Simple mirror corrector for a huge fast speed parabolic mirror
The aberration theory behind this very
simple design is explained in my
Slideshare post at
https://www.slideshare.net/operacrazy/gregorian-telescope-designs
It is remarkable that the extremely high level of
correction (on a slightly curved image surface) of this
huge very fast f/.7 speed parabolic mirror is
accomplished with just three subaperture corrector
elements – the small conic secondary mirror (a pure
conic, easily testable at its foci) only 10% of the
diameter of the big primary mirror, and two tiny (in
relative size) low order aspheric mirrors near the
intermediate image.

Mirror corrector for a 10 meter fast speed parabola

  • 1. Dave Shafer David Shafer Optical Design Fairfield, CT 06824 203-259-1431 shaferlens@sbcglobal.net Simple mirror corrector for a huge fast speed parabolic mirror
  • 2. The aberration theory behind this very simple design is explained in my Slideshare post at https://www.slideshare.net/operacrazy/gregorian-telescope-designs It is remarkable that the extremely high level of correction (on a slightly curved image surface) of this huge very fast f/.7 speed parabolic mirror is accomplished with just three subaperture corrector elements – the small conic secondary mirror (a pure conic, easily testable at its foci) only 10% of the diameter of the big primary mirror, and two tiny (in relative size) low order aspheric mirrors near the intermediate image.
