Deep exploration of Eridani with Keck Ms-band vortex coronagraphy and radial velocities: mass and orbital parameters of the giant exoplanet
Dimitri Mawet, Lea Hirsch, Eve J. Lee +27
We present the most sensitive direct imaging and radial velocity (RV) exploration of Eridani to date. Eridani is an adolescent planetary system, reminiscent of the early So…
SCExAO, an instrument with a dual purpose: perform cutting-edge science and develop new technologies
Julien Lozi, Olivier Guyon, Nemanja Jovanovic +31
The Subaru Coronagraphic Extreme Adaptive Optics (SCExAO) instrument is an extremely modular high-contrast instrument installed on the Subaru telescope in Hawaii. SCExAO has a dual…
Characterizing the performance of the NIRC2 vortex coronagraph at W.M. Keck Observatory
W. Jerry Xuan, Dimitri Mawet, Henry Ngo +15
The NIRC2 vortex coronagraph is an instrument on Keck II designed to directly image exoplanets and circumstellar disks at mid-infrared bands (3.4-4.1 m) and (4.…
The MICADO first light imager for the ELT: overview, operation, simulation
Richard Davies, João Alves, Yann Clénet +98
MICADO will enable the ELT to perform diffraction limited near-infrared observations at first light. The instrument's capabilities focus on imaging (including astrometric and high…
Hi-5: a potential high-contrast thermal near-infrared imager for the VLTI
D. Defrère, M. Ireland, O. Absil +25
Hi-5 is a high-contrast (or high dynamic range) infrared imager project for the VLTI. Its main goal is to characterize young extra-solar planetary systems and exozodiacal dust arou…
Review of high-contrast imaging systems for current and future ground-based and space-based telescopes III. Technology opportunities and pathways
Frans Snik, Olivier Absil, Pierre Baudoz +30
The Optimal Optical CoronagraphWorkshop at the Lorentz Center in September 2017 in Leiden, the Netherlands gathered a diverse group of 25 researchers working on exoplanet instrumen…
Review of high-contrast imaging systems for current and future ground-based and space-based telescopes II. Common path wavefront sensing/control and Coherent Differential Imaging
Nemanja Jovanovic, Olivier Absil, Pierre Baudoz +28
The Optimal Optical Coronagraph (OOC) Workshop held at the Lorentz Center in September 2017 in Leiden, the Netherlands, gathered a diverse group of 25 researchers working on exopla…
Review of high-contrast imaging systems for current and future ground- and space-based telescopes I. Coronagraph design methods and optical performance metrics
G. Ruane, A. Riggs, J. Mazoyer +29
The Optimal Optical Coronagraph (OOC) Workshop at the Lorentz Center in September 2017 in Leiden, the Netherlands gathered a diverse group of 25 researchers working on exoplanet in…
High-contrast imaging of HD 163296 with the Keck/NIRC2 L'-band vortex coronograph
G. Guidi, G. Ruane, J. P. Williams +16
We present observations of the nearby (D100\,pc) Herbig star HD~163296 taken with the vortex coronograph at Keck/NIRC2 in the L' band (3.7~m), to search for planetary mass…
Design study and first performance simulation of the ELT/MICADO focal plane coronagraphs
Clément Perrot, Pierre Baudoz, Anthony Boccaletti +5
In this paper, we present the design and the expected performance of the classical Lyot coronagraph for the high contrast imaging modes of the wide-field imager MICADO. MICADO is a…
The path towards high-contrast imaging with the VLTI: the Hi-5 project
D. Defrère, O. Absil, J. -P. Berger +26
The development of high-contrast capabilities has long been recognized as one of the top priorities for the VLTI. As of today, the VLTI routinely achieves contrasts of a few 10$^{-…
