CATKit2-HCI: a collaborative framework for advancing high-contrast coronagraph testbeds
Rémi Soummer, Iva Laginja, Emiel H. Por +19
High-contrast exoplanet imaging requires dedicated laboratory testbeds for the development and validation of coronagraph architectures, wavefront sensing and control methods, calib…
Developments on LLNL's high contrast testbed and Lick/ShaneAO
Benjamin L. Gerard, Dominic F. Sanchez, Aditya R. Sengupta +15
LLNL has recently setup a High Contrast Testbed (HCT) for AO and exoplanet imaging technology development. We present the various HCT technologies currently under development, incl…
Technical description and performance of the phase II version of the Keck Planet Imager and Characterizer
Nemanja Jovanovic, Daniel Echeverri, Jacques-Robert Delorme +46
The Keck Planet Imager and Characterizer (KPIC) is a series of upgrades for the Keck II Adaptive Optics (AO) system and the NIRSPEC spectrograph to enable diffraction limited, high…
Real-time control and data standardization on various telescopes and benches
Nour Skaf, Rebecca Jensen-Clem, Aaron Hunter +19
Real-time control (RTC) is pivotal for any Adaptive Optics (AO) system, including high-contrast imaging of exoplanets and circumstellar environments. It is the brain of the AO syst…
Implementation and Characterization of the Vector Vortex Coronagraph on the SEAL Testbed
Ashai Moreno, Vincent Chambouleyron, Rebecca M. Jensen-Clem +3
The Santa Cruz Extreme AO Lab (SEAL) testbed is an optical bench meant to design and develop new wavefront control techniques for high-contrast imaging for segmented telescopes. Th…
Towards understanding interactions between the AO system and segment co-phasing with the vector-Zernike wavefront sensor on Keck
Maïssa Salama, Charlotte Guthery, Vincent Chambouleyron +14
We extend our previous demonstration of the first on-sky primary mirror segment closed-loop control on Keck using a vector-Zernike wavefront sensor (vZWFS), which improved the Stre…
