Detection and Implications of Laser-Induced Raman Scattering at Astronomical Observatories
F. P. A. Vogt, D. Bonaccini Calia, W. Hackenberg +14
(Abr.) Laser guide stars employed at astronomical observatories provide artificial wavefront reference sources to help correct (in part) the impact of atmospheric turbulence on ast…
