Chapter 10, Problem 19EAP
To determine
To check:
Whether the statement stating that in the next few years, by observing the transits of certain planets, astronomers will be able to confirm all the planet detections created with the use of astrometric and Doppler methods, makes sense or does not make sense

two satellites are in circular orbits around the Earth. Satellite A is at an altitude equal to the Earth's radius, while satellite B is at an altitude equal to twice the Earth's radius. What is the ratio of their periods, Tb/Ta
Fresnel lens: You would like to design a 25 mm diameter blazed Fresnel zone plate with a first-order power of
+1.5 diopters. What is the lithography requirement (resolution required) for making this lens that is designed
for 550 nm? Express your answer in units of μm to one decimal point.
Fresnel lens: What would the power of the first diffracted order of this lens be at wavelength of 400 nm?
Express your answer in diopters to one decimal point.
Eye: A person with myopic eyes has a far point of 15 cm. What power contact lenses does she need to correct
her version to a standard far point at infinity? Give your answer in diopter to one decimal point.
Paraxial design of a field flattener. Imagine your optical system has Petzal curvature of the field with radius
p. In Module 1 of Course 1, a homework problem asked you to derive the paraxial focus shift along the axis
when a slab of glass was inserted in a converging cone of rays. Find or re-derive that result, then use it to
calculate the paraxial radius of curvature of a field flattener of refractive index n that will correct the observed
Petzval. Assume that the side of the flattener facing the image plane is plano. What is the required radius of
the plano-convex field flattener? (p written as rho )

Set the wavelength to the (default) 0.55 microns and a single on-axis field point at infinite object distance. Set the image distance to 200 mm. Make the first surface the stop insure that the lens is fully filled (that is, that the entrance beam has a radius of 10 mm). Use the lens-maker's equation to calculate initial glass curvatures assuming you want a symmetric, bi-convex lens with an effective focal length of 200 mm. Get this working and examine the RMS spot size using the "Text" tab of the Spot Diagram analysis tab (OpticStudio) or the Spd command of the text widnow (OSLO). You should find the lens is far from diffraction limited, with a spot size of more than 100 microns. Now let's optimize this lens. In OpticStudio, create a default merit function optimizing on spot size.Then insert one extra line at the top of the merit function. Assign the…arrow_forward
