Abstract
The purpose of the Advanced Electro-Optical System (AEOS) Adaptive Optical (A/O) System is to dynamically correct for atmospheric turbulence, so that a vastly improved image quality is achieved. The AEOS adaptive optical system is located directly beneath the new 3.6 meter telescope. Coude optics in the telescope transfer the ± 150 urad telescope FOV in the waveband from 0.5 to 5 µm to the A/O system.
