The Effects of Atmospheric Turbulence on Astronomical Observations
Turbulence in the Earth’s atmosphere is a major obstacle to the detection of planets with coronographic and interferometric methods from the ground. It limits the contrast achievable with high-resolution imaging and the precision of astrometric measurements. Atmospheric turbulence also determines many of the key design parameters of adaptive optics systems and interferometers: site selection, o...
متن کاملAtmospheric Turbulence Effects on Wind-Turbine Wakes: An LES Study
A numerical study of atmospheric turbulence effects on wind-turbine wakes is presented. Large-eddy simulations of neutrally-stratified atmospheric boundary layer flows through stand-alone wind turbines were performed over homogeneous flat surfaces with four different aerodynamic roughness lengths. Emphasis is placed on the structure and characteristics of turbine wakes in the cases where the in...
متن کاملAn exact method for orbit determinations of an astrometric binary
Here we present an exact method for orbit determinations of an astrometric binary for which the primary star can be seen but the companion is unseen like a black hole or an extra-solar planet. Since the laws of the motion of celestial objects were discovered by Kepler in the seventeenth century, many attempts have been made to solve a fundamental problem of how to determine the orbital elements...
متن کاملOn the estimation of atmospheric turbulence layers ?
The knowledge of the characteristics of the atmospheric turbulence is of fundamental importance in order to improve the performances of the adaptive optics systems in the next generation of telescopes. Starting from the statistical description of the turbulence, we derive a random field spatial model of the turbulent phase. Then we use this spatial statistical model to compute the spatial innov...
متن کاملMeasurement of Atmospheric Turbulence
How light and sound propagate through the optically clear atmosphere has been of interest to children, philosophers, scientists, and engineers since antiquity. The quantum leap in our understanding of wave propagation through the turbulent atmosphere, however, came with the pioneering work by Valeryan Tatarskii and collaborators in the 1950’s and 1960’s. Their work enhanced dramatically our abi...
