SUMMARY:First on-sky results with the CANARY multi-object AO demonstrator o
 n the WHT
DESCRIPTION:First on-sky results with the CANARY multi-object AO demonstrat
 or on the WHT\nDr. Richard Myers\n\nCANARY is a technical demonstrator for
  the proposed EAGLE instrument for European ELT. EAGLE will have twenty In
 tegral Field Units patrolling a 5 arcminute field and requires a new form 
 of adaptive optics to provide the required image quality for its 0.0375 ar
 csec image sampling: Laser Guide Star Multi-Object AO. This entails severa
 l significant technical innovations: open-loop control, atmospheric tomogr
 aphy, and new calibration methods. The CANARY demonstrator is currently in
  its first, natural guide star, phase, and the first results have been obt
 ained on sky. CANARY Phase A is described and the first results are presen
 ted. The next, laser guide star, phase is then outlined.
