The highly successful AO program at the UH is now planning to expand the curvature technology into higher order correction systems with a unique Vis/IR WFS concept.. Computer simulation have been carried out scaling the current 13 element system now being used at the CFHT on Mauna Kea to a 36 element design. The Vis-IR WFS sensor is expected to increase the performance overall, all as it is used to study young stellar objects that are at many times deeply reddened. An example is HL Tau, in the visible it is around magnitude 14 and at the H band it magnitude 9 or 100 times brighter!

The Adaptive Optics system, built at the Institute for Astronomy (University of Hawai’i), has been making unique scientific observations since 1993. During that period this versatile AO system has been mounted at both Cassegrain and coude feeds at the 3.6m CFH telescope and the bent Cassegrain at the 3.8m UKIRT telescope. The instrument is now permanently a Cassegrain instrument which has enjoyed 24 nights of 4m class observing at Manua Kea.

Adaptive optics (AO) works in many cases in the partial correction regime, i.e. with a Strehl ratio lower than 0.8. In this regime, seeing variations induce some variations in the correction (see Tessier 95), as shown on Fig. 1 which plots the Strehl ratio for continuous frames taken with the Come-On Plus instrument (see Beuzit et al. 94 for a description of this instrument).

At present, some large-scale programs are carried out in various countries that are aimed towards development of a new class of ground and space telescopes for both civil and military use. Being now at different stages of implementation, these programs have been initiated by both scientific and military and political causes and, to a large extent, owing to emerging technologies coupled mainly with active and adaptive optics.

Adaptive Optics (AO) has the capability of providing diffraction-limited images from ground-based astronomical telescopes through the turbulent atmosphere. Because of limitations in the AO system, the point spread functions (PSF’s) of the AO system suffers from incomplete compensation and variability. Depending on the observation wavelength (λ), the spatial coherence length of the atmosphere (r0), the sub-aperture size (d), the correlation time of the atmosphere (τ0), the sample time of the wavefront sensing (t s ), and the signal strength of the source, the Strehl ratios of the compensated images can vary considerably (between 2% – 90%). In addition, residual errors in tilt compensation due to the source signal strength can further degrade the image quality. Thus, AO compensated imaging genearally requires some post-processing to extract the maximum possible information. As long as the PSF for the imaging process is stationary, then standard deconvolution algorithms can be applied. These algorithms have been recently developed and applied to Hubble Space Telescope imaging and include maximum-likelihood, maximum-entropy and pixon-based algorithms, etc.[1].

Deconvolution from Wave-Front Sensing (DWFS) has been investigated both through laboratory and field experiments as a method to produce high resolution images from ground based telescopes.1,2,3 This technique has sometimes been referred to as Speclde Holography. With this technique a short exposure focal plane image is recorded simultaneously with an estimate of the atmospheric wave-front. The wave-front estimate is used to calculate an optical transfer function (OTF) for the atmosphere. This OTF estimate is then used in a deconvolution algorithm to correct the focal plane image. A synoptic sketch of a DWFS instrument is shown in figure 1.
