Adaptive Optics for Astronomy [PDF]

Annual Review of Astronomy and Astrophysics, 2012
Adaptive optics is a prime example of how progress in observational astronomy can be driven by technological developments. At many observatories it is now considered to be part of a standard instrumentation suite, enabling ground-based telescopes to reach the diffraction limit and, thus, providing spatial resolution superior to that achievable from ...
