Scientific paper

A tracking system that stabilizes atmospheric and instrumental image motion has been tested at the vacuum tower telescope of the National Solar Observatory at Sacramento Peak. The system locks anywhere on the sun, using solar granulation or other small scale structures as tracers. A matrix diode array rapidly scans the scene of interest; pictures are cross-correlated in real time with a previously recorded reference image of the same area on the sun.
