MAVIS: Enabling High-Precision Ground-Based Astrometry in the Visible Spectrum

Mojtaba Taheri, Jesse Cranney, Antonino Marasco +9

MAVIS (the MCAO-Assisted Visible Imager and Spectrograph), planned for the VLT Adaptive Optics Facility, represents an innovative step in Multi-Conjugate Adaptive Optics (MCAO) sys…

Real-time control and data standardization on various telescopes and benches

Nour Skaf, Rebecca Jensen-Clem, Aaron Hunter +19

Real-time control (RTC) is pivotal for any Adaptive Optics (AO) system, including high-contrast imaging of exoplanets and circumstellar environments. It is the brain of the AO syst…

AstroLLaMA: Towards Specialized Foundation Models in Astronomy

Tuan Dung Nguyen, Yuan-Sen Ting, Ioana Ciucă +21

Large language models excel in many human-language tasks but often falter in highly specialized domains like scholarly astronomy. To bridge this gap, we introduce AstroLLaMA, a 7-b…

MAVIS: performance estimation of the adaptive optics module

Guido Agapito, Daniele Vassallo, Cédric Plantet +5

The MCAO Assisted Visible Imager and Spectrograph (MAVIS) is a new visible instrument for ESO Very Large Telescope (VLT). Its Adaptive Optics Module (AOM) must provide extreme adap…

On-sky validation of image-based adaptive optics wavefront sensor referencing

Nour Skaf, Olivier Guyon, Eric Gendron +14

Differentiating between an exoplanet signal and residual speckle noise is a key challenge in high-contrast imaging. Speckles are due to a combination of fast, slow and static wavef…

Towards Realistic Modeling of the Astrometric Capabilities of MCAO Systems: Detecting an Intermediate Mass Black Hole with MAVIS

Stephanie Monty, Francois Rigaut, Richard McDermid +9

Accurate astrometry is a key deliverable for the next generation of multi-conjugate adaptive optics (MCAO) systems. The MCAO Visible Imager and Spectrograph (MAVIS) is being design…
