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…
Building a GRAVITY+ Adaptive Optics Test Bench
The Gravity Plus Consortium, Florentin Millour, Philippe Berio +22
We present the testbench aimed at integrating the GRAVITY+ adaptive optics GPAO. It consists of two independent elements, one reproducing the Coud{é} focus of the telescope, includ…
Low-order wavefront control using a Zernike sensor through Lyot coronagraphs for exoplanet imaging
R. Pourcelot, M. N'Diaye, E. H. Por +19
Combining large segmented space telescopes, coronagraphy and wavefront control methods is a promising solution to produce a dark hole (DH) region in the coronagraphic image of an o…
Experimental validation of active control of low-order aberrations with a Zernike sensor through a Lyot coronagraph
Raphaël Pourcelot, Mamadou N'Diaye, Emiel H. Por +11
Future large segmented space telescopes and their coronagraphic instruments are expected to provide the resolution and sensitivity to observe Earth-like planets with a 10^10 contra…
Potential and sky coverage for off-axis fringe tracking in optical long baseline interferometry
Abdelkarim Boskri, Romain G. Petrov, Thami El Halkouj +6
The spectacular results provided by the second-generation VLTI instruments GRAVITY and MATISSE on active galactic nuclei (AGN) trigger and justify a strong increase in the sensitiv…
The SPHERE infrared survey for exoplanets (SHINE)- I Sample definition and target characterization
S. Desidera, G. Chauvin, M. Bonavita +105
Large surveys with new-generation high-contrast imaging instruments are needed to derive the frequency and properties of exoplanet populations with separations from 5 to 300…
