A Field Guide to Adaptive Optics

by Robert K. Tyson, Benjamin West Frazier

Overview

This slim, spiral bound volume provides basic information on adaptive optics. Aimed at students, researchers, and practicing engineers, it uses a modular approach that places a single topic on each page, accompanied by drawings, graphs, and charts. Coverage includes such topics as atmospheric turbulence models, beam propagation, system performance estimation, computational latency, and deformable mirror requirements. The volume also features a glossary of terms and a section of equation summaries. Annotation ©2004 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
