Sorry if this is a duplicate - the first one I sent got held for the
moderator, as apparently my list subscription had some trouble. So, I rejoined
the list, and am resending the message.
As an exercise in learning about Oslo, and about ray tracing in general, I am
entering all the examples from Rutten and van Venrooij's book. I got all the
way to the Schmidt camera, and find myself stymied.
First off, R&V don't say which side of the corrector they put the figure on,
but I don't believe it matters much (and in the drawing they provide, they
show it on the inside). But my real problem lies in figuring out how to enter
the parameter for teh schmidt corrector.
R&V specify 3 numbers, A, B, and C, whcih they define in terms of
Z = Ah^2 + Bh^4 + Ch^6
whereas Oslo has a radius of curvature and 4th, 6th, etc. order deformation
coefficients. I translated the R&V parameters as follows:
Since a parbola is defined by
Z = h^2/2R
I entered 2/A for the radius of curvature of the back side of the corrector
(front is flat), made the back side a conic with a conic constant of -1
(parabola), and entered the "B" and "C" terms from R&V as the 4th and 6th
order deformation coefficients.
This produces a horrible design that doesn't even come close to decent
performance. Am I doing it wrong? Attached is the Oslo file.
