Pushing high angular resolution and high contrast observations on the VLTI from Y to L band with the Asgard instrumental suite: integration status and plans
Marc-Antoine Martinod, Michael J. Ireland, Denis Defrère +39
ESO's VLTI has a history of record-breaking discoveries in astrophysics using high-angular resolution instrumentation. Its latest visitor instrument, the Asgard instrumental suite,…
The Photonic Lantern Nuller: from concept to laboratory and on-sky demonstrations
Yinzi Xin, Nemanja Jovanovic, Dimitri Mawet +18
This thesis work presents the conceptual design and experimental characterization of the Photonic Lantern Nuller instrument, which uses a multimode-to-single-mode demultiplexing wa…
Hector Galaxy Survey: Falling in Between - Infalling Galaxies in the Midst of the Abell 3667 Merger
Oğuzhan Çakır, Matt Owers, Gabriella Quattropani +38
Whether cluster mergers enhance ram pressure stripping (RPS) and accelerate member galaxy evolution remains an open question. Here, we investigate galaxy populations in the nearby…
FIRST-PL: Commissioning the first visible photonic lantern spectrograph for sub-diffraction-limit astronomy on Subaru/SCExAO
Sebastien Vievard, Elsa Huby, Sylvestre Lacour +18
FIRST-PL (Fibered Imager foR a Single Telescope - Photonic Lantern) is a newly commissioned visible-light instrument on Subaru/SCExAO achieving spectroscopy below the diffraction l…
Overcoming the low signal-to-noise problem for hybrid mode-selective photonic lantern-based wavefront correction using machine learning
Nathan K Long, Barnaby Norris, Daniel S Dahl +10
Hybrid mode-selective photonic lanterns transform an input complex point-spread function into several single-mode outputs, where a selected core feeds the fundamental mode to a pho…
Seidr update: photonic 'black magic' for high-contrast interferometry using kernel-nulling and photonic lanterns
Nathan K Long, Daniel S Dahl, Christopher H Betters +13
Seidr is a new interferometric beam combiner within the Asgard Suite, utilizing infrastructure common to the BIFROST instrument at the Very Large Telescope Interferometer. Seidr co…
Empirical verification of principal mode orthogonality and relative phase calibration in photonic lanterns
Adam K. Taras, Barnaby R. M. Norris, Christopher Betters +6
Photonic lanterns efficiently map input spatial modes to single-mode outputs for applications like high angular resolution imaging and nulling interferometry. However, manufacturin…
Combining spectroscopy and wavefront control at deep contrast with photonic lanterns
Mona El Morsy, Olivier Guyon, Barnaby Norris +7
HWO aims to directly image objects orbiting Sun-like stars, using a 6-m telescope capable of high-contrast imaging () and spectroscopy to search for biosignatures in plan…
