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…
Mt. Graham: Optical turbulence vertical distribution at standard and high vertical resolution
E. Masciadri, J. Stoesz, S. Hagelin +3
A characterization of the optical turbulence vertical distribution and all the main integrated astroclimatic parameters derived from the CN2 and the wind speed profiles above Mt. G…
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…
Study of the winter 2005 Antarctica polar vortex
F. Lascaux, E. Masciadri, S. Hagelin +1
During winter and springtime, the flow above Antarctica at high altitude (upper troposphere and stratosphere) is dominated by the presence of a vortex centered above the continent.…
