Scientific paper

We report on the calibration and field test results obtained with the ESO/Meudon Adaptive Optics System, Adonis. This 7x7, 50-cm subaperture system is now routinely in use at the ESO La Silla 3.6-m telescope, offered to astronomers together with two IR cameras covering the 1-5-micron wavelength range. The calibration activity summarized here has investigated the field performances achieved so far with natural guide stars using either the Reticon or the EBCCD wavefront sensors.
