FIRST-PL: Commissioning the first visible photonic lantern spectrograph for sub-diffraction-limit astronomy on Subaru/SCExAO

Sebastien Vievard, Elsa Huby, Sylvestre Lacour +18

FIRST-PL (Fibered Imager foR a Single Telescope - Photonic Lantern) is a newly commissioned visible-light instrument on Subaru/SCExAO achieving spectroscopy below the diffraction l…

Empirical verification of principal mode orthogonality and relative phase calibration in photonic lanterns

Adam K. Taras, Barnaby R. M. Norris, Christopher Betters +5

The paper experimentally characterizes the principal modes of a photonic lantern using digital off‑axis holography, showing they are highly orthogonal and proposing ways to use thi…

Overcoming the low signal-to-noise problem for hybrid mode-selective photonic lantern-based wavefront correction using machine learning

Nathan K Long, Barnaby Norris, Daniel S Dahl +10

Hybrid mode-selective photonic lanterns transform an input complex point-spread function into several single-mode outputs, where a selected core feeds the fundamental mode to a pho…

Seidr update: photonic 'black magic' for high-contrast interferometry using kernel-nulling and photonic lanterns

Nathan K Long, Daniel S Dahl, Christopher H Betters +13

Seidr is a new interferometric beam combiner within the Asgard Suite, utilizing infrastructure common to the BIFROST instrument at the Very Large Telescope Interferometer. Seidr co…

Illuminating the lantern: coherent, spectro-polarimetric characterisation of a multimode converter

Adam K. Taras, Barnaby R. M. Norris, Christopher Betters +4

While photonic lanterns efficiently and uniquely map a set of input modes to single-mode outputs (or vice versa), the optical mode transfer matrix of any particular fabricated devi…

Experimental and on-sky demonstration of spectrally dispersed wavefront sensing using a photonic lantern

Jonathan Lin, Michael P. Fitzgerald, Yinzi Xin +12

Adaptive optics systems are critical in any application where highly resolved imaging or beam control must be performed through a dynamic medium. Such applications include astronom…
