TOWARD PRECISION PHOTOMETRY FOR THE ELT ERA: THE DOUBLE SUBGIANT BRANCH OF NGC 1851 OBSERVED WITH THE GEMINI/GeMS MCAO SYSTEM

TOWARD PRECISION PHOTOMETRY FOR THE ELT ERA: THE DOUBLE SUBGIANT BRANCH OF NGC 1851 OBSERVED WITH THE GEMINI/GeMS MCAO SYSTEM

The Extremely Large Telescopes currently under construction have a collecting area that is an order of magnitude larger than the present largest optical telescopes. For seeing-limited observations the performance will scale as the collecting area but, with the successful use of adaptive optics, for many applications it will scale as …
