Calibration of the island effect: Experimental validation of closed-loop focal plane wavefront control on Subaru/SCExAO

Mamadou N'Diaye, Frantz Martinache, Nemanja Jovanovic +5

Island effect (IE) aberrations are induced by differential pistons, tips, and tilts between neighboring pupil segments on ground-based telescopes, which severely limit the observat…

Correcting for the effects of pupil discontinuities with the ACAD method

Johan Mazoyer, Laurent Pueyo, Mamadou N'Diaye +3

The current generation of ground-based coronagraphic instruments uses deformable mirrors to correct for phase errors and to improve contrast levels at small angular separations. Im…

Active correction of aperture discontinuities (ACAD) for space telescope pupils: a parametic analysis

Johan Mazoyer, Laurent Pueyo, Colin Norman +6

As the performance of coronagraphs improves, the achievable contrast is more and more dependent of the shape of the pupil. The future generation of space and ground based coronagra…

Polynomial Apodizers for Centrally Obscured Vortex Coronagraphs

Kevin Fogarty, Laurent Pueyo, Johan Mazoyer +1

Several coronagraph designs have been proposed over the last two decades to directly image exoplanets. Among these designs, the vector vortex coronagraphs provide theoretically per…
