Experimental Demonstration of a Quantum-Optimal Coronagraph Using Spatial Mode Sorters: Code + Measurement Data

This repository contains all data and processing scripts for generating the results presented in the paper:

Experimental Demonstration of a Quantum-Optimal Coronagraph Using Spatial Mode Sorters

In particular, the upload contains:

raw and preprocessed experimental measurements associated with direct images of an artificial exoplanet collected with the benchtop coronagraph

digital twin of the MPLC mode sorter used for simulating coronagraph images and calculating the cross-talk matrix

codebase for data processing and figure/video generation associated with the paper (particularly the maximum-likelihood estimation of the location of an artificial exoplanet).
