The Ingot wavefront sensor was thought to overcome some limitations due to the use of artificial sources instead of natural ones: it is designed to cope with the typical elongation of Sodium Laser Guide stars that will be used by the ELTs. Here we present the preliminary tests we performed to properly set up an end-to-end simulator, in order to evaluate the performance of such a device. We describe the different configurations considered and the assumptions we made, discussing also some computational problems we faced building up the tool. We also show the results of the first simulations obtained closing the loop with a mock ELT telescope.ELETTRONICOenConference paper10.1117/12.25621902-s2.0-85100025661https://www.spiedigitallibrary.org/conference-proceedings-of-spie/11448/2562190/Evaluating-the-performance-of-an-Ingot-wavefront-sensor-for-the/10.1117/12.2562190.full?SSO=1https://api.elsevier.com/content/abstract/scopus_id/851000256612020SPIE11448E..3IPFIS/05 - ASTRONOMIA E ASTROFISICAERC sectors::Physical Sciences and Engineering::PE9 Universe sciences: astro-physics/chemistry/biology; solar systems; stellar, galactic and extragalactic astronomy, planetary systems, cosmology, space science, instrumentation::PE9_17 Instrumentation – telescopes, detectors and techniques
