Imaging low-mass planets within the habitable zone of α Centauri
K. Wagner, A. Boehle, P. Pathak +39
Giant exoplanets on wide orbits have been directly imaged around young stars. If the thermal background in the mid-infrared can be mitigated, then exoplanets with lower masses can…
Design, pointing control, and on-sky performance of the mid-infrared vortex coronagraph for the VLT/NEAR experiment
A. -L. Maire, E. Huby, O. Absil +16
Vortex coronagraphs have been shown to be a promising avenue for high-contrast imaging in the close-in environment of stars at thermal infrared (IR) wavelengths. They are included…
High contrast imaging with ELT/METIS: The wind driven halo, from SPHERE to METIS
Faustine Cantalloube, Olivier Absil, Thomas Bertram +13
METIS is one of the three first-light instruments planned for the ELT, mainly dedicated to high contrast imaging in the mid-infrared. On the SPHERE high-contrast instrument current…
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…
The VORTEX coronagraphic test bench
Aissa Jolivet, Pierre Piron, Elsa Huby +5
In this paper, we present the infrared coronagraphic test bench of the University of Liège named VODCA (Vortex Optical Demonstrator for Coronagraphic Applications). The goal of the…
