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,…
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…
A NICE (Nulling Interferometry Cryogenic Experiment) update: Beyond 1e-5 and towards cryogenic operation
Jonah T. Hansen, Thomas Birbacher, Germain Garreau +10
The Nulling Interferometry Cryogenic Experiment (NICE) is a mid-infrared laboratory testbed at ETH Zürich that aims to not only reproduce the deep () broadband nul…
Cryogenic characterisation for the Nulling Interferometry Cryogenic Experiment (NICE)
Jonah T. Hansen, Emilie Bouzerand, Adrian M. Glauser +11
The Nulling Interferometry Cryogenic Experiment (NICE) is an experimental testbed for the beam combiner of the Large Interferometer For Exoplanets (LIFE) space mission. Until now,…
Asgard/NOTT: Cryogenic characterization of the mid-infrared chip
G. Garreau, D. Defrère, R. Laugier +25
NOTT is part of the new visitor instrument suite Asgard for the Very Large Telescope Interferometer (VLTI), and the first long-baseline nulling interferometer that will be operatio…
Achieving efficient broadband spatial filtering for LIFE: status and plan
G. Garreau, T. Birbacher, L. Desdoigts +8
Nulling interferometry is one of the most promising techniques that is envisioned for the imaging and characterization of exoplanets in the mid-infrared for ground-based and space-…
The Nulling Interferometry Cryogenic Experiment (NICE): Architecture, requirements, and preliminary warm precursor results
Thomas Birbacher, Jonah T. Hansen, Felix A. Dannert +6
The success of the Large Interferometer For Exoplanets (LIFE) space mission depends on measuring the faint mid-infrared emission spectra of exoplanets while suppressing the glare o…
