“imaka”-毛纳基亚地面层自适应光学系统
`imaka - a ground-layer adaptive optics system on Maunakea
摘要:
我们目前的集成状态为'imaka,地面层自适应光学(GLAO)系统的夏威夷大学的2.2米望远镜的Maunakea,夏威夷。这种宽视场GLAO探路者系统利用Maunakea高度受限的地面层和弱的自由大气,将校正后的视场推到约1/3度,面积场接近比任何现有或计划中的GLAO系统大一个数量级,在可见光和近红外区域的FWHM约为0.33弧秒。我们讨论了仪器的独特设计方面,驾驶科学案例以及它们如何影响系统,以及我们将如何在天空中展示这些案例。
英文摘要:
We present the integration status for `imaka, the ground-layer adaptive optics (GLAO) system on the University of Hawaii 2.2-meter telescope on Maunakea, Hawaii. This wide-field GLAO pathfinder system exploits Maunakea's highly confined ground layer and weak free-atmosphere to push the corrected field of view to ~1/3 of a degree, an areal field approaching an order of magnitude larger than any existing or planned GLAO system, with a FWHM ~ 0.33 arcseconds in the visible and near infrared. We discuss the unique design aspects of the instrument, the driving science cases and how they impact the system, and how we will demonstrate these cases on the sky.
