Laser Beams And Images Adaptive Correction, Including Laser Guide Star Schemes For Formation And The Tip-Tilt Problem

Abstract

This report results from a contract tasking Institute of Atmospheric Optics RAS as follows: The contractor will investigate optical wave propagation in the atmosphere, atmospheric propagation model development, and codes describing the operation of various components of an adaptive system. Especially they will develop a 4D computer code for calculating the parameters of optical waves propagating in both inhomogeneous layers and random-inhomogeneous stratified media under the conditions of thermal blooming.
