摘要

Multi-object adaptive optics (MOAO) has been demonstrated by the CANARYinstrument on the William Herschel Telescope. However, for proposed MOAOsystems on the next generation Extremely Large Telescopes, such as EAGLE, manychallenges remain. Here we investigate requirements that MOAO operation placeson deformable mirrors (DMs) using a full end-to-end Monte-Carlo AO simulationcode. By taking into consideration a prior global ground-layer (GL) correction,we show that actuator density for the MOAO DMs can be reduced with littleperformance loss. We note that this reduction is only possible with theaddition of a GL DM, whose order is greater than or equal to that of theoriginal MOAO mirrors. The addition of a GL DM of lesser order does not affectsystem performance (if tip/tilt star sharpening is ignored). We also quantifythe maximum mechanical DM stroke requirements (3.5 $\mu$m desired) and providetolerances for the DM alignment accuracy, both lateral (to within an eighth ofa sub-aperture) and rotational (to within 0.2$^\circ$). By presenting resultsover a range of laser guide star asterism diameters, we ensure that theseresults are equally applicable for laser tomographic AO systems. We provide theopportunity for significant cost savings to be made in the implementation ofMOAO systems, resulting from the lower requirement for DM actuator density.
