Stray and Scattered Light Considerations in a Non-contiguous Array of Commercial CMOS Sensors in a Space Mission
Maggie Y. Kautz, Douglas Kelly, Heejoo Choi +6
Recent advances in CMOS technology have potential to significantly increase the performance, at low-cost, of an astronomical space telescope. Arrays of sensors in space missions ar…
Optical alignment of contamination-sensitive Far-Ultraviolet spectrographs for Aspera SmallSat mission
Aafaque R. Khan, Erika Hamden, Haeun Chung +48
Aspera is a NASA Astrophysics Pioneers SmallSat mission designed to study diffuse OVI emission from the warm-hot phase gas in the halos of nearby galaxies. Its payload consists of…
GMagAO-X: A First Light Coronagraphic Adaptive Optics System for the GMT
Maggie Kautz, Jared R. Males, Laird M. Close +17
GMagAO-X is a visible to NIR extreme adaptive optics (ExAO) system that will be used at first light for the Giant Magellan Telescope (GMT). GMagAO-X is designed to deliver diffract…
A Novel Hexpyramid Pupil Slicer for an ExAO Parallel DM for the Giant Magellan Telescope
Maggie Kautz, Laird M. Close, Alex Hedglen +3
The 25.4m Giant Magellan Telescope (GMT) will be amongst the first in a new series of segmented extremely large telescopes (ELTs). The 25.4 m pupil is segmented into seven 8.4 m ci…
The Optical and Mechanical Design for the 21,000 Actuator ExAO System for the Giant Magellan Telescope: GMagAO-X
Laird M. Close, Jared R. Males, Olivier Durney +9
GMagAO-X is the near first light ExAO coronagraphic instrument for the 25.4m GMT. It is designed for a slot on the folded port of the GMT. To meet the strict ExAO fitting and servo…
The conceptual design of GMagAO-X: visible wavelength high contrast imaging with GMT
Jared R. Males, Laird M. Close, Sebastiaan Y. Haffert +10
We present the conceptual design of GMagAO-X, an extreme adaptive optics system for the 25 m Giant Magellan Telescope (GMT). We are developing GMagAO-X to be available at or shortl…
