Fully broadband vAPP coronagraphs enabling polarimetric high contrast imaging
Steven P. Bos, David S. Doelman, Jos de Boer +4
We present designs for fully achromatic vector Apodizing Phase Plate (vAPP) coronagraphs, that implement low polarization leakage solutions and achromatic beam-splitting, enabling…
SCExAO, an instrument with a dual purpose: perform cutting-edge science and develop new technologies
Julien Lozi, Olivier Guyon, Nemanja Jovanovic +31
The Subaru Coronagraphic Extreme Adaptive Optics (SCExAO) instrument is an extremely modular high-contrast instrument installed on the Subaru telescope in Hawaii. SCExAO has a dual…
Characterizing Vibrations at the Subaru Telescope for the Subaru Coronagraphic Extreme Adaptive Optics instrument
Julien Lozi, Olivier Guyon, Nemanja Jovanovic +6
Vibrations are a key source of image degradation in ground-based instrumentation, especially for high-contrast imaging instruments. Vibrations reduce the quality of the correction…
Hi-5: a potential high-contrast thermal near-infrared imager for the VLTI
D. Defrère, M. Ireland, O. Absil +25
Hi-5 is a high-contrast (or high dynamic range) infrared imager project for the VLTI. Its main goal is to characterize young extra-solar planetary systems and exozodiacal dust arou…
Review of high-contrast imaging systems for current and future ground-based and space-based telescopes III. Technology opportunities and pathways
Frans Snik, Olivier Absil, Pierre Baudoz +30
The Optimal Optical CoronagraphWorkshop at the Lorentz Center in September 2017 in Leiden, the Netherlands gathered a diverse group of 25 researchers working on exoplanet instrumen…
The path towards high-contrast imaging with the VLTI: the Hi-5 project
D. Defrère, O. Absil, J. -P. Berger +26
The development of high-contrast capabilities has long been recognized as one of the top priorities for the VLTI. As of today, the VLTI routinely achieves contrasts of a few 10$^{-…
