Project Thunderdome #8

Open Jashcraf opened 4 years ago

Jashcraf commented 4 years ago

Design a Ritchey-Chretien Objective (+ an optic of your choosing!)

Special Surfaces

Specifications Aperture Area = 5000mm^2 [ 80mm circular equivalent flux ] FOV = +/- 0.2 deg Wavelength = [350-450]nm Detector 5x5mm 5um pixel pitch Spot Size Geometrical Radius < Airy Radius at all fields (If not, 2x diffraction limit)

Deliverables: Push the FOV Image Quality Allowed Degradation < 4* Airy Radius 4 Intermediate design evaluations, record your spot size for all field

So, there exists a design. Unfortunately, the design exists in the future and is not with us yet. In gestation. Will be submitted soon. My apologies.
