Image Ellipticity from Atmospheric Aberrations
We investigate the ellipticity of the point-spread function (PSF) produced by imaging an unresolved source with a telescope, subject to the effects of atmospheric turbulence. It is important to quantify these effects in order to understand the errors in shape measurements of astronomical objects, such as those used to study weak gravitational lensing of field galaxies. The PSF modeling involves...
متن کاملProperties of Ellipticity Correlation with Atmospheric Structure from Gemini South
Cosmic shear holds great promise for a precision independent measurement of Ωm, the mass density of the universe relative to the critical density. The signal is expected to be weak, so a thorough understanding of systematic effects is crucial. An important systematic effect is the atmosphere: shear power introduced by the atmosphere is larger than the expected signal. Algorithms exist to extrac...
متن کاملMeasuring Atmospheric Scattering from Digital Image Sequences
Current environmental monitoring devices are limited in their capability of measuring atmospheric particulate matter (PM) over large areas. Quantifying the visual degrading effects of atmospheric scattering in digital images of urban scenery and correlating these effects to PM levels is a vital step in more practically monitoring our environment. Currently, image haze removal (or dehazing) tech...
متن کاملCorrecting chromatic aberrations using image warping
The problem of chromatic aberration arises because each wavelength of light is refracted diierently by the elements of a lens. Unfortunately , this means that is image will be blurred and distorted. In color imaging these distortions cause measurable diierences between the images. Recent research has proposed an approach for dealing with this aberrations by actively controlling the optics of th...
متن کاملQuantifying the Cosmic Web I: The large-scale halo ellipticity-ellipticity and ellipticity-direction correlations
The formation of dark matter halos tends to occur anisotropically along the filaments of the Cosmic Web, which induces both ellipticity-ellipticity (EE) correlations between the shapes of halos, as well as ellipticity-direction (ED) cross-correlations between halo shapes and the directions to neighboring halos. We analyze the halo catalogue and the semi-analytic galaxy catalogue of the recent M...
