Undergrad NRM at Stony Brook Parmentier & Sivaramakrishnan Inexpensive CCD camera, lens, laser-cut SS mask SB NRM Testbed Mark II – mirror instead of lens 2010 NSF REU Alexandra Greenbaum to make a ‘star+planet’ for the testbed
Undergrad NRM data – space-like Parmentier & Sivaramakrishnan FT of ‘interferogram’: absolute value and phase GOAL: Develop estimates of contrast of faint point source companions that JWST can achieve in IR to see protoplanets in Taurus, and other places planets are being formed. Stable images, data reduction algorithm development, help plan JWST science & observing proposals Future extragalactic space-based observations of disks and dusty tori around massive black holes at centers of external galaxies – JWST (& ATLAST)

Bright stars possible (M >= 2 ) Good target acquisition cures calibration troubles Robust to PM actuator freezing Mask is also a wavefront sensor Robust backup for coarse phasing QUESTIONS: How good can the contrast really get,???
