A Year of Wavefront Sensing with JWST in Flight: Cycle 1 Telescope Monitoring and Maintenance Summary
Charles-Philippe Lajoie, Matthew Lallo, Marcio Meléndez +7
We summarize JWST's measured telescope performance across science Cycle 1. The stability of segments alignments is typically better than 10 nanometers RMS between measurements ever…
The JWST Early Release Science Program for Direct Observations of Exoplanetary Systems: Best Practices for Data Collection in Cycle 2 and Beyond
Sasha Hinkley, Beth Biller, Andrew Skemer +35
We present a set of recommended best practices for JWST data collection for members of the community focussed on the direct imaging and spectroscopy of exoplanetary systems. These…
Low-order wavefront control using a Zernike sensor through Lyot coronagraphs for exoplanet imaging: II. Concurrent operation with stroke minimization
R. Pourcelot, E. H. Por, M. N'Diaye +16
Wavefront sensing and control (WFSC) will play a key role in improving the stability of future large segmented space telescopes while relaxing the thermo-mechanical constraints on…
The James Webb Space Telescope Mission: Optical Telescope Element Design, Development, and Performance
Michael W. McElwain, Lee D. Feinberg, Marshall D. Perrin +126
The James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) is a large, infrared space telescope that has recently started its science program which will enable breakthroughs in astrophysics and planeta…
