However, partial illumination of the layers at which the deformable mirrors are conjugated results in incomplete information about the full turbulence field. We report on a working solution to this difficulty for layer-oriented MCAO, including laboratory and on-sky demonstration with the LINC-NIRVANA instrument at the Large Binocular Telescope. This approach has proven to be simple and stable.ELETTRONICOenOperation of a layer-oriented multiconjugate adaptive optics system in the partial illumination regimeArticle10.1117/1.JATIS.5.4.0490022-s2.0-85073736392000510649500027https://www.spiedigitallibrary.org/journals/Journal-of-Astronomical-Telescopes-Instruments-and-Systems/volume-5/issue-04/049002/Operation-of-a-layer-oriented-multiconjugate-adaptive-optics-system-in/10.1117/1.JATIS.5.4.049002.full?SSO=110.1117/1.JATIS.5.4.049002FIS/05 - ASTRONOMIA E ASTROFISICA
