Advancing European High-Contrast Imaging R&D Towards the Habitable Worlds Observatory

Iva Laginja, Óscar Carrión-González, Romain Laugier +31

The Habitable Worlds Observatory (HWO) will enable a transformative leap in the direct imaging and characterization of Earth-like exoplanets. For this, NASA is focusing on early in…

Discovery of a point-like source and a third spiral arm in the transition disk around the Herbig Ae star MWC 758

M. Reggiani, V. Christiaens, O. Absil +20

Transition disks offer the extraordinary opportunity to look for newly born planets and investigate the early stages of planet formation. In this context we observed the Herbig A5…

The W. M. Keck Observatory infrared vortex coronagraph and a first image of HIP79124 B

Eugene Serabyn, Elsa Huby, Keith Matthews +22

An optical vortex coronagraph has been implemented within the NIRC2 camera on the Keck II telescope and used to carry out on-sky tests and observations. The development of this new…

Characterization of the inner disk around HD 141569 A from Keck/NIRC2 L-band vortex coronagraphy

Dimitri Mawet, Élodie Choquet, Olivier Absil +22

HD 141569 A is a pre-main sequence B9.5 Ve star surrounded by a prominent and complex circumstellar disk, likely still in a transition stage from protoplanetary to debris disk phas…

A Mach-Zehnder interferometer based on orbital angular momentum for improved vortex coronagraph efficiency

P. Piron, C. Delacroix, E. Huby +5

The Annular Groove Phase Mask (AGPM) is a vectorial vortex phase mask. It acts as a half-wave plate with a radial fast axis orientation operating in the mid infrared domain. When p…

Mid-IR AGPMs for ELT applications

Brunella Carlomagno, Christian Delacroix, Olivier Absil +8

The mid-infrared region is well suited for exoplanet detection thanks to the reduced contrast between the planet and its host star with respect to the visible and near-infrared wav…
