Pushing high angular resolution and high contrast observations on the VLTI from Y to L band with the Asgard instrumental suite: integration status and plans
Marc-Antoine Martinod, Michael J. Ireland, Denis Defrère +39
ESO's VLTI has a history of record-breaking discoveries in astrophysics using high-angular resolution instrumentation. Its latest visitor instrument, the Asgard instrumental suite,…
Silencing the stellar glare with kernel-nulling and active phase control on photonic chips
Marc-Antoine Martinod, Vincent Foriel, Nick Cvetojevic +4
Characterizing exoplanets and finding biosignatures are among the hottest topics in astronomy. This quest is challenged by the brightness contrast between the faint planet and the…
Asgard/NOTT: Status of laboratory nulling performance
T. Mattheussen, R. Laugier, D. Defrère +26
Nulling interferometry enables the direct detection of faint companions and circumstellar structures at angular separations unresolvable by classical, diffraction-limited imagers,…
Performance Analysis of the Asgard/NOTT Nulling Interferometer: Optimizing Observing Modes for High-contrast Detection
J. P. Scott, S. Ertel, T. A. Stuber +21
We evaluate the performance of three beam-combination schemes, single-Bracewell, asymmetric dual-Bracewell, and symmetric dual-Bracewell, for the forthcoming Asgard/NOTT nulling in…
Overcoming the low signal-to-noise problem for hybrid mode-selective photonic lantern-based wavefront correction using machine learning
Nathan K Long, Barnaby Norris, Daniel S Dahl +10
Hybrid mode-selective photonic lanterns transform an input complex point-spread function into several single-mode outputs, where a selected core feeds the fundamental mode to a pho…
Characterization and on-sky testing of photonic, AWG-based astronomical spectrographs
Jeronimo Calderon-Gomez, Frantz Martinache, Nick Cvetojevic +14
Astrophotonics is a field that intends to meet the needs of next-generation instruments at a small footprint, low cost, and high stability, compared to bulk-optics-based alternativ…
