Homework Statement



Hello!
I need to find a local linear increase in the field of the lens.

I have Listing of Field Curvature Data.

It contains vectors of - Y height, Tan Shift, Sag Shift, Real Height, Ref. Height, Distortion.

I can not understand how these data get what I need.

Homework Equations



Local linear increase in the field of the lens is the ratio of the size of a small object (in the limit of the size tends to zero) located at any distance from the lens center (in this case, the axis Y) to its size in the middle of the field.

The Attempt at a Solution



Real Height/Ref. Height ratio is close to Distortion, but not equal, may be it is answer?

I'm sorry you are not finding help at the moment. Is there any additional information you can share with us?
 
These data appear as those that are presented here:
http://www.johnloomis.org/eop601/designs/kidger1/zemax.html

In section Listing of Field Curvature Data.

Real Height/Ref. Height ratio is not the answer.
Relative local linear increase in the center of Y = 0 is taken as 1.

Sorry, that's all.
 
Thread 'Need help understanding this figure on energy levels'
This figure is from "Introduction to Quantum Mechanics" by Griffiths (3rd edition). It is available to download. It is from page 142. I am hoping the usual people on this site will give me a hand understanding what is going on in the figure. After the equation (4.50) it says "It is customary to introduce the principal quantum number, ##n##, which simply orders the allowed energies, starting with 1 for the ground state. (see the figure)" I still don't understand the figure :( Here is...

The last problem I posted on QM made it into advanced homework help, that is why I am putting it here. I am sorry for any hassle imposed on the moderators by myself. Part (a) is quite easy. We get $$\sigma_1 = 2\lambda, \mathbf{v}_1 = \begin{pmatrix} 0 \\ 0 \\ 1 \end{pmatrix} \sigma_2 = \lambda, \mathbf{v}_2 = \begin{pmatrix} 1/\sqrt{2} \\ 1/\sqrt{2} \\ 0 \end{pmatrix} \sigma_3 = -\lambda, \mathbf{v}_3 = \begin{pmatrix} 1/\sqrt{2} \\ -1/\sqrt{2} \\ 0 \end{pmatrix} $$ There are two ways...
