited optical system. For systems whe…
Astronomical Image Processing Benchmark Study for Various Telescope Aperture Shapes
Jyotika Roychowdhury, Kevin Derby, Daewook Kim
We explore the impact of different telescope apertures on the image simulation and deconvolution processes within the context of a synthetic star field. Using HCIPy and Python prog…
Approaches to lowering the cost of large space telescopes
Ewan S Douglas, Greg Aldering, Greg W. Allan +26
New development approaches, including launch vehicles and advances in sensors, computing, and software, have lowered the cost of entry into space, and have enabled a revolution in…
Integrated modeling of wavefront sensing and control for space telescopes utilizing active and adaptive optics
Kevin Z. Derby, Kian Milani, Solvay Blomquist +9
Extreme wavefront correction is required for coronagraphs on future space telescopes to reach 1e-8 or better starlight suppression for the direct imaging and characterization of ex…
Poke: An open-source ray-based physical optics platform
Jaren N. Ashcraft, Ewan S. Douglas, Daewook Kim +8
Integrated optical models allow for accurate prediction of the as-built performance of an optical instrument. Optical models are typically composed of a separate ray trace and diff…
