The Corrector of Volosov
Rail, Zdeněk ; Jareš, Daniel ; Lédl, Vít
Soon after discovery of meniscus telescope of Maksutov optical properties of doublet corrector was researched. Doublet was placed into parallel light beam in front of common optical system. Afocal corrector composed of two thin lenses of the same glass enables to correct optical aberrations of many systems and to reach radical improvement of their imaging properties. Compared to Schmidt plate doublet corrector possesses only spherical surfaces and its manufacturing tolerances are much freer than meniscus of Maksutov. Derivation of main equations was performed by Volosov, Galpern and Grebenshchikova in 1943. Our paper deals with optical aberrations of the system consisting of common aspherical mirror and corrector of Volosov. These systems are less known among opticians and astronomers but enable construction of fast cameras and telescopes.
