先进多孔径视宁度廓线仪数值模拟研究

先进多孔径视宁度廓线仪(A-MASP)由两台小望远镜组成,通过望远镜观测太阳表面的米粒结构进行日间湍流廓线测量.两台望远镜之间的相对指向误差可以通过改进的湍流廓线测量公式消除.数值仿真研究表明,使用消除抖动的湍流廓线计算公式后,发现A-MASP对地表附近的湍流不敏感.当两台望远镜距离为0.4 m时,无法测量400 m以下的湍流.在A-MASP中,采样高度的不均匀分布会造成测量结果的失真,可通过等效采样高度的计算方法,对该失真进行修正.通过100层相位屏对大气湍流的仿真,结果表明当望远镜距离不同时,湍流廓线测量的结果各有侧重.当距离较近时(0.4 m),A-MASP对0.4–5 km的湍流廓线测量精度较高.当距离为1.2 m和2.0 m时,对5 km以上的湍流廓线测量较准确.

Fast compression and reconstruction of astronomical images based on compressed sensing

With the fast increase in the resolution of astronomical images, the question of how to process and transfer such large images has become a key issue in astronomy. We propose a new real-time compression and fast reconstruction algorithm for astronomical images based on compressive sensing techniques. We first reconstruct the original signal with fewer measurements, according to its compressibility. Then,based on the characteristics of astronomical images, we apply Daubechies orthogonal wavelets to obtain a sparse representation. A matrix representing a random Fourier ensemble is used to obtain a sparse representation in a lower dimensional space. For reconstructing the image, we propose a novel minimum total variation with block adaptive sensing to balance the accuracy and computation time. Our experimental results show that the proposed algorithm can efficiently reconstruct colorful astronomical images with high resolution and improve the applicability of compressed sensing.

Astronomical image data compression by morphological skeleton transformation

Astronomical instruments currently provide a large amount of data. Nowadays, a large part of these data are image frames obtained with receivers of increasing size. The scan of large astronomical plates using fast microdensitometers gives image frames of over 30000×30000 pixels. More and more often, images are transmitted over a network in order to control the observations, to process the data, and to examine or to fill a data bank. The time taken for archiving, the cost of communication, the available memory given by magnetic tapes, and the limited bandwidth of transmission lines are reasons which lead us to examine the data compression of astronomical images.The astronomical image has the characteristic of being a set of astronomical sources in the sky background whose values are not zero. We are, in fact, only interested in the astronomical sources. Once a suitable detection is made, we generally want a compression without any distorsion. In this paper, we present a method which can be adapted for this purpose. It is based on morphological skeleton transformations. The experimental results show that it can give us an efficient compression. Moreover, the flexibility of choosing a structure element adapted to different images and the simplicity of implementation are other advantages of this method. Because of these characteristics, different compression applications may be treated.     

Modelling the optical turbulence boiling and its effect on finite-exposure differential image motion

It is usually accepted that whenever dealing with astronomical observation through the atmosphere, the optical turbulence temporal evolution can be sufficiently described with the so-called frozen turbulence hypothesis. In this model, turbulence is supposed to be equivalent to a series of solid phase screens that slide horizontally in front of the observation field of view. Experimental evidence shows, however, that an additional physical process must be taken into account when describing the temporal behaviour of the optical turbulence. In fact, while translating above the observer, turbulence undergoes a proper temporal evolution and affects differently the astronomical and, more specifically, the astrometric observations. The proper temporal evolution of the turbulence-induced optical turbulence observable quantities is here called the optical turbulence boiling. We are proposing through this paper a theoretical approach to the modelling of the optical turbulence temporal evolution when the turbulent layer horizontal translation and the optical turbulence boiling are both involved. The model we propose, as a working hypothesis though, has a direct relevance to differential astrometry because of its explicit dependence upon the optical turbulence temporal evolution. It can also be generalized to other techniques of high angular resolution astronomical observation through the atmospheric turbulence.     

Evaluation of the Possibilities of the STV CCD Detector for the Observations of Planets

The results of planetary observations performed with a new CCD detector are presented. The available firmware for collecting a great number of electronic images and the high quantum efficiency of the employed CCD make it possible to observe objects the visibility of which is limited by the short duration of astronomical phenomena. Among such tasks are, for instance, the taking of a large number of images of Mercury by the short exposure method. With a high quantum efficiency of the light detector, short exposure makes it possible to appreciably reduce the blurring of astronomical images caused by the atmospheric instability. This study was performed at the Abastumani Astrophysical Observatory of the Republic of Georgia early in November 2001.

The entropic prior for distributions with positive and negative values

The maximum entropy method has been used to reconstruct images in a wide range of astronomical fields, but in its traditional form it is restricted to the reconstruction of strictly positive distributions. We present an extension of the standard method to include distributions that can take both positive and negative values. The method may therefore be applied to a much wider range of astronomical reconstruction problems. In particular, we derive the form of the entropy for positive/negative distributions and use direct counting arguments to find the form of the entropic prior. We also derive the measure on the space of positive/negative distributions, which allows the definition of probability integrals and hence the proper quantification of errors.
