SHIMM: A Versatile Seeing Monitor for Astronomy
Saavidra Perera, Richard W. Wilson, Tim Butterley +3
Characterisation of atmospheric optical turbulence is crucial for the design and operation of modern ground-based optical telescopes. In particular, the effective application of ad…
Optimizing the accuracy and efficiency of optical turbulence profiling using adaptive optics telemetry for extremely large telescopes
Douglas J Laidlaw, James Osborn, Timothy J Morris +8
Advanced adaptive optics (AO) instruments on ground-based telescopes require accurate knowledge of the atmospheric turbulence strength as a function of altitude. This information a…
Optical turbulence profiling with Stereo-SCIDAR for VLT and ELT
J. Osborn, R. W. Wilson, M. Sarazin +11
Knowledge of the Earth's atmospheric optical turbulence is critical for astronomical instrumentation. Not only does it enable performance verification and optimisation of existing…
