Comparing DIMM Seeing to FORS Image Quality

ATACAMA WORKSHOP, Ithaca NY

DIMM converts image motion into large telescope seeing with the assumption of an infinite outer scale of the turbulence. UT images turned out about 10% better than predicted by DIMM, confirming the finite character of the outer scale.

Comparison of DIMM seeing (Y axis), with FORS Science Verification (SV) Image Quality (X axis) as processed by the SV team, corrected for zenith and 500nm.
