Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - Since the invention of the telescope, astronomers have been ableto view fainter and smaller objects in the sky. The mainlimitation to the quality of the images obtained has been, untilrecently, the presence of turbulence in the atmosphere. Tomitigate the effects of the turbulence, adaptive…optics systemshave been successfully implemented. Adaptive optics relies uponmeasuring the distortion of the wave-front caused by theatmospheric turbulence, called wave-front sensing, andcompensating for it in an adaptive fashion. The aim of this thesisis to provide a summary of the state-of-the-art of wave-frontsensing and to describe my contributions to the field.The most significant result in the thesis is the derivation of a new wave-front sensing technique.This approach uses the geometric optics approximation, which considers light to travelperpendicular to the wave-front. Consequently, a wave-front slope in a region of the telescopeaperture causes the displacement of a ray of light passing through that region. By taking twodefocused images, it is possible to deduce how the light intensity changed from one image to theother.

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - Adaptive optics is a powerful new technique used to sharpen telescope images blurred by the Earth's atmosphere. This authoritative book is the first dedicated to the use of adaptive optics in astronomy. Mainly developed for defence applications, th…e technique of adaptive optics has only recently been introduced in astronomy. Already it has allowed ground-based telescopes to produce images with sharpness rivalling those from the Hubble Space Telescope. The technique is expected to revolutionise the future of ground-based optical astronomy. Written by an international team of experts who have pioneered the development of the field, this timely volume provides both a rigorous introduction to the technique and a comprehensive review of current and future systems. It is set to become the standard reference for graduate students, researchers and optical engineers in astronomy and other areas of science where adaptive optics is finding exciting new applications.
