Testing of machine learning wavefront sensing algorithms on the Tiny Observatory for Telescope Optimization (TOTO) testbed
Sanchit Sabhlok, Solvay A. Blomquist, Maggie Y +16
Phase retrieval techniques are utilized to correct low order wavefront aberrations originating from misalignments of the optical system in space based telescope concepts. Tradition…
Tiny Observatory for Telescope Optimization (TOTO): testing algorithms for autonomous on-orbit alignment for space-based telescope systems
Solvay A. Blomquist, Sanchit Sabhlok, Hyukmo Kang +11
The Tiny Observatory for Telescope Optimization (TOTO) is an optical testbed designed to evaluate the efficacy of autonomously driven alignment algorithms for space-based telescope…
Stages of commissioning alignment for three-mirror anastigmat (TMA) telescopes
Solvay Blomquist, Heejoo Choi, Hyukmo Kang +7
Reliable, autonomously, deployment of telescopes enables a wide range of possible science cases. In this paper, we present a method for multi-stage telescope alignment with a simpl…
Simultaneous Six-way Observations from the Navy Precision Optical Interferometer
Ellyn K. Baines, Solvay Blomquist, James H. Clark +7
We measured the angular diameters of six stars using the 6-element observing mode of the Navy Precision Optical Interferometer (NPOI) for the first time since the early 2000s. Four…
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…
Approaches to developing tolerance and error budget for active three mirror anastigmat space telescopes
Heejoo Choi, Young-Sik Kim, Hyukmo Kang +6
The size of the optics used in observatories is often limited by fabrication, metrology, and handling technology, but having a large primary mirror provides significant benefits fo…
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…
Analysis of active optics correction for a large honeycomb mirror
Solvay Blomquist, Hubert Martin, Hyukmo Kang +5
In the development of space-based large telescope systems, having the capability to perform active optics correction allows correcting wavefront aberrations caused by thermal pertu…
