Active Optics in Astronomy: Freeform Mirror for the MESSIER Telescope Proposal
Active optics techniques in astronomy provide high imaging quality. This paper is dedicated to highly deformable active optics that can generate non-axisymmetric aspheric surfaces—or freeform surfaces—by use of a minimum number of actuators. The aspheric mirror is obtained from a...
