Control Algorithms for Multi-Wavefront Sensor Adaptive Optics for Astronomical Exoplanet Imaging

This package consists of simulations of control algorithms being proposed for upcoming adaptive optics projects for exoplanet direct imaging, in which one wavefront affector (deformable mirror) is controlled by two wavefront sensors. Simulations include time-domain behavior under various assumed conditions, parameter optimization routines for the controllers, and stability analysis.
