Night-time measurements of astronomical seeing at Dome A in Antarctica
Bin Ma, Zhaohui Shang, Yi Hu +6
Seeing, the angular size of stellar images blurred by atmospheric turbulence, is a critical parameter used to assess the quality of astronomical sites. Median values at the best mi…
Automation of the AST3 optical sky survey from Dome~A, Antarctica
Bin Ma, Yi Hu, Zhaohui Shang +6
The 0.5\,m Antarctic Survey Telescopes (AST3) were designed for time-domain optical/infrared astronomy. They are located in Dome~A, Antarctica, where they can take advantage of the…
Multi-star Turbulence Monitor: A new technique to measure optical turbulence profiles
Paul Hickson, Bin Ma, Zhaohui Shang +1
The strength and vertical distribution of atmospheric turbulence is a key factor determining the performance of optical and infrared telescopes, with and without adaptive optics. Y…
Optical turbulence at Ali, China -- Results from the first year of lunar scintillometer observations
Paul Hickson, Lu Feng, Joschua A. Hellemeier +6
The location of an astronomical observatory is a key factor that affects its scientific productivity. The best astronomical sites are generally those found at high altitudes. Sever…
Exoplanets in the Antarctic Sky. I. The First Data Release of AST3-II (CHESPA) and New Found Variables within the Southern CVZ of TESS
Hui Zhang, Zhouyi Yu, Ensi Liang +37
Located at Dome A, the highest point of the Antarctic plateau, the Chinese Kunlun station is considered to be one of the best ground-based photometric sites because of its extremel…
