1 Natural Guide Stars (NGS) only for Adaptive Optics (AO) on ELT Ismaning - Feb 28th 2013 by R. Ragazzoni, C. Arcidiacono, M. Bergomi, M. Dima, J. Farinato, D. Magrin, L. Marafatto, V. Viotto
2 Why NGSs for AO on ELT...? Because are cheaper than LGSs Because lim mag of Pyramid WFS pushed the limits of AO... Because the patrol field of E-ELT is huge Because the rays from LGSs will arrive nevertheless from a similarly skewed angle Because NGSs are less invasive then LGS Because MCAO can be extended a little into Global MCAO and making this true...

Locally closed loop WFSs makes Pyramids working in (almost) closed loop These devices (we called Very Linear VL- WFSs) works around non zero Concpetually is exactly the same problem as MOAO NGSs are less invasive in the scientific focal plane Stars 10arcmin FoV Science focal plane

52 MCAO on 10 arcmin (probably with 5+DMs) would works fine...
53 GMCAO on 10 arcmin compensating only the central 2 arcmin...!!!
54 Conclusions GMCAO can be used as back-up plan or......as performance mitigator (cyrrus, LGS failure...) and can coexists with LGSs. Performance assessment expected by AO4ELT3 in Florence late May
