DDO68 C: the actual appearance of a ghost satellite dwarf through adaptive optics at the Large Binocular Telescope

Francesca Annibali, Enrico Pinna, Leslie K. Hunt +12

Through adaptive optics (AO) imaging with the SOUL+LUCI instrument at the Large Binocular Telescope we were able to resolve, for the first time, individual stars in the gas-rich ga…

PSF nowcast using PASSATA simulations -- Towards a PSF forecast

A. Turchi, G. Agapito, E. Masciadri +8

Characterizing the PSF of adaptive optics instruments is of paramount importance both for instrument design and observation planning/optimization. Simulation software, such as PASS…

Adapting the pyramid wavefront sensor for pupil fragmentation of the ELT class telescopes

Nicolas Levraud, Vincent Chambouleyron, Olivier Fauvarque +8

The next generation of Extremely Large Telescope (24 to 39m diameter) will suffer from the so-called "pupil fragmentation" problem. Due to their pupil shape complexity (segmentatio…
