Ground control to major time-lag: on-sky results of data-driven predictive wavefront control at Keck Observatory
Jules Fowler, Rebeca Jensen-Clem, Sylvain Cetre +12
Directly imaging and characterizing exoplanets requires extreme adaptive optics (XAO), which achieves exquisite wavefront correction over a small (<5") field of view. Temporal erro…
Keck Observatory as an HWO Testbed: validating wavefront sensing and control schemes on a large segmented aperture in parallel with high-contrast science
Maïssa Salama, Rebecca Jensen-Clem, Mahawa Cissé +6
Exoplanet direct imaging allows us to directly probe and characterize an exoplanet's atmosphere, searching for signs of life in its atmospheric signatures. Directly imaging an Eart…
Technical description and performance of the phase II version of the Keck Planet Imager and Characterizer
Nemanja Jovanovic, Daniel Echeverri, Jacques-Robert Delorme +46
The Keck Planet Imager and Characterizer (KPIC) is a series of upgrades for the Keck II Adaptive Optics (AO) system and the NIRSPEC spectrograph to enable diffraction limited, high…
Reconstruction methods for the phase-shifted Zernike wavefront sensor
Vincent Chambouleyron, Mahawa Cissé, Maïssa Salama +8
The Zernike wavefront sensor (ZWFS) stands out as one of the most sensitive optical systems for measuring the phase of an incoming wavefront, reaching photon efficiencies close to…
Towards understanding interactions between the AO system and segment co-phasing with the vector-Zernike wavefront sensor on Keck
Maïssa Salama, Charlotte Guthery, Vincent Chambouleyron +14
We extend our previous demonstration of the first on-sky primary mirror segment closed-loop control on Keck using a vector-Zernike wavefront sensor (vZWFS), which improved the Stre…
Keck Primary Mirror Closed-Loop Segment Control using a Vector-Zernike Wavefront Sensor
Maissa Salama, Charlotte Guthery, Vincent Chambouleyron +17
We present the first on-sky segmented primary mirror closed-loop piston control using a Zernike wavefront sensor (ZWFS) installed on the Keck II telescope. Segment co-phasing error…
Sequential coronagraphic low-order wavefront control
Michael Bottom, Samuel A. U. Walker, Ian Cunnyngham +2
Coronagraphs are highly sensitive to wavefront errors, with performance degrading rapidly in the presence of low-order aberrations. Correcting these aberrations at the coronagraphi…
Design of the vacuum high contrast imaging testbed for CDEEP, the Coronagraphic Debris and Exoplanet Exploring Pioneer
Erin R. Maier, Ewan S. Douglas, Daewook Kim +26
The Coronagraphic Debris Exoplanet Exploring Payload (CDEEP) is a Small-Sat mission concept for high contrast imaging of circumstellar disks. CDEEP is designed to observe disks in…
The Versatile CubeSat Telescope: Going to Large Apertures in Small Spacecraft
Jaren N. Ashcraft, Ewan S. Douglas, Daewook Kim +10
The design of a CubeSat telescope for academic research purposes must balance complicated optical and structural designs with cost to maximize performance in extreme environments.…
