TOCOSMO VIII. A key test of systematics in the hierarchical method of time-delay cosmography

Frédéric Courbin

The largest source of systematic errors in the time-delay cosmography method likely arises from the lens model mass distribution, where an inaccurate choice of model could in principle bias the value of H-0. A Bayesian hierarchical framework has been propo ...

ON WAVEFRONT ABERRATIONS IN ASYMMETRIC AND MULTIPLE APERTURE OPTICAL SYSTEMS

Alessandro Grosso

The present work deals with monochromatic wavefront aberrations in optical systems without symmetries. The treatment begins with a class of systems characterized by misaligned spherical surfaces whose behavior is analyzed using the wavefront aberration exp ...

Full field dependence of primary aberrations in perturbed double-plane symmetric systems with a circular pupil

Toralf Scharf, Alessandro Grosso

This paper deals with the theory of primary aberrations for perturbed double-plane symmetric optical systems consisting of a combination of tilted and decentered surfaces and a circular pupil. First, the analytical expressions describing the full field beh ...

Organic-inorganic-hybrid-polymer microlens arrays with tailored optical characteristics and multi-focal properties

Jürgen Brugger, Victor Javier Cadarso Busto, Loïc Jacot-Descombes

Plano-convex microlens arrays of organic-inorganic polymers with tailored optical properties are presented. The fine-tuning of each microlens within an array is achieved by confining inkjet printed drops of the polymeric ink onto pre-patterned substrates. ...

Automatic procedure for aberration compensation in digital holographic microscopy and applications to specimen shape compensation

Pierre Marquet, Christian Depeursinge, Jonas Kühn, Tristan Colomb, Etienne Cuche, Florian Charrière, Nicolas Aspert, Frédéric Montfort

We present a procedure that compensates for phase aberrations in digital holographic microscopy by computing a polynomial phase mask directly from the hologram. The phase-mask parameters are computed automatically without knowledge of physical values such ...
