Abstract
Research, Experiment, and Validation of Adaptive Optics with a Legacy Telescope (REVOLT) is a single conjugate adaptive optics system (SCAO) located on the 1.2-meter McKellar telescope at the Dominion Astrophysical Observatory (DAO), Victoria, Canada. REVOLT is used to perform on-sky testing of key adaptive optics (AO) technologies developed at NRC Herzberg Astronomy & Astrophysics (HAA). The REVOLT project successfully demonstrated closed-loop SCAO with the Herzberg Extensible Adaptive Realtime Toolkit (HEART) and First Light Imaging’s C-Blue One detector. In this proceeding, we present a wavefront error budget analysis of REVOLT using results obtained on-sky, in a lab setting, and simulation. We find good agreement with the sum of expected error terms and the on-sky performance, and we comment on potential sources of additional wavefront errors and potential improvements to the system which may improve overall performance.

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 it
