  2. Curved mirror - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Curved_mirror

    A convex mirror diagram showing the focus, focal length, centre of curvature, principal axis, etc. A convex mirror or diverging mirror is a curved mirror in which the reflective surface bulges towards the light source. [1] Convex mirrors reflect light outwards, therefore they are not used to focus light.

  3. Laurent Cassegrain - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Laurent_Cassegrain

    Light path in a Cassegrain Reflector. The Cassegrain reflector is a reflecting telescope design that solved the problem of viewing an image without obstructing the primary mirror by using a convex secondary mirror on the optical axis to bounce the light back through a hole in the primary mirror thus permitting the light to reach an eyepiece.

  4. Plane mirror - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plane_mirror

    Plane mirrors are the only type of mirror for which an object produces an image that is virtual, erect and of the same size as the object in all cases irrespective of the shape, size and distance from mirror of the object however same is possible for other types of mirror (concave and convex) but only for a specific conditions.

  5. Newton's reflector - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Newton's_reflector

    He added to his reflector what is the hallmark of the design of a "Newtonian telescope", a secondary "diagonal" mirror near the primary mirror's focus to reflect the image at 90° angle to an eyepiece mounted on the side of the telescope. This unique addition allowed the image to be viewed with minimal obstruction of the objective mirror.

  6. Reflecting telescope - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reflecting_telescope

    A number of variations are common, with varying numbers of mirrors of different types. The Kutter (named after its inventor Anton Kutter) style uses a single concave primary, a convex secondary and a plano-convex lens between the secondary mirror and the focal plane, when needed (this is the case of the catadioptric Schiefspiegler). One ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nasmyth_telescope

    The twin 10-meter telescopes at W. M. Keck Observatory in Hawaii, the 8.2-meter Subaru Telescope sited next to them, the four 8.2-meter Unit Telescopes of ESO's Very Large Telescope and their predecessor the 3.6-meter New Technology Telescope are notable examples that support an array of specialized instruments on their Nasmyth platforms, with a similar design being used for the future Thirty ...

  8. Cassegrain reflector - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cassegrain_reflector

    Light path in a Cassegrain reflecting telescope. The Cassegrain reflector is a combination of a primary concave mirror and a secondary convex mirror, often used in optical telescopes and radio antennas, the main characteristic being that the optical path folds back onto itself, relative to the optical system's primary mirror entrance aperture.

  9. Optical telescope - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Optical_telescope

    The Large Binocular Telescope at the Mount Graham International Observatory in Arizona uses two curved mirrors to gather light. An optical telescope gathers and focuses light mainly from the visible part of the electromagnetic spectrum, to create a magnified image for direct visual inspection, to make a photograph, or to collect data through electronic image sensors.
