Probability density cloud as a geometrical tool to describe statistics of scattered light

Natalia Yaitskova

First-order statistics of scattered light is described using the representation of probability density cloud which visualizes a two-dimensional distribution for complex amplitude.…

Probability density function and detection threshold in high contrast imaging with partially polarized light

Natalia Yaitskova

We obtain an expression for the probability density function (PDF) of partially developed speckles formed by light with an arbitrary degree of polarization. From the probability de…

Design, analysis and test of a microdots apodizer for the Apodized Pupil Lyot Coronagraph

P. Martinez, C. Dorrer, E. Aller Carpentier +4

Coronagraphic techniques are required to detect exoplanets with future Extremely Large Telescopes. One concept, the Apodized Pupil Lyot Coronagraph (APLC), is combining an apodizer…

Comparison of coronagraphs for high contrast imaging in the context of Extremely Large Telescopes

P. Martinez, A. Boccaletti, M. Kasper +4

We compare coronagraph concepts and investigate their behavior and suitability for planet finder projects with Extremely Large Telescopes (ELTs, 30-42 meters class telescopes). For…

Adaptive Optics Correction of the Wavefront Distortions Induced by Segments Misalignment in Extremely Large Telescope

Natalia Yaitskova, Christophe Verinaud

The capability of the adaptive optics to correct for the segmentation error is analyzed in terms of the residual wavefront RMS and the power spectral density of the phase. The anal…

Double stage Lyot coronagraph with the apodized reticulated stop for extremely large telescope

Natalia Yaitskova

One of the science drivers for the extremely large telescope (ELT) is imaging and spectroscopy of exo-solar planets located as close as 20mas to their parent star. The application…
