Characterization of LBT atmospheric and turbulence conditions in the context of ALTA project
A. Turchi, E. Masciadri, C. Veillet
ALTA project has been active since 2016, providing, at LBT observatory site, forecasts of atmospheric parameters, such as temperature, wind speed and direction, relative humidity a…
Enhanced Seeing Mode at the LBT: A Method to Significantly Improve Angular Resolution over a 4' x 4' Field of View
Barry Rothberg, Julian C. Christou, Douglas L. Miller +3
Since 2014, the LBT's First Light Adaptive Optics (FLAO) system has also included a seldom used capability, known as Enhanced Seeing Mode (ESM), that can improve the angular resolu…

S. Rabien, R. Angel, L. Barl +48
Having completed its commissioning phase, the Advanced Rayleigh guided Ground-layer adaptive Optics System (ARGOS) facility is coming online for scientific observations at the Larg…
Current Status of the Facility Instrumentation Suite at The Large Binocular Telescope Observatory
Barry Rothberg, Olga Kuhn, Michelle L. Edwards +4
We review the current status of the facility instrumentation for the Large Binocular Telescope (LBT). The LBT has 2x 8.4m primary mirrors on a single mount with an effective collec…
Co-phasing the Large Binocular Telescope: status and performance of LBTI/PHASECam
D. Defrère, P. Hinz, E. Downey +19
The Large Binocular Telescope Interferometer is a NASA-funded nulling and imaging instrument designed to coherently combine the two 8.4-m primary mirrors of the LBT for high-sensit…
