ADORA: a differentiable optical modeling and astrometric retrieval framework for SHERA
Dylan McKeithen, Stuart Shaklan, Gautam Vasisht +4
Searching for Habitable Exoplanets with Relative Astrometry (SHERA) is a proposed Small Explorer mission concept designed to measure the separation of nearby binary stars at microa…
AMIGO: a Data-Driven Calibration of the JWST Interferometer
Louis Desdoigts, Benjamin Pope, Max Charles +8
The James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) hosts a non-redundant Aperture Masking Interferometer (AMI) in its Near Infrared Imager and Slitless Spectrograph (NIRISS) instrument, providi…
Image reconstruction with the JWST Interferometer
Max Charles, Louis Desdoigts, Benjamin Pope +7
Flying on board the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) above Earth's turbulent atmosphere, the Aperture Masking Interferometer (AMI) on the NIRISS instrument is the highest-resoluti…
Differentiable Optics with dLux II: Optical Design Maximising Fisher Information
Louis Desdoigts, Benjamin Pope, Michael Gully-Santiago +1
The design of astronomical hardware operating at the diffraction limit requires optimisation of physical optical simulations of the instrument with respect to desired figures of me…
Astronomical Optical Interferometry from the Lunar Surface
Gerard van Belle, Tabetha Boyajian, Michelle Creech-Eakman +28
The lunar surface is a compelling location for large, distributed optical facilities, with significant advantages over orbital facilities for high spatial resolution astrophysics.…
