RISTRETTO: Assembly and Testing of the Seven-spaxel, High-resolution, Diffraction-limited Spectrograph
Leonie Hoerner, Bruno Chazelas, Nathanaël Restori +24
The RISTRETTO project aims at the direct detection of the reflected light of extra-solar planets to measure albedos and detect possible biosignatures, using the high-contrast / hig…
Characterization and on-sky testing of photonic, AWG-based astronomical spectrographs
Jeronimo Calderon-Gomez, Frantz Martinache, Nick Cvetojevic +14
Astrophotonics is a field that intends to meet the needs of next-generation instruments at a small footprint, low cost, and high stability, compared to bulk-optics-based alternativ…
DD4AO control law for RISTRETTO: robustness, real-time performance, and on-sky validation with PAPYRUS
Isaac Dinis, Muskan Schinde, Nicolas Blind +11
This study presents DD4AO progress towards its implementation in the RISTRETTO instrument. DD4AO is a novel frequency-domain, data-driven controller for adaptive optics that levera…
On-sky demonstration of reinforcement learning for adaptive optics control
Jalo Nousiainen, Vincent Chambouleyron, Benoit Neichel +7
Reinforcement learning (RL)-based algorithms have recently emerged as a promising approach for adaptive optics (AO) control. In simulations and laboratory experiments, they have de…
