Trace a Ray through the System
Introduction
For this example, we consider a simple beam compressor, which consists of two confocal
paraboloidal mirrors such that, when perfectly aligned, a flat input beam of radius R is
compressed to a flat output beam of radius R/C, where C is the compression ratio. The
driver program BeamComp() illustrates how to use AESOP to create an optical system and
trace a ray through it. BeamComp() is written so that we can apply up to two independent
perturbations -- translation perpendicular to the optical axis or rotation -- to either or both
optical elements. We can also skew the input wavefront. In this example, we'll rotate and
translate the primary mirror. First, we load the driver program:
