Caption: Figure 3.
Illustration of the starshade and pupil plane sampling (not to scale). The pupil radius is approximately ﹩\frac{1}{10}﹩ the starshade radius. The starshade grid is of size Ns · Ns with sampling Δs. The zero-padding of the starshade Ns · γss necessary to achieve a ΔP sampling in the telescope plane with an FFT computation is illustrated. In the telescope plane, the telescope aperture of size NP · NP is shown, as is the slightly larger computed field of size ﹩{N}_{P}^{\parallel }\cdot {N}_{P}^{\parallel }﹩.
