Abstrak

Adaptive Optics (AO) systems have become integral for ground-based astronomy. Based on the scientific case, there are various flavours of AO systems. Measuring the turbulence strength profile ($C_N^2(h)$) and other site characteristics is essential before selecting a site or implementing certain types of AO systems. We used an iterative deconvolution procedure on long-exposure H-$α$ images of the Sun to determine the isoplanatic patch size during the daytime. Then, we determined the relationship between turbulence along different directions and also obtained an analytical estimate of the $C_N^2(h)$ profile.
