Near-Noiseless Single-Photon Detection in the Infrared with a Megapixel Semiconductor Array for Low-Background Astronomy
Guillaume Huber, Pavaman Bilgi, Charles-Antoine Claveau +7
Sensor noise is a fundamental barrier to low-flux astronomical imaging and spectroscopy, where the ideal sensor would unambiguously distinguish individual photon arrivals. While op…
He'e-Lab: A modular testbed for astrophotonics and wavefront sensing development
Sebastien Vievard, Christopher Hamner, Nour Skaf +14
Advanced astronomical instrumentation requires accessible, reconfigurable platforms to validate novel technologies and algorithms before on-sky deployment. We present the design, a…
Fundamental Noise Limits of Infrared Detectors in the Presence of Readout Glow
Michael Bottom, Gustav Pettersson, Pavaman Bilgi +5
Read noise in infrared sensor arrays remains a major obstacle for ground- and space-based astronomy. It has long been recognized that the upcoming extremely large telescopes cannot…
Dynamical Analysis of the HD 169142 Planet-Forming Disk: Twelve Years of High-Contrast Polarimetry
Miles Lucas, Michael Bottom, Ruobing Dong +19
We present a dynamical analysis of the HD 169142 planet-forming disk based on high-contrast polarimetric imaging over a twelve-year observational period, offering insights into its…
PIRATES -- a machine-learning framework for polarized, interferometric image reconstruction
Lucinda Lilley, Barnaby Norris, Peter Tuthill +13
Optical interferometric image reconstruction is a challenging, ill-posed optimization problem which usually relies on heavy regularization for convergence. Conventional algorithms…
Progress towards a megapixel linear-mode avalanche photodiode array for ultra-low background shortwave infrared astronomy
Charles-Antoine Claveau, Michael Bottom, Shane Jacobson +12
Spectroscopy of Earth-like exoplanets and ultra-faint galaxies are priority science cases for the coming decades. Here, broadband source flux rates are measured in photons per squa…
Visible-Light High-Contrast Imaging and Polarimetry with SCExAO/VAMPIRES
Miles Lucas, Barnaby Norris, Olivier Guyon +17
We present significant upgrades to the VAMPIRES instrument, a visible-light (600 nm to 800 nm) high-contrast imaging polarimeter integrated within SCExAO on the Subaru telescope. K…
Jitter Characterization of the HyTI Satellite
Chase Urasaki, Frances Zhu, Michael Bottom +2
The Hyperspectral Thermal Imager (HyTI) is a technology demonstration mission that will obtain high spatial, spectral, and temporal resolution long-wave infrared images of Earth's…
