Optical sine theorem

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

In optics, the optical sine theorem states that the products of the index, height, and sine of the slope angle of a ray in object space and its corresponding ray in image space are equal. That is:

n 0 y 0 a 0 = n i y i a i {\displaystyle n_{0}y_{0}a_{0}=n_{i}y_{i}a_{i}} {\displaystyle n_{0}y_{0}a_{0}=n_{i}y_{i}a_{i}}
