使用VLT的中红外VISIR图像在公制尺度下测试turbulence模型

Testing turbulence model at metric scales with mid-infrared VISIR images at the VLT

A. Tokovinin, M. Sarazin, A. Smette

摘要:

我们探测湍流结构从厘米到公制尺度的同时成像在中红外和可见光波长的VLT望远镜,并表明,它偏离常用的Kolmogorov模型显着。的数据可以拟合的冯卡门模型与外部规模的顺序为30米,我们看到清晰的迹象的相位结构功能饱和的8米VLT孔径。图像质量在红外线中比标准λ ^{-1/5}缩放更快地改善,并且即使在波长大于8微米时没有自适应光学,在30-m孔径处也可能是衍射限制的。

英文摘要:

We probe turbulence structure from centimetric to metric scales by simultaneous imagery at mid-infrared and visible wavelengths at the VLT telescope and show that it departs significantly from the commonly used Kolmogorov model. The data can be fitted by the von Karman model with an outer scale of the order of 30 m and we see clear signs of the phase structure function saturation across the 8-m VLT aperture. The image quality improves in the infrared faster than the standard lambda^{-1/5} scaling and may be diffraction-limited at 30-m apertures even without adaptive optics at wavelengths longer than 8 micron.
