Knowledge of the optical turbulence profile is important in adaptive optics (AO) systems, particularly tomographic AO systems such as those to be employed by the next generation of 40-m class extremely large telescopes. Site characterization and moni... Read More about Representative optical turbulence profiles for ESO Paranal by hierarchical clustering.

Automated clustering method for point spread function classification (2018)
Journal Article
Wang, W., Jia, P., Cai, D., & Liu, H. (2018). Automated clustering method for point spread function classification. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 478(4), 5671-5682. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/sty1504

The point spread function (PSF) plays a very important part in image post-processing and high-precion astrometry and photometry. It is necessary to analyse the properties of the PSF before we use it to process data. However, in real observations, the...
