Scientific paper

This report outlines the focus of the development of advanced adaptive optics at the University of Arizona, Steward Observatory's Center for Astronomical Adaptive Optics (CAAO). The main focus of the development effort has been the design and development of the world's first adaptive secondary and control system for the 6.5 m MMT facility in Southern Arizona. The system is now undergoing extensive testing at the Steward Observatory Mirror Laboratory prior to integration with the MMT in the Fall of 2001.
