Descripción
The Laser Guide Star Facility (LGSF) of Gran Telescopio Canarias (GTC) will be in charge of generating a Laser Guide Star (LGS) in the high atmosphere for the GTC Adaptive Optics System (GTCAO) to measure and correct the effect of the atmospheric turbulence. This proceeding analyses the thermal response of the LGS launch systems in operation under the direct action of the laser, and its interaction with respect GTC Telescope environment.
