Atmospheric scintillation at Dome C, Antarctica

Dome C, Antarctica is one of the most promising astronomical sites in the world (Fossat & Candidi 2003, and references therein). Dome C boasts low wind speeds, very cold temperatures and little precipitation. The atmospheric turbulence is very weak compared to temperate sites, leading to sub-arc...
