Astronomical Seeing at Mauna Kea and in Particular at the CFHT
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 12 April 2016
Abstract
The astronomical seeing at the CFHT is excellent. It now averages <FWHM> = 0.9" and is continuously improving as a result of seeing conservation measures in the telescope building. Our studies suggest that the average natural seeing on Mauna Kea should be ~ 0.6". Very high (<0.2") resolution imaging at the CFHT, through adaptive optics, appears feasible.
