The MICADO first light imager for the ELT: off-axis performance of PSF reconstruction

Matteo Simioni, Daniel Jodlbauer, Carmelo Arcidiacono +14

The highest scientific return, for adaptive optics (AO) observations, is achieved with a reliable reconstruction of the PSF. This is especially true for MICADO@ELT. In this present…

The power of prediction: spatiotemporal Gaussian process modeling for predictive control in slope-based wavefront sensing

Jalo Nousiainen, Juha-Pekka Puska, Tapio Helin +2

Time-delay error is a significant error source in adaptive optics (AO) systems. It arises from the latency between sensing the wavefront and applying the correction. Predictive con…
