Photoreceptor Optics

The above attention shows that at this time the various experi­ psychological evidence on playstation in animals could be quantitatively defined in the limits of the "universal" photoreceptor membrane idea. after all, lifestyles of preferential orientation of the soaking up dipoles within the tubuli of the rhabdomeres cannot be completely rejected.

II. Reflexion at a Spherical Surface A. PRINCIPAL FOCUS AND FOCAL LENGTH A spherical reflecting surface has no unique optical axis but any convenient line through the centre of curvature may be regarded as a reference axis and its intersection with the surface as the vertex of the mirror. A concave mirror is shown in Fig. 5, C being the centre of curvature, XX the reference axis, and A the vertex. An incident ray parallel to the axis will be deviated towards it after reflexion, the reflected ray intersecting it at F \ 52 A.

G. BENNETT AND J. L. FKANCIS Finally, by replacing the quantities in Eq. 5) with the corresponding vergences and catoptric power as defined by Eq. 4), we can once more obtain the relationship. I! = L + F F. MAGNIFICATION FORMULAE 1. TRANSVERSE MAGNIFICATION It will be seen from Fig. 7 that an object and its image subtend equal angles at the vertex of the surface, which means that their sizes must be proportional to their distances from the mirror. 7) This confirms the general validity of the vergence form of this equation.

Hence, the image-vergence after the first refraction becomes the object-vergence for the second refraction. That is to say, L2 = Lx On refraction at the second surface we have L : = L 2 + F2 = L± + Fx + F2 = L^F since F = F1 + F2. Finally, on considering the lens as a whole we can drop the subscripts. 10) It is important to remember that positive values of L and L' invariably denote convergence to a virtual object or real image; while negative values denote divergence from a real object or a virtual image.
