Experience with wavefront sensor and deformable mirror interfaces for wide-field adaptive optics systems
A. G. Basden, D. Atkinson, N. A. Bharmal +56
Recent advances in adaptive optics (AO) have led to the implementation of wide field-of-view AO systems. A number of wide-field AO systems are also planned for the forthcoming Extr…
Analysis of on-sky MOAO performance of CANARY using natural guide stars
Fabrice Vidal, Eric Gendron, Gerard Rousset +13
The first on-sky results obtained by CANARY, the Multi-Object Adaptive Optics (MOAO) demonstrator, are analysed. The data were recorded at the William Herschel Telescope, at the en…
Real-time correlation reference update for astronomical adaptive optics
Alastair Basden
The use of laser guide stars in astronomical adaptive optics results in elongated Shack-Hartmann wavefront sensor image patterns. Image correlation techniques can be used to determ…
TeV gamma rays from PSR 1706-44
P. M. Chadwick, M. R. Dickinson, N. A. Dipper +9
Observations made with the University of Durham Mark 6 atmospheric Cerenkov telescope confirm that PSR B1706-44 is a very high energy gamma-ray emitter. There is no indication from…
The Uuniversity of Durham Mark 6 Gamma Ray Telescope
P. Armstrong, P. M. Chadwick, P. J. Cottle +18
The design, construction and operation of the University of Durham ground-based gamma ray telescope is discussed. The telescope has been designed to detect gamma rays in the < 200…
