The Arizona Lenslets for Exoplanet Spectroscopy (ALES) is the worlds first AO-fed thermal infrared integral field spectrograph, mounted inside the Large Binocular Telescope Interferometer (LBTI) on the LBT. An initial mode of ALES allows 3-4 micron spectra at R~20 with 0.026 spaxels over a 1x1 field-of-view. We are in the process of upgrading ALES with additional wavelength ranges, spectral resolutions, and plate scales allowing a broad suite of science that takes advantage of ALESs unique ability to work at wavelengths >2 microns, and at the diffraction limit of the LBTs full 23.8 meter aperture.
We present technical, instrumental, and software upgrades completed and planned at astronomical observatory called Osservatorio Astronomico Regionale Parco Antola, Fascia (OARPAF), hosting an 80cm, alt-az Cassegrain-Nasmyth telescope. The observatory
The integral field spectrograph configuration of the LMIRCam science camera within the Large Binocular Telescope Interferometer (LBTI) facilitates 2 to 5 $mu$m spectroscopy of directly imaged gas-giant exoplanets. The mode, dubbed ALES, comprises mag
We present the data reduction pipeline, MEAD, for Arizona Lenslets for Exoplanet Spectroscopy (ALES), the first thermal infrared integral field spectrograph designed for high-contrast imaging. ALES is an upgrade of LMIRCam, the $1-5,mu$m imaging came
The Q $&$ U Bolometric Interferometer for Cosmology (QUBIC) is a novel kind of polarimeter optimized for the measurement of the B-mode polarization of the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB), which is one of the major challenges of observational cosmol
The Gemini Planet Imager (GPI) is a high-contrast imaging instrument designed to directly image and characterize exoplanets. GPI is currently undergoing several upgrades to improve performance. In this paper, we discuss the upgrades to the GPI IFS. T
