2. Mirror - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mirror

   A mirror reflecting the image of a vase A first-surface mirror coated with aluminium and enhanced with dielectric coatings. The angle of the incident light (represented by both the light in the mirror and the shadow behind it) exactly matches the angle of reflection (the reflected light shining on the table). 4.5-metre (15 ft)-tall acoustic mirror near Kilnsea Grange, East Yorkshire, UK, from ...

   There are only a few sites capable of polishing the mirrors for these telescopes. SAGEM in France polished the four VLT mirrors, the two Gemini mirrors, and the 36 segments for GTC. [18] The Steward Observatory Mirror Lab cast and polished the two LBT mirrors, the two Magellan mirrors, the MMT replacement mirror, and the LSST primary/tertiary ...

4. Infinity mirror - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Infinity_mirror

   An infinity mirror effect viewed between paired mirrors in a public bathroom. The infinity mirror (also sometimes called an infinite mirror) is a configuration of two or more parallel or angled mirrors, which are arranged to create a series of smaller and smaller reflections that appear to recede to infinity. [1][2] Often the front mirror of an ...

5. Diaphragm (optics) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diaphragm_(optics)

   In optics, a diaphragm is a thin opaque structure with an opening (aperture) at its center. The role of the diaphragm is to stop the passage of light, except for the light passing through the aperture. Thus it is also called a stop (an aperture stop, if it limits the brightness of light reaching the focal plane, or a field stop or flare stop ...

6. Newtonian telescope - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Newtonian_telescope

   Newtonian telescope design. A Newtonian telescope is composed of a primary mirror or objective, usually parabolic in shape, and a smaller flat secondary mirror.The primary mirror makes it possible to collect light from the pointed region of the sky, while the secondary mirror redirects the light out of the optical axis at a right angle so it can be viewed with an eyepiece.

8. Primary mirror - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Primary_mirror

   The largest optical telescope in the world as of 2009 to use a non-segmented single-mirror as its primary mirror is the 8.2 m (27 ft) Subaru telescope of the National Astronomical Observatory of Japan, located in Mauna Kea Observatory on Hawaii since 1997; [3] [better source needed] however, this is not the largest diameter single mirror in a telescope, the U.S./German/Italian Large Binocular ...

9. Perfect mirror - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Perfect_mirror

   Dielectric mirrors are glass or other substrates on which one or more layers of dielectric material are deposited, to form an optical coating. A very complex dielectric mirror can reflect up to 99.999% of the light incident upon it, for a narrow range of wavelengths and angles. A simpler mirror may reflect 99.9% of the light, but may cover a ...
