Adaptive Optics High Resolution Spectroscopy: Present Status and Future Direction

High resolution spectroscopy experiments with visible adaptive optics (AO) telescopes at Starfire Optical Range and Mt. Wilson have demonstrated that spectral resolution can be routinely improved by a factor of ~ 10 over the seeing-limited case with no extra light losses at visible wavelengths. With large CCDs now available, a very wide wavelength range can be covered in a single exposure. In t...

Advanced Synchronization in Mac OS X: Extending UNIX to SMP and Real-Time

Throughout the years, as Unix has grown and evolved so has computer hardware. The 4.4BSD-Lite2 distribution had no support for two features that are becoming more and more important: SMP and real-time processing. With the release Mac OS X Apple has made extensive alterations to our kernel in order to support both SMP and real-time processing. These alterations affected both the BSD and Mach por...
