Availability Information

We source books from suppliers in Australia and overseas. For books we don't currently have in stock, the time it takes to get them from our suppliers can vary widely - from a few days to a few months - so we check each book with each supplier to determine the expected time it will take to be supplied to us.

We then advise you accordingly. If the time taken to get any book is too long for you, you can let us know and we will cancel or adjust your order, and refund as required.

This book explores the lenses analogous to conic mirrors, the only kind of mirrors free of spherical aberration. With new ideas and results appearing in the field of optics, this second edition presents an in-depth look at lenses free of spherical aberrations and uses illustrative examples. Based on ideas from the first edition, this text contains six new chapters, which are not limited to stigmatic lenses but also discuss aplanatic lenses, stigmatic mirror systems and aplanatic mirrors. A newly added fourth part studies stigmatism and aplanetism in systems made purely with mirrors. The characteristics of these lenses and the equations that describe them are also studied. Finally, several implications of these lenses are analysed, such as freeform lenses, optical systems, axicons, telescopes and more. Scenarios with on-axis objects and off-axis objects are considered. Cases where the object is real or virtual and the image is real or virtual are also presented.

Key Features

Provides worked examples throughout Includes end-of-chapter problems Provides mathematical tools such as Mathematica Discusses physical concepts Has been revised and expanded to discuss stigmatic mirror systems
