The Guieloa Adaptive Optics System for the Observatorio Astronómico Nacional

We describe progress in the construction of an adaptive optics system for the 2.1-meter telescope of the ObservatorioAstronómico Nacional on Sierra San Pedro Mártir. The system will use a 19 element bimorph deformablemirror mounted on an articulated platform and a curvature wavefront sensor with nat...
