Extreme AO with MagAO-X
Using incoherent sparkles to callibrate pyramid WFS.
I am a graduate student at the University of Arizona as a University Fellow and NSF Graduate Fellow. I work on the MagAO-X extreme adaptive optics instrument, capable of directly imaging planets around other stars. My research has intrest lie in novel adpative optics techniques, from predictive control, ground based control, and now high performace calibrations.
