Design of the vacuum high contrast imaging testbed for CDEEP, the Coronagraphic Debris and Exoplanet Exploring Pioneer
Erin R. Maier, Ewan S. Douglas, Daewook Kim +26
The Coronagraphic Debris Exoplanet Exploring Payload (CDEEP) is a Small-Sat mission concept for high contrast imaging of circumstellar disks. CDEEP is designed to observe disks in…
Experimental validation of active control of low-order aberrations with a Zernike sensor through a Lyot coronagraph
Raphaël Pourcelot, Mamadou N'Diaye, Emiel H. Por +11
Future large segmented space telescopes and their coronagraphic instruments are expected to provide the resolution and sensitivity to observe Earth-like planets with a 10^10 contra…
Variation on a Zernike wavefront sensor theme: optimal use of photons
Vincent Chambouleyron, Olivier Fauvarque, Jean-François Sauvage +6
The Zernike wavefront sensor (ZWFS) is a concept belonging to the wide class Fourier-filtering wavefront sensor (FFWFS). The ZWFS is known for its extremely high sensitivity while…
Calibration of residual aberrations in exoplanet imagers with large numbers of degrees of freedom
Raphaël Pourcelot, Arthur Vigan, Kjetil Dohlen +14
Imaging faint objects, such as exoplanets or disks, around nearby stars is extremely challenging because host star images are dominated by the telescope diffraction pattern. Using…
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…
