The Durham ELT adaptive optics simulation platform
Alastair Basden, Timothy Butterley, Richard Myers +1
Adaptive optics systems are essential on all large telescopes where image quality is important. These are complex systems with many design parameters requiring optimisation before…
Performance Modeling of a Wide Field Ground Layer Adaptive Optics System
D. Andersen, J. Stoesz, S. Morris +11
Using five independent analytic and Monte Carlo simulation codes, we have studied the performance of wide field ground layer adaptive optics (GLAO), which can use a single, relativ…
A Shack-Hartmann wavefront sensor projected onto the sky with reduced focal anisoplanatism
T. Butterley, G. D. Love, R. W. Wilson +2
A method for producing a laser guide star wavefront sensor for adaptive optics with reduced focal anisoplanatism is presented. A theoretical analysis and numerical simulations have…
