MAORY: A Multi-conjugate Adaptive Optics RelaY for the E-ELT
Abstract
MAORY provides atmospheric turbulence compensation for the E-ELT over a 2-arcminute field of view in the near-infrared. Correction performance and sky coverage are achieved by three deformable mirrors, driven by a wavefront sensing system based on laser and natural guide stars.
