Abstract

Investigation of the properties of atmospheric turbulence which produce wave-front errors are essential to determine the number of control points and the control speed of adaptive optics system. The spatial properties are generally believed to be described by 5/3 law of Kolmogorov's turbulence theory. This has been experimentally verified in various manners1. On the other hand very few measurements of time evolution of the turbulence have been made, in spite of the importance for determining the control speed2.
