MAVIS: performance estimation of the adaptive optics module
Guido Agapito, Daniele Vassallo, Cédric Plantet +5
The MCAO Assisted Visible Imager and Spectrograph (MAVIS) is a new visible instrument for ESO Very Large Telescope (VLT). Its Adaptive Optics Module (AOM) must provide extreme adap…
Towards Realistic Modeling of the Astrometric Capabilities of MCAO Systems: Detecting an Intermediate Mass Black Hole with MAVIS
Stephanie Monty, Francois Rigaut, Richard McDermid +9
Accurate astrometry is a key deliverable for the next generation of multi-conjugate adaptive optics (MCAO) systems. The MCAO Visible Imager and Spectrograph (MAVIS) is being design…
Optical design trade-off study for the AO module of MAVIS
Davide Greggio, Simone Di Filippo, Demetrio Magrin +18
MAVIS (MCAO-Assisted Visible Imager and Spectrograph) is an instrument proposed for the VLT Adaptive Optics Facility (AOF), which is currently in the phase-A conceptual design stud…
MAVIS: system modelling and performance prediction
Guido Agapito, Daniele Vassallo, Cedric Plantet +5
The MCAO Assisted Visible Imager and Spectrograph (MAVIS) Adaptive Optics Module has very demanding goals to support science in the optical: providing 15% SR in V band on a large F…
Phase A Science Case for MAVIS -- The Multi-conjugate Adaptive-optics Visible Imager-Spectrograph for the VLT Adaptive Optics Facility
Richard M. McDermid, Giovanni Cresci, Francois Rigaut +18
We present the Phase A Science Case for the Multi-conjugate Adaptive-optics Visible Imager-Spectrograph (MAVIS), planned for the Adaptive Optics Facility (AOF) of the Very Large Te…
Multiconjugate Adaptive Optics for Astronomy
Francois Rigaut, Benoit Neichel
Since the year 2000, adaptive optics (AO) has seen the emergence of a variety of new concepts addressing particular science needs; multiconjugate adaptive optics (MCAO) is one of t…
