Simple optimization to find conic mirror foci
Question I am using OSLO-EDU and I am having trouble understanding how to perform an optimization in OSLO. I think it would help me if you can demonstrate a very simple optimization task: How do I use OSLO to optimize the radius and conic of a mirrored surface to solve for a specific set of foci...
SCHWARZ.LEN - A SCHWARZSCHILD OBJECTIVE
Schwarz is a catoptric (i.e. containing only mirrors) system often used as a microscope objective. The system shows the use of reflective imaging surfaces, as well as the use of a star command to enter data for a common system. The Schwarzschild objective is a convex-concave mirror system in which...
