The Durham adaptive optics real-time controller: capability and Extremely Large Telescope suitability (2012)
Journal Article
Basden, A., & Myers, R. (2012). The Durham adaptive optics real-time controller: capability and Extremely Large Telescope suitability. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 424(2), 1483-1494. https://doi.org/10.1111/j.1365-2966.2012.21342.x

The Durham adaptive optics real-time controller is a generic, high-performance real-time control system for astronomical adaptive optics systems. It has recently had new features added as well as performance improvements, and here we give details of...

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...
