E. Gendron et P. Lena, SINGLE-LAYER ATMOSPHERIC-TURBULENCE DEMONSTRATED BY ADAPTIVE OPTICS OBSERVATIONS, Astrophysics and space science, 239(2), 1996, pp. 221-228
Carried with an astronomical adaptive optics (AO) system, this work re
ports the observational evidences of wave-front deformations dominated
by sources of perturbation acting as phase slabs moving at a constant
speed in front of the telescope aperture. Consequences for improved a
daptive optics compensation are suggested.
