On-sky capabilities and performance of the Keck All Sky Precision Adaptive Optics system
Avinash Surendran, Maxwell Service, Jacques R. Delorme +21
The Keck All Sky Precision Adaptive optics (KAPA) project upgrades the Keck I adaptive optics system to enable laser tomography using a four laser guide star (LGS) asterism. KAPA i…
Robo-AO-2: entering the era of automated science operations, hybrid wavefront sensing, and adaptive secondary integration
Christoph Baranec, Reed Riddle, James Ou +10
We present the first science results and new technical milestones from the Robo-AO-2 facility at the University of Hawaii 2.2-m telescope. Following successful commissioning, the s…
Simulation results for Robo-AO-2 using HAPA: a wavefront sensing technique for improving the adaptive optics correction of fainter stars
Ruihan Zhang, Christoph Baranec, Marcos A. van Dam +3
Direct imaging of exoplanets allows us to measure positions and chemical signatures of exoplanets. Given the limited resources for space observations where the atmosphere is absent…
Commissioning results from the Robo-AO-2 facility for rapid visible and near-infrared AO imaging
Christoph Baranec, James Ou, Reed Riddle +16
We installed the next-generation automated laser adaptive optics system, Robo-AO-2, on the University of Hawaii 2.2-m telescope on Maunakea in 2023. We engineered Robo-AO-2 to deli…
The Robo-AO-2 facility for rapid visible/near-infrared AO imaging and the demonstration of hybrid techniques
Christoph Baranec, Mark Chun, Donald Hall +23
We are building a next-generation laser adaptive optics system, Robo-AO-2, for the UH 2.2-m telescope that will deliver robotic, diffraction-limited observations at visible and nea…
