Starshade Rendezvous: Exoplanet Sensitivity and Observing Strategy
Andrew Romero-Wolf, Geoffrey Bryden, Sara Seager +33
Launching a starshade to rendezvous with the Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope would provide the first opportunity to directly image the habitable zones of nearby sunlike stars in…
High-Contrast Integral Field Spectrograph (HCIFS): multi-spectral wavefront control and reduced-dimensional system identification
He Sun, Alexei Goun, Susan Redmond +4
Any high-contrast imaging instrument in a future large space-based telescope will include an integral field spectrograph (IFS) for measuring broadband starlight residuals and chara…
Key Technologies for the Wide Field Infrared Survey Telescope Coronagraph Instrument
Vanessa P. Bailey, Lee Armus, Bala Balasubramanian +84
The Wide Field Infrared Survey Telescope (WFIRST) Coronagraph Instrument (CGI) is a high-contrast imager and integral field spectrograph that will enable the study of exoplanets an…
Simulating the WFIRST coronagraph Integral Field Spectrograph
Maxime J. Rizzo, Tyler D. Groff, Neil T. Zimmerman +12
A primary goal of direct imaging techniques is to spectrally characterize the atmospheres of planets around other stars at extremely high contrast levels. To achieve this goal, cor…
Commissioning and performance results of the WFIRST/PISCES integral field spectrograph
Prabal Saxena, Maxime J. Rizzo, Camilo Mejia Prada +6
The Prototype Imaging Spectrograph for Coronagraphic Exoplanet Studies (PISCES) is a high contrast integral field spectrograph (IFS) whose design was driven by WFIRST coronagraph i…
Data Reduction Pipeline for the CHARIS Integral-Field Spectrograph I: Detector Readout Calibration and Data Cube Extraction
Timothy D. Brandt, Maxime Rizzo, Tyler Groff +14
We present the data reduction pipeline for CHARIS, a high-contrast integral-field spectrograph for the Subaru Telescope. The pipeline constructs a ramp from the raw reads using the…
Far-Infrared double-Fourier interferometers and their spectral sensitivity
Maxime J. Rizzo, Lee G. Mundy, Stephen A. Rinehart +7
Double-Fourier interferometry is the most viable path to sub-arcsecond spatial resolution for future astronomical instruments that will observe the universe at far-infrared wavelen…
A Cryogenic Space Telescope for Far-Infrared Astrophysics: A Vision for NASA in the 2020 Decade
C. M. Bradford, P. F. Goldsmith, A. Bolatto +16
Many of the transformative processes in the Universe have taken place in regions obscured by dust, and are best studied with far-IR spectroscopy. We present the Cryogenic-Aperture…
