Semiuniform asymptotic expansions of the diffraction integral

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

Previous asymptotic expansions of the diffraction integral are valid for only certain regions in the observation plane. This paper gives a method for calculating semiuniform expansions that are valid in the intermediate regions. They are especially useful and simple for the near-axis field of a circularly symmetric aperture. The case for circularly symmetric ρ2ν aberrations is presented.
