Difference between Cassegrain reflector and James Gregory (mathematician)

Cassegrain reflector vs. James Gregory (mathematician)

The Cassegrain reflector is a combination of a primary concave mirror and a secondary convex mirror, often used in optical telescopes and radio antennas. James Gregory FRS (November 1638 – October 1675) was a Scottish mathematician and astronomer.

Similarities between Cassegrain reflector and James Gregory (mathematician)

Cassegrain reflector and James Gregory (mathematician) have 7 things in common (in Unionpedia): Astronomer, Parabolic reflector, Primary mirror, Radio telescope, Reflecting telescope, Refracting telescope, Spherical aberration.

Astronomer

An astronomer is a scientist in the field of astronomy who concentrates their studies on a specific question or field outside the scope of Earth.

Parabolic reflector

A parabolic (or paraboloid or paraboloidal) reflector (or dish or mirror) is a reflective surface used to collect or project energy such as light, sound, or radio waves.

Reflecting telescope

A reflecting telescope (also called a reflector) is a telescope that uses a single or a combination of curved mirrors that reflect light and form an image.

Refracting telescope

A refracting telescope (also called a refractor) is a type of optical telescope that uses a lens as its objective to form an image (also referred to a dioptric telescope).

Spherical aberration

Spherical aberration is an optical effect observed in an optical device (lens, mirror, etc.) that occurs due to the increased refraction of light rays when they strike a lens or a reflection of light rays when they strike a mirror near its edge, in comparison with those that strike close to the centre.
