Abstract
This paper considers the use of an adaptive optical system for compensating aberrations of a laser radiation wavefront. Bimorph mirrors are used as correctors, and the wavefront is measured by a Shack-Hartmann sensor. Disadvantages of this adaptive system and ways to overcome them are discussed.
