NAOS, the first AO system of the VLT: on-sky performance

TL;DR: NAOS-CONICA as mentioned in this paper is the first adaptive optics system installed at the VLT 8m telescopes and it was designed, manufactured and tested by a french Consortium under an ESO contract, to provide compensated images to the high angular resolution IR spectro-imaging camera.
Journal ArticleDOI

Detection of the Schwarzschild precession in the orbit of the star S2 near the Galactic centre massive black hole

TL;DR: In this article, the first detection of the GR Schwarzschild precession (SP) in S2's orbit was reported, which is a kink between the pre-and post-pericentre directions of motion ≈±1 year around pericentre passage.
Journal Article

GRAVITY: observing the universe in motion

TL;DR: GRAVITY as mentioned in this paper is the second generation Very Large Telescope Interferometer instrument for precision narrow-angle as trometry and interferometric imaging, which will push the sensitivity and accuracy of high-resolution imaging far beyond what is offered today.
Journal Article

Laser guide star in adaptive optics: the tilt determination problem.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors compare the performance of adaptive optics correction using natural or artificial (laser) reference star, taking into account the photon noise and the anisoplanatic errors.
