Towards a Better Understanding of OPD Limitations for Higher Sensitivity and Contrast at the VLTI
Benjamin Courtney-Barrer, Julien Woillez, Romain Laugier +9
Precise control of the optical path differences (OPD) in the Very Large Telescope Interferometer (VLTI) was critical for the characterization of the black hole at the center of our…
L-band nulling interferometry at the VLTI with Asgard/Hi-5: status and plans
Denis Defrère, Azzurra Bigioli, Colin Dandumont +34
Hi-5 is the L'-band (3.5-4.0 m) high-contrast imager of Asgard, an instrument suite in preparation for the visitor focus of the VLTI. The system is optimized for high-contrast a…
Large Interferometer For Exoplanets (LIFE): VII. Practical implementation of a five-telescope kernel-nulling beam combiner with a discussion on instrumental uncertainties and redundancy benefits
Jonah T. Hansen, Michael J. Ireland, Romain Laugier +1
(Abridged) Context: In the previous paper in this series, we identified that a pentagonal arrangement of five telescopes, using a kernel-nulling beam combiner, shows notable advant…
