A Fuzzy Logic Based Algorithm for Finding Astronomical Objects in Wide-Angle Frames [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Accurate automatic identification of astronomical objects in an imperfect world of non-linear wide-angle optics, imperfect optics, inaccurately pointed telescopes, and defect-ridden cameras is not always a trivial first step.

Real-time Experimental Demonstrations of a Photonic Lantern Wave-front Sensor

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2023
The direct imaging of an Earth-like exoplanet will require sub-nanometric wave-front control across large light-collecting apertures to reject host starlight and detect the faint planetary signal.

Post processing of differential images for direct extrasolar planet detection from the ground [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
The direct imaging from the ground of extrasolar planets has become today a major astronomical and biological focus. This kind of imaging requires simultaneously the use of a dedicated high performance Adaptive Optics [AO] system and a differential ...
