Pupil Mapping in 2-D for High-Contrast Imaging
R. J. Vanderbei, W. A. Traub
Pupil-mapping is a technique whereby a uniformly-illuminated input pupil, such as from starlight, can be mapped into a non-uniformly illuminated exit pupil, such that the image for…
Optimal Asymmetric Apodizations and Shaped Pupils for Planet Finding Coronagraphy
N. Jeremy Kasdin, Robert J. Vanderbei, Michael G. Littman +1
The realization that direct imaging of extrasolar planets could be technologically feasible within the next decade or so has inspired a great deal of recent research into high-cont…
Rectangular-Mask Coronagraphs for High-Contrast Imaging
Robert J. Vanderbei, N. Jeremy Kasdin, David N. Spergel
We present yet another new family of masks for high-contrast imaging as required for the to-be-built terrestrial planet finder space telescope. The ``best'' design involves a squar…
