The next generation of adaptive optics systems will require tomographic reconstruction techniques to map the optical refractive index fluctuations, generated by the atmospheric turbulence, along the line of sight to the astronomical target. These sys... Read More about Stereo-SCIDAR: optical turbulence profiling with high sensitivity using a modified SCIDAR instrument.

ULTRACAM z′-band detection of the secondary eclipse of WASP-12b (2013)
Journal Article
Föhring, D., Dhillon, V., Madhusudhan, N., Marsh, T., Copperwheat, C., Littlefair, S., & Wilson, R. (2013). ULTRACAM z′-band detection of the secondary eclipse of WASP-12b. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 435(3), 2268-2273. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/stt1443

We present z′-band secondary eclipse photometry of the highly irradiated hot Jupiter WASP-12b using ULTRACAM on the 4.2 m William Herschel Telescope. We measure a decrease in flux of δ = 0.130 ± 0.013 per cent during the passage of the planet behind... Read More about ULTRACAM z′-band detection of the secondary eclipse of WASP-12b.
