Abstract

Adaptive optics on the Keck 10 meter telescope will provide an unprecedented level of capability in highresolution ground-based astronomical imaging [1,2]. The system is designed to provide near diffraction limited imaging performance with Strehl > 0.3 n median Keck seeing of r0 = 25 cm, t0 = 10 msec at 500 nm wavelength. The system will be equipped with a 20 watt sodium laser guide star to provide nearly full sky coverage.
