MIRAC-5 on the MMT with MAPS: annular groove phase mask N-band coronagraphic upgrade
Alyssa L. Miller, Jarron Leisenring, Michael Meyer +15
We describe the coronagraphic upgrade underway for the Mid-Infrared Array Camera-5 (MIRAC-5) to be used with the 6.5-m MMT telescope utilizing the new MMT Adaptive optics exoPlanet…
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…
ELT-METIS imaging simulations for disks and envelopes associated with FU Ori-type objects
Michihiro Takami, Gilles Otten, Olivier Absil +3
We investigate the detectability of extended mid-infrared (MIR) emission associated with FU-Ori type objects (FUors) using the METIS coronagraphs on the 39-m Extremely Large Telesc…
ALF: an asymmetric Lyot wavefront sensor for the ELT/METIS vortex coronagraph
Gilles Orban de Xivry, Olivier Absil, Christian Delacroix +3
Non-common path quasi-static and differential aberrations are one of the big hurdles of direct imaging for current and future high-contrast imaging instruments. They increase speck…
METIS high-contrast imaging: from final design to manufacturing and testing
Olivier Absil, Matthew Kenworthy, Christian Delacroix +21
The Mid-infrared ELT Imager and Spectrograph (METIS) is one of the first-generation scientific instruments for the ELT, built under the supervision of ESO by a consortium of resear…
Impact of water vapor seeing on mid-infrared high-contrast imaging at ELT scale
Olivier Absil, Christian Delacroix, Gilles Orban de Xivry +9
The high-speed variability of the local water vapor content in the Earth atmosphere is a significant contributor to ground-based wavefront quality throughout the infrared domain. U…
