Abstract
Large telescopes are developing, and promoted by new technological developments. In order to study the method of mirror seeing detection for large aperture optical system, the relationship between mirror seeing and slope information is derived first. In order to evaluate the results more comprehensively, the normalized point source sensitivity was introduced to evaluate the results. Finally, according to the previous analysis, the experiment was carried out. The change normalized point source sensitivity under different conditions is calculated. By comparing with RMS of wavefront, the better statistical characteristic of sensitivity of normalized point source was verified.
