Space-situational awareness adaptive optics at Mount Stromlo: data analysis of the first results

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceedingConference contributionpeer-review

Abstract

This paper presents a preliminary analysis of the first results we have obtained from the adaptive optics systems built for EOS 1.8 m telescope at Mount Stromlo. This presentation focuses on the single-camera stereo-SCIDAR for monitoring the atmospheric seeing. We briefly summarize the system, describe its on-sky performance during commissioning, compare results to numerical simulations and evaluate the remaining challenges going into the future.
