Future space missions such as LUVOIR and HabEx require large apertures and coronagraphs with active wavefront control to image and characterize faint exoplanets.
ECLIPS is the coronagraph instrument on LUVOIR, an 8-15m segmented telescope. The Apodized Pupil Lyot Coronagraph is the baselined mask technology to enable the required 10e−10 contrast for observations in the habitable zones of nearby stars.
Its performance depends on wavefront sensing and control to compensate for dynamic and static aberrations induced by beam shear, segment, and global wavefront errors. Here we present how these aberrations are simulated and evaluate the ExoEarth yield in different scenarios.
