Paper Abstract
We have made high order (32x32 subaperture) Shack-Hartmann wavefront sensor observations of binary stars
with separations of approximately 20 arcseconds using the University of Hawaii 2.2 m telescope. We present
preliminary results of a Slope Detection and Ranging (SLODAR) analysis of the data yielding measurements of
turbulence strength, wind velocity and velocity dispersion as a function of altitude, with approximately 500 m
vertical resolution. The aim of the investigation is to explore the validity of the Taylor frozen flow approximation
and the implications for layer-oriented predictive AO reconstruction algorithms.
