Constructor Detail

RayAberration

public RayAberration(OpticalGroup g,
                     double lambda)

Form a RayAberration object for a specified OpticalGroup at specified wavelength

Parameters:

g - the lens group.

lambda - the wavelength

RayAberration

public RayAberration(OpticalGroup g)

Form a RayAberration object for a specified OpticalGroup at current DEFAULT_WAVELENGTH

Parameters:

g - the lens group.

Method Detail

setRayNumber

public void setRayNumber(int n)

Method to set the number of rays, so point on plots.

Parameters:

n - the number of rays.

setWaveLength

public void setWaveLength(double lambda)

Method to set the wavelength of the analysis.

Parameters:

lambda - the wavelength

setPlot

public void setPlot(ptolemy.plot.Plot p)

Method to set the Plot object

Parameters:

p - the Plot object on which plots are formed

getPlot

public ptolemy.plot.Plot getPlot()

Method get the current Plot

Returns:

Plot containing the graphs.

transversePlot

public ptolemy.plot.Plot transversePlot(double theta)

Method to give a default transverse ray aberration plot at specified angle using the design wavelength in the geometric back focal plane of the lens.

Parameters:

theta - field angle.

transversePlot

public ptolemy.plot.Plot transversePlot(double theta,
