Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book examines the accuracy and conditions of optical instruments designed for precise angular measurements, particularly for telescopic and spectroscopic uses. It builds upon prior works in the field of optics, including research on the resolving power of prism trains and aberration effects on image distortion. The author explores instrumental and operational conditions that can introduce errors into measurements, such as irregularities of optical surfaces, varying obliquity, temperature variations, and chromatic dispersion. In the process, the book sheds light on the relationship between the physical nature of light and the accuracy of optical instruments. The author concludes that the accuracy of optical measurements is ultimately limited by the constancy of the differential effect of wave disturbances on the measured images, rather than by the absolute amount of aberration. This book is of particular interest to those involved in the design, calibration, and use of optical instruments for scientific research and precision measurements. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. N° de réf. du vendeur 9781333417161_0
