Geometric Distortion Calibration with Photo-lithographic Pinhole Masks for High-Precision Astrometry

Maxwell Service, Jessica R. Lu, Mark Chun +5

Adaptive optics (AO) systems deliver high-resolution images that may be ideal for precisely measuring positions of stars (i.e. astrometry) if the system has stable and well-calibra…
