eng Abstract:
In particle optics paraxial ray tracing (solution of the paraxial trajectory equation) provides the basic imaging properties of an optical system and real ray tracing (solution of the equation of motion with time as the parameter) gives the complete particle paths including all aberrations. While there are methods of computing the aberration coefficients directly, for example by evaluating the aberration integrals, ray tracing can also be used for this purpose.
