摘要
我们介绍了 DARKNESS(DARK-speckle Near-infrared Energy-resolving Superconducting Spectrophotometer),这是计划使用光学/近红外微波动态电感探测器(MKID)进行高对比度成像的几台积分场光谱仪中的第一台。MKID 提供的光子计数和同步低分辨率光谱功能将实现实时散斑控制技术和后处理散斑抑制,其帧速率能够分辨目前限制地面高对比度成像的大气散斑。DARKNESS 目前已在 Palomar 天文台的 PALM-3000 极限自适应光学系统和 Stellar Double Coronagraph 后运行。本文介绍了该仪器的动机、设计和特性、早期在轨观测结果以及未来前景。
