Visible-Light High-Contrast Polarimetry with MagAO-X: Characterization and Initial Results
Miles Lucas, Laird Close, Jared R. Males +22
MagAO-X is a visible-light extreme adaptive optics instrument on the 6.5 meter Magellan Clay Telescope, recently upgraded to enable high-contrast polarimetric differential imaging…
Updating the SCExAO/CHARIS polarimetric calibration following the Nasmyth beam-switcher upgrade
Thomas McIntosh, Manxuan Zhang, Briley L. Lewis +18
Subaru/SCExAO/CHARIS enables near-infrared integral field spectropolarimetry. Quantitative polarimetry is useful for a variety of science cases, particularly measurements related t…
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…
