A method of determining the angular direction represented by a point in the directions-image of an object under the microscope
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 14 March 2018
Extract
The determination of the direction in which the light illuminating a point in a directions-image (the so-called image in convergent light) was travelling when it reached the objective has hitherto been carried out by first measuring the position of the point in the image and thence calculating the angular direction it represents. It is usually assumed that the distance of a point in the image from the centre of the field is in proportion to the sine of the angle between the path of the light that illuminates the point and the axis of the microscope.
