Optical turbulence simulations at Mt Graham using the Meso-NH mode

S. Hagelin, E. Masciadri, F. Lascaux

The mesoscale model Meso-NH is used to simulate the optical turbulence at Mt Graham (Arizona, USA), site of the Large Binocular Telescope. Measurements of the CN2-profiles obtained…

Optical turbulence: site selection above the internal Antarctic plateau with a mesoscale model

E. Masciadri, F. Lascaux, S. Hagelin +2

Atmospherical mesoscale models can offer unique potentialities to characterize and discriminate potential astronomical sites. Our team has recently completely validated the Meso-Nh…

A dedicated tool for a full 3D Cn2 investigation

Franck Lascaux, Elena Masciadri, Susanna Hagelin

We present in this study a mapping of the optical turbulence (OT) above different astronomical sites. The mesoscale model Meso-NH was used together with the Astro-Meso-Nh package a…

Mesoscale optical turbulence simulations above Dome C, Dome A and South Pole

Franck Lascaux, Elena Masciadri, Susanna Hagelin

In two recent papers the mesoscale model Meso-NH, joint with the Astro-Meso-NH package, has been validated at Dome C, Antarctica, for the characterization of the optical turbulence…

Wind speed vertical distribution at Mt. Graham

S. Hagelin, E. Masciadri, F. Lascaux

The characterization of the wind speed vertical distribution V(h) is fundamental for an astronomical site for many different reasons: (1) the wind speed shear contributes to trigge…
