First high-contrast results on THD2 testbed after infrastructure upgrade
Iva Laginja, Pierre Baudoz, Rémi Soummer +17
We present the first scientific results delivered by the upgraded THD2 high-contrast imaging testbed. We report two advances enabled by its improved stability and broadband perform…
Vector Apodizing Phase Plates for the ELT: From prototype to final optics for METIS and MICADO
J. A. van den Born, R. Landman, D. S. Doelman +12
The first generation of instruments for the upcoming Extremely Large Telescope (ELT) will allow for the direct imaging of exoplanets that were previously below the sensitivity or r…
SUPPPPRESS: Prototyping and testing liquid-crystal vector vortex coronagraphs with reduced polarization leakage
Rico Landman, David Doelman, Jeroen Rietjens +16
The vortex coronagraph is one of the most promising candidates for the Habitable Worlds Observatory (HWO) due to its excellent theoretical performance for an off-axis telescope. A…
The TOLIMAN mission: A low-cost space telescope for high precision narrow-angle astrometry
Peter Tuthill, Christopher Betters, Max Charles +29
The TOLIMAN project is engaged with the construction, launch and operation of a low-cost space telescope of unorthodox optical design. Its primary science goal targets an exhaustiv…
The Santa Cruz Extreme AO Lab (SEAL) 2.0: A reflective, multi-wavelength rebuild
Rebecca Jensen-Clem, Vincent Chambouleyron, Prince Javier +20
The Santa cruz Extreme Adaptive optics Lab (SEAL) is a visible/near-infrared wavelength testbed designed to support technology development for high contrast imaging on large, segme…
Visible-Light High-Contrast Imaging and Polarimetry with SCExAO/VAMPIRES
Miles Lucas, Barnaby Norris, Olivier Guyon +17
We present significant upgrades to the VAMPIRES instrument, a visible-light (600 nm to 800 nm) high-contrast imaging polarimeter integrated within SCExAO on the Subaru telescope. K…
