Scintillation Spectral Measurements.

Scintillation Spectral Measurements.

Measure the spectrum in time and space of the scintillation of the light from a star. Develop a system for moving an image so as to maintain the focal point on a photographic plate or CCD. Study the correlation of the image movement as a function of the angular separation of two stars. Use the spectral information as a method of analysing the movement and thermal properties of the moving cells in the upper atmosphere which cause the scintillation. Use the technique to carry out analysis of the turbulent structure of the air along a horizontal path across the city.
