Abstract | Sky background is one of the main noise sources in astronomy observation. Most of the telescopes work well in nighttime with low sky background, but do not work anymore in daytime with strong sky background. Polarization filtering is a critical method that can be used to suppress the sky background and improve the signal noise ratio (SNR) of object signal. Experimental device with polarization filtering technology was constructed in 1.8m adaptive optics (AO) telescope of Yunnan observatory, to identify the effect of polarization filtering technology. Experimental results indicate that the SNR (ratio of object energy to noise's mean square deviation) of stellar objects could be improved to 1 to 3 times at different observation conditions, which is significative to star detection in daytime. Experimental results also indicate that polarization filtering technology is effective and important in observing different kinds of stellar objects in daytime condition. Furthermore, it also makes it possible to apply our AO system in daytime in future.; Sky background is one of the main noise sources in astronomy observation.
