Purpose: help interpretation of features visible in the real beam study.
context
- Figure 1: Distribution on the image plane (array) calculated by the ray tracing algorithm of rays coming from various fields (directions) evenly distributed on a grid pattern on the entrance pupil. Circle diameter = 39 mm, Angular distance between 2 fields diametrically opposed = 2.8'.
Figure 2: Spot diagram = Zoom on the ray tracing distribution of each test field (colored dots) showing the extend of the aberrations of the system as compared to the diffractions effects materialized by the contour of the 1st Airy dark ring (black circles). Typically when the aberration spots are enclosed in the Airy ring, the system is diffraction limited. Oval shape of Airy ring are a symptom of pupil aberrations.
PSF
