Cassiopee: Defining the next-generation deformable mirror and high-speed SWIR camera for adaptive optics applications
B. Neichel, T. Fusco, F. Oyarzun +14
Future adaptive optics (AO) systems for astronomy, optical communications, space situational awareness, and laser-based defense require a new generation of components operating at…
HARMONI@ELT: instrument design, performance, and science capabilities
B. Neichel, J. Dunlop, S. Chittick +17
The paper describes the design, performance expectations, and scientific capabilities of HARMONI, the near‑infrared integral field spectrograph being built for the Extremely Large…
MAVIS: Enabling High-Precision Ground-Based Astrometry in the Visible Spectrum
Mojtaba Taheri, Jesse Cranney, Antonino Marasco +9
MAVIS (the MCAO-Assisted Visible Imager and Spectrograph), planned for the VLT Adaptive Optics Facility, represents an innovative step in Multi-Conjugate Adaptive Optics (MCAO) sys…
RISTRETTO: reflected-light exoplanet spectroscopy at the diffraction limit of the VLT
Christophe Lovis, Nicolas Blind, Bruno Chazelas +28
RISTRETTO is a visible high-resolution spectrograph fed by an extreme adaptive optics (AO) system, to be proposed as a visitor instrument on ESO VLT. The main science goal of RISTR…
Striving towards robust phase diversity on-sky: Implementing LIFT for VLT/MUSE-NFM
Arseniy Kuznetsov, Sylvain Oberti, Benoit Neichel +1
The recent IRLOS upgrade for VLT/MUSE narrow field mode (NFM) introduced a full-pupil mode to enhance sensitivity and sky coverage. This involved replacing the 2x2 Shack-Hartmann s…
Cassiopée, towards technological development for XAO on ELT: the e-APD infrared detector
Jean-Luc Gach, Piero Bruno, Julien Charton +4
The Cassiopée project aims to develop the key technologies that will be used to deploy very high-performance Adaptive Optics for future ELTs. The ultimate challenge is to detect e…
