New Microbes and New Infections, EarlyView., 2014 Abstract We describe a case of fungal keratitis due to Beauveria bassiana in a farmer with Fuchs' dystrophy, treated with amphotericin B. Surgery with penetrating keratoplasty was necessary to resolve the lesions. Susceptibility testing and molecular sequencing permitted the identification and treatment of this rare aetiological agent of invasive ...

On-sky wide field adaptive optics correction using multiple laser guide stars at the MMT [PDF]
, 2008 We describe results from the first astronomical adaptive optics system to use multiple laser guide stars, located at the 6.5-m MMT telescope in Arizona. Its initial operational mode, ground-layer adaptive optics (GLAO), provides uniform stellar wavefront

Optics Express, 2019 We present a new Point Diffraction Interferometer (PDI). Binary adaptive optics (BAO) and Quaternary Adaptive Optics (QAO) can be performed with the help of this PDI as a wavefront sensor. The PDI interferogram, once binarized, is used in two consecutive steps to produce a quaternary mask with phase values 0, π/2, π and 3π/2.

The Durham adaptive optics real-time controller: Capability and ELT suitability [PDF]
, 2012 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 these, as well as ways in which optimisations can be made for specific adaptive optics systems and ...

Fast Restoration of Aberration-Degraded Extended Object Based on Local Region Abstraction
IEEE Photonics Journal, 2018 The compensating capability of wavefront sensorless adaptive optics (WFSless AO) system for extended object images degraded by aberration is severely limited to correction speed due to largely sized images and low frame rate of camera.

The Extreme Learning Machine for the Extraction of Mono-Exponential Decay Time
IEEE Photonics Journal, 2023 The mono-exponential decay has been used to describe various physical phenomena such as cavity ring-down signal, fluorescence decay, etc. In this paper, a neural network method of extreme learning machine (ELM) is adopted to efficiently extract decay ...

Visible near-diffraction limited lucky imaging with full-sky laser assisted adaptive optics [PDF]
, 2014 Both lucky imaging techniques and adaptive optics require natural guide stars, limiting sky coverage, even when laser guide stars are used. Lucky imaging techniques become less successful on larger telescopes unless adaptive optics is used, as the fraction of images obtained with well behaved turbulence across the whole telescope pupil becomes ...

Adaptive Optics Correction of the Wavefront Distortions Induced by Segments Misalignment in Extremely Large Telescope [PDF]
, 2006 The capability of the adaptive optics to correct for the segmentation error is analyzed in terms of the residual wavefront RMS and the power spectral density of the phase.
