Adaptive optics telemetry tools for REVOLT: a deep dive into telemetry
Bibliographic record
Abstract
REVOLT (Research, Experiment and Validation of Adaptive Optics with a Legacy Telescope) is an adaptive optics (AO) system on the 1.2-m telescope at the Herzberg Astronomy and Astrophysics Research Centre which is intended to demonstrate various AO developments, technologies, and algorithms. This AO system is a platform to test the Herzberg Extensible Adaptive optics Real-time Toolkit (HEART) where new AO control features can be exercised on-sky ahead of deployment on a facility class instrument. In this paper, we present various analysis of the telemetry produced by HEART and its various wavefront-sensing arms that enable both open- and closed-loop operation including a closed-loop Shack-Hartmann wavefront sensor, a closed-loop pyramid wavefront sensor, and an open-loop Shack-Hartmann. Employing REVOLT’s single-conjugate AO configuration, we look at extracting the Fried parameter and other atmospheric parameters from the telemetry and compare the results to an in-situ Ring Image Next Generation Scintillation Sensor (RINGSS) atmospheric seeing monitor and optical turbulence profiler. Finally, we discuss the AO system’s rejection-transfer function and overall system’s performance.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
