✦ Synopsis


Excellent study provides detailed account of the Hamiltonian treatment of aberration theory in geometrical optics. Important for design of laser cavities, electron optics, crystal physics, other areas. Author deals in logical progression with many classes of optical systems, defined in terms of the symmetries they possess. Detailed solutions. 1970 edition.
