Book Synopsis Field Guide to Geometrical Optics by : John E. Greivenkamp
Download or read book Field Guide to Geometrical Optics written by John E. Greivenkamp. This book was released on 2004. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This Field Guide derives from the treatment of geometrical optics that has evolved from both the undergraduate and graduate programs at the Optical Sciences Center at the University of Arizona. The development is both rigorous and complete, and it features a consistent notation and sign convention. This volume covers Gaussian imagery, paraxial optics, first-order optical system design, system examples, illumination, chromatic effects, and an introduction to aberrations. The appendices provide supplemental material on radiometry and photometry, the human eye, and several other topics.
