Polarimetric interferometry is a method that allows the study of the distribution of polarized
flux at diffraction-limited resolution. Its basic observable is the ratio of the visibilities of the …

The Planetary Imaging Concept Testbed Using a Recoverable Experiment-Coronagraph
(PICTURE-C) mission will directly image debris disks and exozodiacal dust around nearby …

In this paper we examine several contrast-degrading static signature sources present in
current terrestrial exoplanet Lyot Coronagraph/Telescope optical systems. These are …

We present a numerical study of the diffraction effects and controllability of telescope
assembly polarization aberrations on apodized pupil Lyot coronagraph (APLC) and vector …

We present the design and fabrication of metasurface-type patterned wave plates for VIS
applications. The metasurface consists of a grating structure with periods much smaller than …

The polarization imaging properties of the Chinese Giant Solar Telescope (CGST) in the
case of near-diffraction-limited Imaging Spectro-polarimetry are investigated in this paper …

Image-based wavefront sensing using phase retrieval is a method to determine wavefront
error in a system using images taken with that system. It has been used to determine the …

In this paper we examine several contrast-degrading static signature sources present in
current terrestrial exoplanet Lyot Coronagraph/Telescope optical systems. These are …

The radial velocity (RV) technique is used to identify signatures of exoplanets orbiting their
host stars. Doppler measurements constrain the minimum planetary mass and are used to …
