After the production, from Marconi Applied Technologies, of new intensifier CCD sensors able to detect very low level of light, a collaboration has been established with the Arcetri Observatory to test these sensors and develop their use as imaging photon-counters to be used as wavefront detectors for adaptive optics systems. This activity started in October 2001 and is carried out in collaboration with I. Foppiani and G. Cosentino (Dip. Astron. BO).
At present the optical laboratory for testing the equipment has been set up.
