Abstract

In this paper, we present new results obtained within Russian Science Foundation project N 15-19-20013. The project was started in the middle of 2015. It is devoted to the solution of actual problems of the optoelectronic industry on the basis of the use of adaptive optics in astronomy, laser, and other applications. Recent achievements in this industry are completely determined by the progress in priority directions of science and critical technologies. One of these directions is the design of adaptive optics (AO) systems, which allow overcoming random distortions and, thus, achieving diffraction-limited performance for systems operating in a turbulent atmosphere. We describe the progress in the development of the newest AO system for the Russian largest solar telescope, i.e., 1-m Big Solar Vacuum Telescope of the Baikal Astrophysical Observatory, and approaches to the development of such systems operating in strong day turbulence conditions.
