TL;DR: In this article , the authors describe the sources of stray light and thermal background that affect JWST observations, report actual backgrounds as measured from commissioning and early-science observations, compare these background levels to pre-launch predictions, estimate the impact of the backgrounds on science performance, and explore how the backgrounds probe the achieved configuration of the deployed observatory.

High-contrast visible nulling coronagraph for segmented and arbitrary telescope apertures
TL;DR: The visible nulling coronagraph (VNC) as discussed by the authors is a coronagraph that spans all four types of telescope apertures and also employs differential sensing and control, and it has been shown that it can be used to detect distant objects.
