Beam combination schemes and technologies for the Planet Formation Imager (PFI)
Stefano Minardi, Sylvestre Lacour, Jean-Philippe Berger +4
The Planet Formation Imager (PFI) initiative aims at developing the next generation large scale facility for imaging astronomical optical interferometry operating in the mid-infrar…
An instrumental puzzle: the modular integration of AOLI
Roberto L. López, Sergio Velasco, Carlos Colodro-Conde +12
The Adaptive Optics Lucky Imager, AOLI, is an instrument developed to deliver the highest spatial resolution ever obtained in the visible, 20 mas, from ground-based telescopes. In…
Planet Formation Imager (PFI): science vision and key requirements
Stefan Kraus, John D. Monnier, Michael J. Ireland +75
The Planet Formation Imager (PFI) project aims to provide a strong scientific vision for ground-based optical astronomy beyond the upcoming generation of Extremely Large Telescopes…
AOLI: Near-diffraction limited imaging in the visible on large ground-based telescopes
Craig Mackay, Rafael Rebolo, David King +11
The combination of Lucky Imaging with a low order adaptive optics system was demonstrated very successfully on the Palomar 5m telescope nearly 10 years ago. It is still the only sy…
Astronomical photonics in the context of infrared interferometry and high-resolution spectroscopy
Lucas Labadie, Jean-Philippe Berger, Nick Cvetojevic +9
We review the potential of Astrophotonics, a relatively young field at the interface between photonics and astronomical instrumentation, for spectro-interferometry. We review some…
An overview of the mid-infrared spectro-interferometer MATISSE: science, concept, and current status
A. Matter, B. Lopez, P. Antonelli +104
MATISSE is the second-generation mid-infrared spectrograph and imager for the Very Large Telescope Interferometer (VLTI) at Paranal. This new interferometric instrument will allow…
Performance estimates for spectrographs using photonic reformatters
Robert. J. Harris, Lucas Labadie, Ulrike Lemke +4
Using a photonic reformatter to eliminate the effects of conventional modal noise could greatly improve the stability of a high resolution spectrograph. However the regimes where t…
A novel high-contrast imaging technique based on optical tunneling to search for faint companions around bright stars at the limit of diffraction
Dominik Derigs, Lucas Labadie, Dhriti Sundar Ghosh +1
We present a novel application of optical tunneling in the context of high-angular resolution, high-contrast techniques with the aim of improving direct imaging capabilities of fai…
High spatial resolution optical imaging of the multiple T Tauri system LkHα 262/LkHα 263
S. Velasco, R. Rebolo, A. Oscoz +12
We report high spatial resolution i' band imaging of the multiple T Tauri system LkH 262/LkH 263 obtained during the first commissioning period of the Adaptive Optics Lucky I…
