Acceleration of adaptive optics simulations using programmable logic
A. G. Basden, F. Assemat, T. Butterley +3
Numerical Simulation is an essential part of the design and optimisation of astronomical adaptive optics systems. Simulations of adaptive optics are computationally expensive and t…
Facility class Rayleigh beacon AO system for the 4.2m William Herschel Telescope
R. G. M. Rutten, P. Clark, R. M. Myers +9
A rationale is presented for the use of a relatively low-altitude Rayleigh Laser Guide Star to provide partial adaptive optics correction across a large fraction of the sky on the…
Diffraction-limited 800nm imaging with the 2.56m Nordic Optical Telescope
J. E. Baldwin, R. N. Tubbs, G. C. Cox +3
A quantitative assessment is presented of diffraction-limited stellar images with Strehl ratios of 0.25-0.30 obtained by selection of short-exposure CCD images of stars brighter th…
