Optical and Mechanical Design of the Chara Array Adaptive Optics
The CHARA array is an optical/near infrared interferometer consisting of six 1-meter diameter telescopes with the longest baseline of 331 m. With high angular resolution, the CHARA array provides a unique and powerful way of studying nearby stellar systems. In 2011, the CHARA array was funded by NSF-ATI for an upgrade of adaptive optics systems to all six telescopes to improve the sensitivity b...
متن کاملAdaptive optics performance model for optical interferometry.
The optical interferometry community has discussed the possibility of using adaptive optics (AO) on apertures much larger than the atmospheric coherence length in order to increase the sensitivity of an interferometer, although few quantitative models have been investigated. The aim of this paper is to develop an analytic model of an AO-equipped interferometer and to use it to quantify, in rela...
متن کاملAdaptive Optics for Michelson Interferometry DIPLOMARBEIT
Precise distance measurement is crucial for the high-precision industry as the semiconductor manufacturing is one. Measurement devices based on the concept of a Michelson interferometer are widely used to implement a very accurate and non-contact distance measurement with nanometer resolution. Interferometers are often applied in environments where the optical path is uncovered and influenceabl...
متن کاملAdaptive Optics ——————————————— Effectiveness of High-Order Adaptive Optics in Ground-Based Stellar Interferometry
The ground-based optical interferometer with large apertures is a potential research tool for the study of stellar astrophysics and the synthesis of high-resolution stellar images. However, atmospheric turbulence can impose a significant limitation on the interferometer's performance. In order to reduce those degrading effects, we investigate the effectiveness of high-order adaptive optics in g...
متن کاملOptical Interferometry : Imaging at Visible and Infrared Wavelengths
Progress in astronomy is dependent on the development of new instrumentation that can provide data which are better in some way than the data which were available before. One improvement that has consistently led to astronomical discoveries is that of seeing finer detail in objects. In astronomy, the majority of the objects under study cannot easily be brought closer for inspection, so the typi...
