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...
Integrated modeling approach for the Terrestrial Planet Finder Mission (2006)
Levine, Marie, Moore, Gregory, Basinger, Scott A., Kissil, Andrew, Bloemhof, Eric, Gunter, Steve
Because of the complexity of the Terrestrial Planet Finder (TPF) design concepts, the project will rely heavily on the use of engineering and science simulations to predict on-orbit performance....
Shi, Fang, Basinger, Scott A., Redding, David C.
Dispersed Fringe Sensing (DFS) is an efficient and robust method for coarse phasing of a segmented primary mirror such as the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST). In this paper, modeling and...

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...
Finite-Difference Time-Domain Integration of Ultrafast Dynamics in Optical Resonators (1998)
This thesis discusses optical pulse discrimination in nonlinear resonators. The goal is to design a system which interacts strongly with an optical pulse of a specific temporal shape but rejects all...
