Performance

Scientific paper

The New Worlds Observer enables high-contrast imaging by placing a space telescope in the dark shadow cast by an apodized starshade. This starshade is fully opaque and its performance is determined by the precise shape of the petal-like structure. In this paper, we describe our preliminary efforts to determine the tolerance of the starshade performance to errors in this shape.
