Astronomical Optics and Elasticity Theory provides a very thorough
and comprehensive account of what is known in this field. After an
extensive introduction to optics and elasticity, the book discusses
variable curvature and multimode deformable mirrors, as well as, in
depth, active optics, its theory and applications. Further, optical
design utilizing the Schmidt concept and various types of Schmidt
correctors, as well as the elasticity theory of thin plates and
shells are elaborated upon. Several active optics methods are
developed for obtaining aberration corrected diffraction gratings.
Further, a weakly conical shell theory of elasticity is elaborated
for the aspherization of grazing incidence telescope mirrors. The
very didactic and fairly easy-to-read presentation of the topic
will enable PhD students and young researchers to actively
participate in challenging astronomical optics and instrumentation
projects.
