XAO coronagraphy with the High-Order Test bench

XAO coronagraphy with the High-Order Test bench

Extreme adaptive optics systems dedicated to the search for extra solar planets are currently being developed for 8–10 meter class telescopes. The High-Order Test bench (HOT) is a high-contrast imaging adaptive optics bench developed at ESO. Its objective is to test and optimize different techniques...
