Design, pointing control, and on-sky performance of the mid-infrared vortex coronagraph for the VLT/NEAR experiment
A. -L. Maire, E. Huby, O. Absil +16
Vortex coronagraphs have been shown to be a promising avenue for high-contrast imaging in the close-in environment of stars at thermal infrared (IR) wavelengths. They are included…
Microelectromechanical deformable mirror development for high-contrast imaging, part 1: miniaturized, flight-capable control electronics
Eduardo Bendek, Garreth Ruane, Camilo Mejia Prada +3
Deformable mirrors (DMs) are a critical technology to enable coronagraphic direct imaging of exoplanets with current and planned ground - and space-based telescopes as well as futu…
Wavefront sensing and control in space-based coronagraph instruments using Zernike's phase-contrast method
Garreth Ruane, J. Kent Wallace, John Steeves +14
Future space telescopes with coronagraph instruments will use a wavefront sensor (WFS) to measure and correct for phase errors and stabilize the stellar intensity in high-contrast…
Paving the Way to Future Missions: the Roman Space Telescope Coronagraph Technology Demonstration
B. Mennesson, R. Juanola-Parramon, B. Nemati +33
This document summarizes how far the Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope Coronagraph Instrument (Roman CGI) will go toward demonstrating high-contrast imaging and spectroscopic requi…
The Habitable Exoplanet Observatory (HabEx) Mission Concept Study Final Report
B. Scott Gaudi, Sara Seager, Bertrand Mennesson +183
The Habitable Exoplanet Observatory, or HabEx, has been designed to be the Great Observatory of the 2030s. For the first time in human history, technologies have matured sufficient…
Simulations of a High-Contrast Single-Mode Fiber Coronagraphic Multi-Object Spectrograph for Future Space Telescopes
Carl T. Coker, Stuart B. Shaklan, A J E. Riggs +1
Directly imaging and characterizing Earth-like exoplanets is a tremendously difficult instrumental challenge. Present coronagraphic systems have yet to achieve the required $10^{-1…
