Les développements récents visent d’une part à augmenter la qualité de la correction afin d’imager des exoplanètes, et d’autre part à étendre le champ corrigeable. [...] l'OA [optique adaptative] peut souffrir de deux limitations importantes dues à la luminosité limitée des sources astronomiques et aux effets d’anisoplanétisme [...] En effet, l'AFO [analyseur de front d’onde] doit détecter une certaine quantité de photons pour effectuer correctement la mesure. Il faut donc disposer d’une source suffisamment brillante, dite étoile guide. Souvent l'objet observé est trop faiblement lumineux, il faut alors chercher une étoile brillante environnante mais hélas à proximité immédiate à cause de l'anisoplanétisme, réduisant sérieusement la couverture du ciel. 2, record 1, French, - %C3%A9toile%20guide

C'est à l'approche du Soleil que les glaces se subliment dans le vide, entraînant les poussières du noyau. La comète devient alors visible. Tandis que la vapeur très légère reste confinée dans la coma, les poussières sont entraînées par la pression de radiation solaire dans la direction opposée au Soleil, formant une queue caractéristique. [...] La forme de la queue ionique s’explique par la formation d’une onde de choc. À l'intérieur de ce front l'écoulement du vent solaire est freiné par l'atmosphère de la comète et produit des turbulences qui prennent l'aspect de cordes, de nœuds et de filaments qui différencient la queue ionique de la queue de poussières. En dehors du front les ions associés à la comète sont entraînés par l'écoulement général, guidés par les lignes de force engendrées par le noyau en mouvement. Les ions s’échappent ainsi de la coma pratiquement dans la direction anti-solaire en formant une longue queue distincte. 5, record 4, French, - direction%20anti%2Dsolaire

The resolution of the wavefront measurement is rapidly becoming a significant issue in the world of wavefront driven refractive surgery. Accurate measurement of higher order aberrations is fundamentally dependant on the resolution of the measurement. Without adequate resolution, an instrument will report the aberration at a significantly lower magnitude than reality, or potentially ignore the feature completely. ... The Complete Ophthalmic Analysis System (COAS) is a Shack-Hartmann based wavefront aberrometer. Currently in use around the world in leading research institutions as well as for customized ablation procedures, COAS provides the highest resolution wavefront measurement available. 3, record 5, English, - wavefront%20measurement

During the LASIK procedure, the laser can be programmed in a variety of different ways. Initially we utilized only the refraction to guide the programming of the laser. ... Two other options which are available are wavefront-optimized and wavefront-guided laser treatments. ... Wavefront-guided treatments utilize a device to measure your eyes' wave of light -- that is, it measures the exact prescription of your eye across many points throughout your pupil. ...

The aspect angle ... can have a significant influence on the appearance of radar imagery, especially when features in the scene have an organized linear structure, such as agricultural crops or geological structures. When a radar's illumination is oriented perpendicular to geologic features such as faults, lineaments and outcrops, [there is] increased contrast and shadowing of the features in the image results. This is a favourable aspect angle for the image interpreter, as terrain is enhanced. In agricultural applications, fields imaged from different aspect angles may result in different tones on the image because of row or planting direction.

The Detonation Pressure is a measure of the pressure in the detonation wave front. It is a function of the (velocity of detonation) and the density of an explosive, and is therefore a very important property, especially in hard rock. At the point where the detonation wave has just completed its passage through the column of explosive and the gases have expanded to fill the borehole and are available to commence their work, the borehole pressure is at its peak value. 2, record 44, English, - detonation%20pressure

La pression de détonation, sur le front de l'onde de choc, est proportionnelle à la masse volumique, la vitesse de détonation et la vitesse des gaz de détonation, et, comme celle-ci est elle-même proportionnelle à la vitesse de détonation, au carré de celle-ci. Elle est au moins de l'ordre d’une dizaine de mégapascals.(...) Les discontinuités de pression et de température, caractéristiques de l'onde de choc se retrouvent dans le milieu environnant : une faible partie seulement de l'énergie est réfléchie dans la matière explosive(...), mais la plus grande partie est transmise, en fonction d’ailleurs des impédances soniques des différents milieux. 2, record 44, French, - pression%20de%20d%C3%A9tonation

L'explosif travaille ainsi à proximité d’une surface de dégagement contre laquelle l'onde explosive se réfléchit, soumettant la roche à des contraintes de traction à laquelle elle résiste mal; la charge est plus concentrée au pied des gradins, sous-cavant ainsi la partie supérieure qui s’effondre en partie sous son propre poids. 3, record 46, French, - gradin
