最近对多孔径闪烁传感器与广义闪烁探测和测距剖面仪技术之间的比较进行的研究表明，这两种仪器提供的结果之间存在重大差异。MASS已被广泛用于未来下一代巨型望远镜（即欧洲极大望远镜，三十米望远镜（TMT）和巨型麦哲伦望远镜（GMT））的最近现场测试活动，并且仍然用于监测世界级天文站点的条件，以及提供自由大气湍流轮廓，以提供自适应光学性能模拟。在本文中，我们探讨了一种不同的方法在MASS和广义SCIDAR技术之间的比较与以前的研究，为了提供一种方法，使用在欧洲南方观测帕拉纳尔天文台积累的MASS数据库在自适应光学模拟。
Recent studies on the comparison between the Multi Aperture Scintillation Sensor (MASS) and Generalized Scintillation Detection and Ranging (G-SCIDAR) profiler techniques have suggested significant discrepancies between the results delivered by the two instruments. MASS has been largely used in the recent site testing campaigns for the future next generation giant telescopes [i.e. the European Extremely Large Telescope, the Thirty Meter Telescope (TMT) and the Giant Magellan Telescope (GMT)] and is still used to monitor the conditions of world-class astronomical sites, as well as to deliver free atmosphere turbulence profiles to feed Adaptive Optics performance simulations. In this paper, we explore a different approach in the comparison between MASS and Generalized SCIDAR techniques with respect to previous studies, in order to provide a method for the use of the MASS data bases accumulated at European Southern Obseratory Paranal Observatory in Adaptive Optics simulations.
