APLC-Optimization: an apodized pupil Lyot coronagraph design survey toolkit
Bryony F. Nickson, Emiel H. Por, Meiji M. Nguyen +9
We present a publicly available software package developed for exploring apodized pupil Lyot coronagraph (APLC) solutions for various telescope architectures. In particular, the pa…
GPI 2.0: Optical Designs for the Upgrade of the Gemini Planet Imager Coronagraphic system
Meiji M. Nguyen, Bryony F. Nickson, Emiel H. Por +7
The Gemini Planet Imager (GPI) is an integral field spectrograph (IFS) and coronagraph that is one of the few current generation instruments optimized for high-contrast direct imag…
JWST/NIRCam Coronagraphy: Commissioning and First On-Sky Results
Julien H. Girard, Jarron Leisenring, Jens Kammerer +53
In a cold and stable space environment, the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST or "Webb") reaches unprecedented sensitivities at wavelengths beyond 2 microns, serving most fields of…
JWST/MIRI coronagraphic performances as measured on-sky
A. Boccaletti, C. Cossou, P. Baudoz +16
Characterization of directly imaged exoplanets is one of the most eagerly anticipated science functions of the James Webb Space Telescope. MIRI, the mid-IR instrument has the capab…
The Science Performance of JWST as Characterized in Commissioning
Jane Rigby, Marshall Perrin, Michael McElwain +623
This paper characterizes the actual science performance of the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST), as determined from the six month commissioning period. We summarize the performanc…
