Label-free adaptive optics imaging of human retinal macrophage distribution and dynamics

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2020
Significance Microglia, a type of macrophage, were discovered a little more than a century ago by Pío del Río-Hortega. Since that time, we have gained an immense amount of knowledge on their origin and multifaceted function with the aid of labeling ...

A SHARP view of H0LiCOW: H0 from three time-delay gravitational lens systems with adaptive optics imaging [PDF]

open access: yesMonthly notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2019
We present the measurement of the Hubble constant, H0, with three strong gravitational lens systems. We describe a blind analysis of both PG 1115+080 and HE 0435−1223 as well as an extension of our previous analysis of RXJ 1131−1231.

On-sky results of the adaptive optics MACAO for the new IR-spectrograph CRIRES at VLT [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
The adaptive optics MACAO has been implemented in 6 focii of the VLT observatory, in three different flavors. We present in this paper the results obtained during the commissioning of the last of these units, MACAO-CRIRES.

Experimental Demonstration of Central-Lobe Energy Enhancement Based on Amplitude Modulation of Beamlets in 19 Elements Fiber Laser Phased Array

open access: yesIEEE Photonics Journal, 2021
Coherent beam combination of fiber laser phased array is a promising technique to achieve high-brightness laser output. In this paper, we focus on central-lobe energy enhancement of the combined beam in the far-field by theoretically and experimentally ...

Precision astrometry with adaptive optics [PDF]

open access: yesSPIE Proceedings, 2008
We investigate the limits of ground-based astrometry with adaptive optics using the core of the Galactic globular cluster M5. Adaptive optics systems provide near diffraction-limit imaging with the world's largest telescopes. The substantial improvement in both resolution and signal-to-noise ratio enables high-precision astrometry from the ground.

Wavefront sensing of atmospheric phase distortions at the Palomar 200-in. telescope and implications for adaptive optics [PDF]

open access: yes, 1997
Major efforts in astronomical instrumentation are now being made to apply the techniques of adaptive optics to the correction of phase distortions induced by the turbulent atmosphere and by quasi-static aberrations in telescopes themselves.

Adaptive Optics and Optical Vortices [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The achievement of minimal angular divergence of a laser beam is one of the most impor‐ tant problems in laser physics since many laser applications demand extreme concentration of radiation. Under the beam formation in the laser oscillator or amplifier with optically in‐ homogeneous gain medium and optical elements, the divergence usually exceeds the ...
