Page 69 - The position of the point P' conjugate to a given point P may now be determined by a geometrical construction. Let F, F' be the focal points, H, H' the principal points. If we can trace two rays emerging from P after refraction by the lens, these will meet in the required point P. For one of these rays choose the ray PR parallel to the axis, meeting the...
Page 30 - Two such planes are said to be conjugate to one another with respect to the lens, and are called briefly Conjugate Planes.
