This second edition of Mounting Optics in Optical Instruments updates and expands the prior discussions of pertinent technologies for interfacing optics with their mechanical surroundings in optical instruments. The general format of the first edition is maintained,but some topics are repositioned to fit better into the contexts of the various chapters.
Two new chapters—one with expanded coverage of the design, fabrication, and mounting of metallic mirrors, and another dealing with aligning single and multiple lenses and reflecting optical systems—have been added.The entire text of the book has been rewritten to help clarify many technical details,to correct some misleading statements in the earlier version, and to add new material. Allequations that carry over from the first edition have been checked and a few corrections made. New equations have been added as appropriate to enhance the technical content of the new edition.
