Control of Dome Seeing
Abstract
At the best observatory sites, image quality is usually dominated by dome seeing. Various methods are being used to monitor the thermal environment and to locate and eliminate remaining heat sources. Temperature readings from sensors located throughout the dome and telescope are recorded continuously by a computer-based data logger.
