GRD seminar Laurie Paillier [ONERA]

Laurie Paillier research engineer at ONERA will present her work about optical links from ground to space. Here is an abstract of her presentation : Both the increasing imaging resolution of earth observation satellites and the advent of a space based globalized internet are currently urging for very high data rate transmissions between space and […]

GRD seminars Julien LOZI [NAOJ]

Julien Lozi a research engineer at Subaru telescope will present the  : Status of the upgrade of Subaru's facility adaptive optics: from AO188 to AO3000. Here is an abstract of is presentation : After almost 2 decades of on-sky operation, Subaru Telescope’s facility adaptive optics AO188 is getting several major upgrades to become the extreme-AO […]

GRD Seminar Lucie LEBOULLEUX [IPAG]

Lucie Leboulleux researcher at IPAG will present her work about  "High-contrast imagers robust to segmentation-due errors and low-wind effect". Here is an abstract of a presentation : Imaging and characterizing exoplanets down to Earth-like planets relies on instrument able to access objects with a contrast to their host star of the order of 10^(-10) to […]

Journée Des Doctorants du LAM

Amphi du LAM

PhD students will present their work in the "amphithéâtre", in English with French slides. A special session will take place in French at 15h45 on the activities of the groups GSP, GRD et GECO. Detailed program: Phd day planning

Soutenance de Thèse : Chen Xie

"Development of advanced post-processing methods for the direct detection of exoplanets with ground-based high-contrast imagers" Join Zoom Meeting https://univ-amu-fr.zoom.us/meeting/84538326148 Thesis Abstract: “Current high-contrast imaging techniques have limitations (i.e., self-subtraction and oversubtraction) at short angular separations (i.e., <0.3"), precisely where most exoplanets are situated. It is thus necessary to develop advanced post-processing techniques to overcome these […]

PhD defense of Loïc Barbot

The defense will be on Friday December 8th at 9:30am, in the amphitheater at École Nationale Supérieure Maritime (ENSM). Subject of thesis : MARIS STELLA project: high-precision star tracker for maritime navigation Summary: Astronomical navigation is surrounded by an aura of magic for ordinary people, but it is also a headache for the future sailor […]

In the absence […]

LAM seminar: Henri Bonnet (ESO)

Amphi du LAM

Wavefront architecture of the ELT The ELT Wavefront Control manages the 5 mirrors of the telescope in position and shape and delivers at the interface with the instruments a beam quality compatible with diffraction-limited performance after correction by post-focal AO systems. This is obtained if the spectral distribution of aberrations in the temporal and spatial […]
