High contrast imaging with the JWST NIRCAM coronagraph. (2009)
Green, Joseph J., Beichman, Charles, Basinger, Scott A., Horner, Scott, Meyer, Michael, Redding, David C., ...
Relative to ground-based telescopes, the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) will have a substantial sensitivity advantage in the 2.2-5pm wavelength range where brown dwarfs and hot Jupiters are...
Sidick, Erkin, Morgan, Rhonda M., Green, Joseph J., Ohara, Catherine M., Redding, David C.
We have developed a new, adaptive cross-correlation (ACC) algorithm to estimate with high accuracy the shift as large as several pixels in two extended-scene images captured by a Shack-Hartmann...

Discrete Fourier Transform Person to whom proofs are to be sent (2008)
Miltiadis V. Papalex, David C. Redding, Miltiadis V. Papalexandris
The present paper reports on algorithms for the computation of the average phase of a beam over a detector in the near field. This work is part of the diffraction modeling efforts for the Space...

Dispersed fringe sensing (DFS) is an efficient and robust method for coarse phasing of segmented primary mirrors (from one quarter of a wavelength to as much as the depth of focus of a single...
Terrestrial Planet Finder Coronagraph optical modeling (2008)
Basinger, Scott A., Redding, David C.
The Terrestrial Planet Finder Coronagraph will rely heavily on modeling and analysis throughout its mission lifecycle. Optical modeling is especially important, since the tolerances on the optics as...

The Terrestrial Platet Finder high contrast imaging testbed facilitates the investigation into the diversity of engineering challenges presented by the goal of direct exo-planet detection, for...
Optical Prescription of the HST (2004)
The optical prescription of the Hubble Space Telescope is estimated by prescription retrieval from defocused WF/PC-II images. New formulas relating the HST primary mirror conic constant and spherical...
