Dealing with the cigar: preliminary performance estimation of an INGOT WFS
Date Issued
2018
Abstract
As LGSs come from an excited cigar-shaped region in the sodium layer, they do not behave as point-like sources, therefore a new class of WFSs has been proposed to account for such elongation: the Ingot WFSs, the LGS-counterpart of a pyramid WFS. As they appear to be very promising, here we summarize the main reasons and goal of such a LGS-dedicated WFS and present the concept behind the code developed to produce numerical simulations, exploring the space of parameters. We report different approaches for the approximation of the extended source and the model adopted for the ingot prism simulation.
