Exploring the NRO Opportunity for a Hubble-sized Wide-field Near-IR Space Telescope -- NEW WFIRST
Alan Dressler, David Spergel, Matt Mountain +24
We discuss scientific, technical and programmatic issues related to the use of an NRO 2.4m telescope for the WFIRST initiative of the 2010 Decadal Survey. We show that this impleme…
The EXoplanetary Circumstellar Environments and Disk Explorer (EXCEDE)
Olivier Guyon, Glenn Schneider, Ruslan Belikov +1
We present an overview of the EXoplanetary Circumstellar Environments and Disk Explorer (EXCEDE), selected by NASA for technology development and maturation. EXCEDE will study the…
New Techniques for High-Contrast Imaging with ADI: the ACORNS-ADI SEEDS Data Reduction Pipeline
Timothy D. Brandt, Michael W. McElwain, Edwin L. Turner +44
We describe Algorithms for Calibration, Optimized Registration, and Nulling the Star in Angular Differential Imaging (ACORNS-ADI), a new, parallelized software package to reduce hi…
Conceptual Design of the Coronagraphic High Angular Resolution Imaging Spectrograph (CHARIS) for the Subaru Telescope
Mary Anne Peters, Tyler Groff, N. Jeremy Kasdin +14
Recent developments in high-contrast imaging techniques now make possible both imaging and spectroscopy of planets around nearby stars. We present the conceptual design of the Coro…
Scientific Design of a High Contrast Integral Field Spectrograph for the Subaru Telescope
Michael W. McElwain, Timothy D. Brandt, Markus Janson +18
Ground-based telescopes equipped with adaptive-optics (AO) systems and specialized science cameras are now capable of directly detecting extrasolar planets. We present the expected…
Review of small-angle coronagraphic techniques in the wake of ground-based second-generation adaptive optics systems
Dimitri Mawet, Laurent Pueyo, Peter Lawson +26
Small-angle coronagraphy is technically and scientifically appealing because it enables the use of smaller telescopes, allows covering wider wavelength ranges, and potentially incr…
