Scientific paper

Limiting magnitude of A.O. reference stars is set by wavefront sensor
intrinsic noise. Recently available avalanche intensified CCD detectors
allow single photon event detection (photon counting) virtually free
from readout noise. The paper describes a program started in spring
2002, aiming to use a Marconi L3CCD as a wavefront sensor for A.O.
