Abstract
Iterative physical deconvolution is used for point spread function (psf) calibration of a wide range of astronomical imagery obtained in visible (CCD) through near- and mid-infrared (NICMOS and MIRAC) wavelengths. Psf complications, ranging from those of uncorrected speckle images at large telescopes to those of contemporary high-performance adaptive optics, are accomodated by this algorithm which makes use of a priori physical information about the imaging system. Examples of diffraction-limited and “super-resolved” results are presented for a variety of different astronomical objects.
