Fried parameter
The Fried parameter or Fried's coherence length (commonly designated as r_0) is a measure of the quality of optical transmission through the atmosphere due to random inhomogeneities in the atmosphere's refractive index. In practice, such inhomogeneities are primarily due to tiny variations in temperature (and thus density) on smaller spatial scales resulting from random turbulent mixing of larger temperature variations on larger spatial scales as first described by Kolmogorov. The Fried parameter has units of length and is typically expressed in centimeters. It is defined as the diameter of a circular area over which the rms wavefront aberration due to passage through the atmosphere is equal to 1 radian. As such, imaging from telescopes with apertures much smaller than r_0 is less affected by atmospheric seeing than diffraction due to the telescope's small aperture. However, the imaging resolution of telescopes with apertures much larger than r_0 (thus including all professional telescopes) will be limited by the turbulent atmosphere, preventing the instruments from approaching the diffraction limit.
Although not explicitly written in his article, the Fried parameter at wavelength \lambda can be expressed in terms of the so-called atmospheric turbulence strength C_n^2 (which is actually a function of temperature fluctuations as well as turbulence) along z' the path of the starlight :

r_0 = \left (0.423 \, k^2 \, \int_

where k= 2 \pi / \lambda is the
wavenumber. If not specified, a reference to the Fried parameter in astronomy is understood to refer to a path in the vertical direction. When observing at a zenith angle \zeta, the line of sight passes through an air column which is \sec \zeta times longer, producing a greater disturbance in the wavefront quality. This results in a smaller r_0, so that in terms of the ''vertical'' path ''z'', the operative Fried parameter r_0 is reduced according to:

r_0 = \left (0.423 \, k^2 \, \sec \zeta \int_ = (\cos \zeta)^ \ r_0^.

At locations selected for observatories, typical values for r_0 range from 10 cm for average seeing to 20 cm under excellent seeing conditions. The angular resolution is then limited to about \lambda / r_0 due to the effect of the atmosphere, whereas the
resolution due to diffraction by a circular aperture of diameter D is generally given as 1.22 \lambda / D. Since professional telescopes have diameters D \gg r_0, they can only obtain an image resolution approaching their diffraction limits by employing adaptive optics.

Because r_0 is a function of wavelength, varying as \lambda ^, its value is only meaningful in relation to a specified wavelength. When not stated explicitly, the wavelength is typically understood to be \lambda = 0.5 \mu m.
