For decades, scientists have struggled to see the outermost layer of the Sun, called the corona, with enough detail to unlock ...

Astronomers Discover 'Cosmic Fossil' Galaxy That Remained 'Frozen in Time' for Billions of Years in Space Fossils are a great ...

Scientists have produced the finest images of the Sun's corona to date. To make these high-resolution images and movies, the team developed a new 'coronal adaptive optics' system that removes blur ...

Adaptive optics relies on wave-front sensors to measure aberrations in light coming into a telescope, camera, or similar system, and then uses deformable mirrors to correct those aberrations.

WILMINGTON, NEW CASTLE, DE, UNITED STATES, July 3, 2025 /EINPresswire.com/ -- According to a new report published by Allied Market Research, titled, "Adaptive Optics Market Size, Share, Competitive ...

Texas astronomers are part of the effort to construct the Giant Magellan Telescope – an effort that will bring a new level of ...

The adaptive optics system here has allowed researchers to improve the resolution from the 1000 km resolution of other solar telescopes down to nearly the theoretical limit of this telescope—63 km.

The Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Milestone recognizes decades of innovation that has helped shape modern ...

The University of Arizona’s Magellan Adaptive Optics Xtreme instrument, combined with a six-and-a-half meter ground-based telescope, has imaged protoplanets in sharp detail.By capturing images ...

Adaptive optics systems utilize advanced computer control to manipulate optical components in order to improve the fidelity of optical measurements. In this project, the student will work with ...

A new adaptive optics system has enabled the clearest imaging of the sun’s corona to date, achieving 63 km resolution by correcting atmospheric turbulence in real time.

“The new coronal adaptive optics system closes this decades-old gap and delivers images of coronal features at 63 kilometers resolution—the theoretical limit of the 1.6-meter Goode Solar Telescope,” ...
