Coronagraphy for DiRect Imaging of Exoplanets (CIDRE) testbed 1: concept, optical set up, and experimental results of adaptive amplitude apodization

Lucie Leboulleux, Alexis Carlotti, Stéphane Curaba +5

Oncoming exoplanet spectro-imagers like the Planetary Camera and Spectrograph (PCS) for the Extremely Large Telescope (ELT) will aim for a new class of exoplanets, including Earth-…

Redundant Apodized Pupils (RAP) for high-contrast imagers robust to segmentation-due aberrations and island effects

Lucie Leboulleux, Alexis Carlotti, Mamadou N'Diaye +6

The imaging and characterization of a larger range of exoplanets, down to young Jupiters and exo-Earths will require accessing very high contrasts at small angular separations with…

Redundant apodization for direct imaging of exoplanets I: Robustness to primary mirror segmentation-induced errors outside the segment diffraction limit

Lucie Leboulleux, Alexis Carlotti, Mamadou N'Diaye

Direct imaging and spectroscopy of Earth-like planets and young Jupiters require contrasts up to 10^6-10^10 at angular separations of a few dozen milliarcseconds. To achieve this g…

Analytical tolerancing of segmented telescope co-phasing for exo-Earth high-contrast imaging

Iva Laginja, Remi Soummer, Laurent M. Mugnier +5

This paper introduces an analytical method to calculate segment-level wavefront error tolerances in order to enable the detection of faint extra-solar planets using segmented teles…

Analytical model-based analysis of long-exposure images fromground-based telescopes

Lucie Leboulleux, Raphaël Galicher, Eric Gendron +2

The search for Earth-like exoplanets requires high-contrast and high-angular resolution instruments, which designs can be very complex: they need an adaptive optics system to compe…
