Adaptive optics is a field which is coming into its own with new discoveries occurring almost daily both in astronomy and in applications of AO in applied fields. In an adaptive optics system, the output from a wavefront sensor is used to calculate corrections that actively remove distortions from an image. The applications of adaptive optics in vision science have received considerable impetus from the knowledge developed by astronomers about how to correct images using AO technology. It is expected that developments in adaptive optics will radically change the face of astronomy in the 21st century. These systems will largely overcome the main limitation of ground-based telescopes, namely t...
A complete review of the state of the art of phase conjugate lasers, including laser demonstrations, performances, technology and selection of the most important class of nonlinear media. * Emphasizes the basic aspects of phase conjugation. * Chapter authors have all made major contributions to their subjects.
The papers in this volume emphasize the numerical aspects of three main areas: optimization, linear algebra and partial differential equations. Held in January, 1989, in Yucatan, Mexico, the workshop was organized by the Institute for Research in Applied Mathematics of the National University of Mexico in collaboration with the mathematical Sciences Department at Rice University.
Bei langen horizontalen Ausbreitungswegen ist die Atmosphäre, nicht die verwendete Sensorik entscheidend für die Qualität erfasster Bilddaten. Atmosphärische Turbulenz verursacht erhöhte Unschärfe, verringerten (Farb-)Kontrast und (scheinbare) Bildbewegungen, sowie Bilddeformierungen. Diese Arbeit beschäftigt sich mit der Frage, wie man diese beeinträchtigenden Effekte am besten abmildern und die Qualität der Bilddaten mithilfe geeigneter Rekonstruktionsverfahren verbessern kann. - For long horizontal propagation distances, it is the atmosphere, not the sensor technology which is responsible for the quality of acquired image data. Atmospheric turbulence causes increased blur, reduced (color) contrast and (apparent) image motion, as well as image deformation. This work addresses the question of how best to mitigate these degrading effects and improve image data quality using suitable reconstruction techniques.
