• PHARO: A Near‐Infrared Camera for the Palomar Adaptive Optics System (2001, methodology): “The angle is somewhat larger than predicted by theory, indicating that the altitude h0 of the dominant seeing layer is less than 1 km, similar to the findings at Mauna Kea observatories ( Roddier 1999, p. 50 ).”
• Seeing Improvement with Ground‐Layer Adaptive Optics (2004, background): “Adaptive optics (AO) is a powerful technique for overcoming atmospheric “seeing” and reaching diffraction-limited resolution on ground-based telescopes (Roddier 1999). However, despite considerable investment and technological maturity of AO, the majority of observations at large telescopes are stil”
