ADAPTIVE OPTICS STATUS



The Adaptive Optics system development is currently on hold in order to allow us to finish NSFCAM2 and the new telescope control system. In addition, we need to start work funded by the NSF to replace our secondary mirror with one that will be configured to remove the spherical aberration of the primary mirror. This will improve the image quality for all of our instruments and allow the adaptive optics system to achieve the best performance possible. If you would like further information on the adaptive optics system, please contact Alan Tokunaga or Eric Tollestrup.
