由于新的大规模天文观测大大增加了目标物体和发现的数量,因此,对有效的后续观测的要求至关重要。自适应光学成像补偿了地球湍流大气层造成的图像模糊效应,对这些调查至关重要,但现有系统的稀缺性、复杂性和高需求限制了它们跟踪大量目标的可用性。为了满足这一需求,我们设计并实施了Robo-AO,这是一种完全自主的激光自适应光学和成像系统,每晚可以对200多个物体进行常规成像,在可见光波长下的敏锐度比通常在地面上的敏锐度高10倍。通过大大提高1-3米级望远镜的角分辨率、灵敏度和效率,我们消除了对当前和未来大型天文调查发现进行后续跟踪的一个主要障碍。
As new large-scale astronomical surveys greatly increase the number of objects targeted and discoveries made, the requirement for efficient follow-up observations is crucial. Adaptive optics imaging, which compensates for the image-blurring effects of Earth's turbulent atmosphere, is essential for these surveys, but the scarcity, complexity and high demand of current systems limit their availability for following up large numbers of targets. To address this need, we have engineered and implemented Robo-AO, a fully autonomous laser adaptive optics and imaging system that routinely images over 200 objects per night with an acuity 10 times sharper at visible wavelengths than typically possible from the ground. By greatly improving the angular resolution, sensitivity, and efficiency of 1–3 m class telescopes, we have eliminated a major obstacle in the follow-up of the discoveries from current and future large astronomical surveys.
