I will briefly present the unique capabilities of LN and then go on to describe the novel science these capabilities will enable; from probing the formation sites of stars, finding hitherto illusive intermediate mass black holes, and investigating the earliest epochs of formation of the most massive galaxies.[[BR]][[BR]]Presentation: English                  [[BR]][https://svn.mpia.de/trac/gulli/att/raw-attachment/wiki/AlteVortraege2016S1/2016-04-01_Science_LN.pdf Slides: German][[BR]]Questions: English, German (will be translated) ||

 || '''15.04.2016''' || '''Alexander Sivitilli''' || '''Laser Alignment Teleskop[[BR]][[BR]]''' The Advanced Rayleigh guided Ground layer adaptive Optics System (ARGOS) is currently being commissioned at the Large Binocular Telescope (LBT). This AO set-up is unique in that it harnesses six artificial laser guide stars to correct wavefronts over a wide 4' x 4' field. Due to telescope flexure and maintenance, lasers can become misaligned from the wavefront sensors of ARGOS, requiring frequent manual realignment. In order to save time in both commissioning and operation of ARGOS, an automatic alignment of the lasers with the wavefront sensors is needed. [[BR]][[BR]]This presentation describes the construction and implementation of a Laser Alignment Telescope (LAT) to acquire images of the launched lasers in addition to the accompanying Smart Laser Alignment (SLA) algorithm that automatically identifies and aligns the lasers to their respective wavefront sensors at which point ARGOS takes control.[[BR]][[BR]]Presentation: English[[BR]][https://svn.mpia.de/trac/gulli/att/raw-attachment/wiki/AlteVortraege2016S1/2016-04-01_LAT.pdf Slides: German][[BR]]Questions: English, German ||
