Wavefront sensing and phase retrieval for astronomical imaging
Images of astronomical objects captured by ground-based telescopes are distorted by the earth's atmosphere. The atmosphere consists of random time-varying layers of air of differing density and hence refractive index. These refractive index fluctuations cause wavefronts that propagate through t...
