Characterization of diamond-turned optics for SCALES
Isabel J. Kain, Phil Hinz, Marius Doetz +12
High-contrast imaging has been used to discover and characterize dozens of exoplanets to date. The primary limiting performance factor for these instruments is contrast, the ratio…
SCALES for Keck: Optical Design
Renate Kupke, R. Deno Stelter, Amirul Hasan +9
SCALES is a high-contrast, infrared coronagraphic imager and integral field spectrograph (IFS) to be deployed behind the W.M. Keck Observatory adaptive optics system. A reflective…
Opto-Mechanical Design of ShaneAO: the Adaptive Optics System for the 3-meter Shane Telescope
Christopher Ratliff, Jerry Cabak, Donald Gavel +8
A Cassegrain mounted adaptive optics instrument presents unique challenges for opto-mechanical design. The flexure and temperature tolerances for stability are tighter than those o…
Swimming with ShARCS: Comparison of On-sky Sensitivity With Model Predictions for ShaneAO on the Lick Observatory 3-meter Telescope
Srikar Srinath, Rosalie McGurk, Constance Rockosi +10
The Lick Observatory's Shane 3-meter telescope has been upgraded with a new infrared instrument (ShARCS - Shane Adaptive optics infraRed Camera and Spectrograph) and dual-deformabl…
