Description

This book examines how aberrations arise in optical systems and how they affect optical wave propagation and imaging based on geometrical and physical optics. It focuses on concepts, physical insight, and mathematical simplicity, intended for students and professionals. Figures and drawings illustrate concepts and enhance readability. This book is useful as a textbook, reference, or tutorial.Contents - Preface - Acknowledgments - Symbols and Notation - Gaussian Optics - Radiometry of Imaging - Optical Aberrations - Geometrical Point-Spread Function - Calculation of Primary Aberrations: Refracting Systems - Calculation of Primary Aberrations: Reflecting and Catadioptric Systems - Calculation of Primary Aberrations: Perturbed Optical Systems - Bibliography - Index
