Geometric Optics Theory and Design of Astronomical Optical Systems Using Mathematica® /
This text, now in its second edition, presents the mathematical background needed to design many optical combinations that are used in astronomical telescopes and cameras. It uses a novel approach to third-order aberration theory based on Fermat's principle and the use of particular optical pat...
