Adaptive optics (AO) is a technique that corrects for optical aberrations. It was originally
proposed to correct for the blurring effect of atmospheric turbulence on images in ground …

Since the year 2000, adaptive optics (AO) has seen the emergence of a variety of new
concepts addressing particular science needs; multiconjugate adaptive optics (MCAO) is …

High-contrast adaptive optics (AO) imaging is a powerful technique to probe the
architectures of planetary systems from the outside-in and survey the atmospheres of self …

Principles of Adaptive Optics describes the foundations, principles, and applications of
adaptive optics (AO) and its enabling technologies. This leading textbook addresses the …

We present the results of the Gould's Belt Distances Survey of young star-forming regions
toward the Orion Molecular Cloud Complex. We detected 36 young stellar objects (YSOs) …

Observations of circumstellar environments that look for the direct signal of exoplanets and
the scattered light from disks have significant instrumental implications. In the past 15 years …

Abstract The Subaru Coronagraphic Extreme Adaptive Optics (SCExAO) instrument is a
multipurpose high-contrast imaging platform designed for the discovery and detailed …

Context. In recent decades, direct imaging has confirmed the existence of substellar
companions (exoplanets or brown dwarfs) on wide orbits (> 10 au) around their host stars. In …

We report the discovery of a planetary-mass companion, HD 106906 b, with the new
Magellan Adaptive Optics (MagAO)+ Clio2 system. The companion is detected with Clio2 in …

We present the MKID Exoplanet Camera (MEC), az through J band (800–1400 nm) integral
