Principle

Demonstrate that aberrations exist on a concave mirror if the light beams are not close to the axis.

 

Benefits

  • minimal preparation time
  • light-intense halogen lamp
  • easy teaching by using the demo board for demonstration
  • ideal complement to analog student experiments by directly comparable devices

 

Tasks

Observation of the reflected beams that are close to and very far away from the optical axis.
