Coronagraphic Imaging with HST and STIS

open access: yes, 2002
Revealing faint circumstellar nebulosity and faint stellar or substellar companions to bright stars typically requires use of techniques for rejecting the direct, scattered, and diffracted light of the star. One such technique is Lyot coronagraphy.

Mapping Ground-based Coronagraphic Images to Helioprojective-Cartesian Coordinate System by Image Registration

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
A few ground-based solar coronagraphs have been installed in western China for observing the low-layer corona in recent years. However, determining the helioprojective coordinates for the coronagraphic data with high precision is an important but ...

Joint Diagnostics of Circumsolar Sky Brightness Using Coronagraphic Measurements and Aerosol Optical Inversions at Maunaloa

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Atmospheric aerosols strongly influence daytime sky quality for solar coronal imaging, yet few studies directly link aerosol properties and sky brightness measurements within ∼2° of the Sun. Here, we compare externally occulted coronagraphic measurements

Exoplanet Imaging with a Phase‐induced Amplitude Apodization Coronagraph. III. Diffraction Effects and Coronagraph Design

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2006
Properly apodized pupils can deliver point-spread functions (PSFs) free of Airy rings and are suitable for high dynamical range imaging of extrasolar terrestrial planets (ETPs). To reach this goal, classical pupil apodization (CPA) unfortunately requires most of the light gathered by the telescope to be absorbed, resulting in poor throughput and low ...

OPTIMIZED PRINCIPAL COMPONENT ANALYSIS ON CORONAGRAPHIC IMAGES OF THE FOMALHAUT SYSTEM

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2013
We present the results of a study to optimize the principal component analysis (PCA) algorithm for planet detection, a new algorithm complementing ADI and LOCI for increasing the contrast achievable next to a bright star. The stellar PSF is constructed by removing linear combinations of principal components, allowing the flux from an extrasolar planet ...

Post-coronagraphic wavefront sensing and control for exoplanet imaging

open access: yes, 2018
L’imagerie d’exoplanètes est limitée par deux obstacles intrinsèques : le faible écart angulaire entre planète et étoile, et le très faible flux lumineux en provenance de la planète par rapport à la lumière de l’étoile.

Forward Modeling of Dust-induced Stray Light in Ground-based Coronagraphs: A Dual-path Monitoring Approach for High-precision Inner Corona Observations

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
High-precision ground-based observations of the inner corona (1.05–2.0 R _⊙ ) are fundamentally constrained by instrumental stray light, particularly the additive background from dynamic dust accumulation on the objective lens.

Wide-spectral-band Nuller Insensitive to Finite Stellar Angular Diameter with a One-dimensional Diffraction-limited Coronagraph

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal
Potentially habitable planets around nearby stars less massive than solar-type stars could join targets of the spectroscopy of the planetary reflected light with future space telescopes.
