Abstract:A wavefront sensor (WFS) is the key element of ground and space-based adaptive telescopes that provides a high accuracy and reliability of the operation of an adaptive mirror control system. We developed a new WFS in the scope of the project of a 3.2 m adaptive astronomical telescope with a wide angular field of view [1]. It has two parts - channels: an autocollimation-point sensor and interferometric (or Hartmann) one. The WFS is to be installed at the autocollimation point of low efficiency hologram structur… Show more
