    Switching between frames of reference

    hey :) So, I'm trying to switch between from one frame of reference to another, for a rotation of a 3d object. First of all, the object is rotated, through 2 perpendicular axis. Now, I need to model that rotation in another set of predefined Euler rotations. In other words, imagine a...

    Optical Lens Selection for 612nm Laser Source

    Hi, I'm trying to set up a lens system as follows: - Laser source 612nm - This passes through an apature to act as a spatial filter... - then through non-reflective glass onto a crystal of diameter upto 150um - the lens must then take the diffraction pattern from this crystal upto...
