The near Field Refractor
نویسندگان
چکیده
We present an abstract method in the setting of compact metric spaces which is applied to solve a number of problems in geometric optics. In particular, we solve the one source near field refraction problem. That is, we construct surfaces separating two homogenous media with different refractive indices that refract radiation emanating from the origin into a target domain contained in an n − 1 dimensional hypersurface. The input and output energy are prescribed. This implies the existence of lenses focusing radiation in a prescribed manner.

Light Beams Refractor
In this note, our goal is to find a refractor lens that refracts all prescribed light rays, in different directions, to the origin. Similar problems have been studied recently; see [2], [3] and [4]. The main difference between this problem and the near field refractor problem, which was studied in [4], is that now we are given the initial positions and directions of light beams and we are looki...
متن کاملRegularity for the near Field Parallel Refractor and Reflector Problems
We prove local C1,α estimates of solutions for the parallel refractor and reflector problems under local assumptions on the target set Σ, and no assumptions are made on the smoothness of the densities.
متن کاملRelationship between head wave amplitudes and seismic refraction velocities to detect lateral variation in the refractor
Refractor ambiguities are big problem in seismic refraction method especially in seismic engineering. There can be hidden subsurface geological phenomena such as hidden faults and shear zones which are not simply predicted by the travel-time graph or some geophysical methods. Head wave amplitudes are used to show the resolution of refractor ambiguities and the existence of anisotropy in complex...
متن کاملSpatial and temporal relations between magnetic elements and bright points in the photospheric network
28 min time series of high resolution magnetograms, continuum filtergrams and line core filtergrams have been obtained in the line FeI 6173, with the 50 cm refractor of the Pic du Midi Observatory, in a quiet area near the solar disk center. Their comparison shows that every bright point of the photospheric network coincides better than 0”5 with a magnetic element of small size (smaller than 1”...

The increased accuracy which can be obtained in the determination of proper motions of the stars by long-focus instruments makes it necessary to take into account quantities which otherwise could be neglected. When the probable error of the motion in a coordinate becomes as small as 0.003 or 0004, we may no longer neglect systematic errors of this size or larger, if they can possibly be determi...
