Techniques developed during the last few decades to overcome atmospheric image degradation (including passive methods, speckle interferometry in particular, and active methods such as adaptive optics), are highlighted. Also discussed are high resolution sensors, image processing, and the astronomical results obtained with these techniques. 606 $aImaging systems in astronomy 606 $aTelescopes 615 0$aImaging systems in astronomy. 615 0$aTelescopes. 676 $a522/.2 700 $aSaha$b Swapan K$01156379 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910809413503321 996 $aDiffraction-limited imaging with large and moderate telescopes$94127171 997 $aUNINA
