Atmospheric turbulence profiling using multiple laser star wavefront sensors (2012)
Journal Article
Cortés, A., Neichel, B., Guesalaga, A., Osborn, J., Rigaut, F., & Guzman, D. (2012). Atmospheric turbulence profiling using multiple laser star wavefront sensors. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 427(3), 2089-2099. https://doi.org/10.1111/j.1365-2966.2012.22076.x

This paper describes the data pre-processing and reduction methods together with SLOpe Detection And Ranging (SLODAR) analysis and wind profiling techniques for the Gemini South Multi-Conjugate Adaptive Optics System (GeMS). The wavefront gradient me... Read More about Atmospheric turbulence profiling using multiple laser star wavefront sensors.

Using artificial neural networks for open-loop tomography (2012)
Journal Article
Osborn, J., De Cos Juez, F. J., Guzman, D., Butterley, T., Myers, R., Guesalaga, A., & Laine, J. (2012). Using artificial neural networks for open-loop tomography. Optics Express, 20(3), 2420-2434. https://doi.org/10.1364/oe.20.002420

Modern adaptive optics (AO) systems for large telescopes require tomographic techniques to reconstruct the phase aberrations induced by the turbulent atmosphere along a line of sight to a target which is angularly separated from the guide sources tha...
