NIRC2-Pol: First Light of Near-Infrared Polarimetry on Keck II
Briley L. Lewis, Manxuan Zhang, Maxwell A. Millar-Blanchaer +21
NIRC2, the Near Infrared Camera 2 on the Keck II telescope, was recently upgraded with a new suite of polarimetric observing modes. The new polarimetry modes (referred to as NIRC2-…
High-contrast aperture masking interferometry: detecting companions within the diffraction limit
Benjamin Calvin, Michael Fitzgerald, Jessica Castellanos
The pursuit of the direct discovery and characterization of Earth-like exoplanets has motivated high contrast imaging surveys using coronagraphs with narrow inner working angles. T…
Enabling Quantitative Polarimetry for Keck/NIRC2: Preliminary Mueller Matrix Model Calibration
Manxuan Zhang, Briley L. Lewis, Maxwell A. Millar-Blanchaer +27
The Keck/NIRC2 infrared imager was upgraded in 2025 with dual-beam polarimetric observing modes spanning approximately 1.1--4.1 microns (JHKL' bands). We present a preliminary JHK…
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…
The high-contrast performance of the Keck Planet Imager and Characterizer
Jason J. Wang, Dimitri Mawet, Jerry W. Xuan +25
The Keck Planet Imager and Characterizer (KPIC), a series of upgrades to the Keck II Adaptive Optics System and Instrument Suite, aims to demonstrate high-resolution spectroscopy o…
